Meta had requested the removal of The OG App from the App Store and Google Play a while ago. This app was blocking featured ads for Instagram. However, since Instagram is a free application, it earns its income through advertisements. Therefore, OG App was violating the company’s policies by blocking it. So, what did the parties say about the issue? Is it safe to use the app? Let’s take a look at the details of the news together.
Google Play also pulled the plug on the application!
The app called The OG App was also completely removed from Google Play because it conflicted with Instagram’s interests. In addition, Instagram account information had to be entered to use the application. This situation was also a problem in terms of security due to the disclosure of information.
In addition to removing ads, the application, which has been used by many and quickly published since its first release, also had an additional customizability feature. It also enabled to turn off read receipts for messages. Although The OG App was released in September, it quickly became popular.

“This practice violates our policies. We are taking all necessary sanctions.”
The OG App, on the other hand, announced on its official Twitter account that it will not be able to serve its users for now. The application can still be installed on Android phones through illegal means. But after downloading, Instagram users are likely to have problems with security. Some Twitter users using the application announced that after a while, Instagram warned them about suspicious logins.
