The app had received over a million downloads, courtesy anti-China sentiments brewing in the country.

According to CNBCTV18, Google “red-flagged [Mitron] app and decided to suspend it for violating its ‘spam and minimum functionality’ policy”. Also ‘copying content from other apps without adding any original content or value’ is against Google Play Store policies.
