Last night (19th March) I got two emails from the Google Play store informing me that VLC Streamer had been removed from the store for breaching store rules.
No warning was given before removing VLC Streamer.
The email didn’t give much detail as to what exactly the concern was – and my hope is that it was a mistake which will be sorted through the appeal process.
I have submitted an appeal to the Google Play store, and received an automatic response which tells me that I should hear back within 72hours.
I will update this post when I get a response.
Update
Google have responded to explain that the issue is the screenshots
After re-reviewing your application we have found that your promotional screenshots uses one or more protected images that belongs to a third party (stills from copyrighted material).
I will resubmit with different screenshots. Hopefully that will provide a quick fix.
