We’ve recently been informed by the Google Play store that our developer account has been terminated and all Kaspersky apps have been removed from the store.
Google’s decision refers to recent U.S. government actions restricting the distribution and sales of Kaspersky products in the United States after September 29. Although these restrictions have no material legal effect outside the U.S., Google unilaterally decided to remove our products from Google Play ahead of September 29 – depriving users worldwide of access to industry-leading cybersecurity protection.
We believe that Google’s decision is based on overinterpretation of the U.S. restrictions, which was not backed by a confirmation from the U.S. Department of Commerce. The U.S. restrictive measures don’t prohibit the sales and distribution of Kaspersky’s products and services outside the United States. We have communicated this understanding to the U.S. Department of Commerce, and we hope to receive additional guidance from the Department shortly.
Apps that were installed from Google Play will continue to work normally and receive database updates through our cloud infrastructure. All paid app features will also continue to work. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to update or reinstall an app directly from Google Play.
To keep your mobile devices protected, we recommend downloading our apps for Android from other mobile stores – including Galaxy Store, Huawei AppGallery, Xiaomi GetApps and others, or directly from our site. The range of available Kaspersky products for Android is the same in each store. Here you can find links to all Kaspersky products for Android in other stores and instructions for installing and activating them.
