안녕하세요.

구글에서 아래와 같은 메일을 받았는데, 어떻게 해결을 해야 할까요? 팝업을 띄워서 사용자에게 권한을 어떤 용도로 사용하는지 앱내에서 보여주라는 건가요? 아래 붉은색 부분의 표현이 참 애매하네요.

We reviewed your app, XXXX app , with package name xxxx , and noticed that it violates our developer terms.

REASON FOR WARNING: Violation of the Deceptive behavior policy

You must explain to users why you are requesting the ‘android.permission.BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN’ in your app. Apps must provide accurate disclosure of their functionality and should perform as reasonably expected by the user. Any changes to device settings must be made with the user's knowledge and consent and be easily reversible by the user.

Please complete the following actions within 7 days, or your app will be removed from Google Play:

Read through the Deceptive Device Settings Changes policy for more details, and make sure your app complies with all policies listed in the Developer Program Policies.

If you don't need the BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN permission in your app:

Remove your request for this permission from your app's manifest.

Sign in to your Play Console and upload your modified, policy compliant APK.

Or, if you need the BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN permission in your app:

Include the following snippet in your app’s store listing description: “This app uses the Device Administrator permission.”

Provide prominent user facing disclosure of this usage before asking the user to enable this permission within your app. Your disclosure must meet each of the following requirements:

Disclosure must be displayed in normal course of usage of your app. Your users should not be required to navigate into a menu or settings to view disclosure.

Disclosure must describe the functionality Device Admin permission is enabling for your app. Each security policy used with the Device Admin request must be declared in your disclosure, and each policy must be accompanied with justification for the request.

Disclosure cannot only be placed in your privacy policy, TOS or EULA.

Alternatively, you can choose to unpublish the app.

All violations are tracked. Serious or repeated violations of any nature will result in the termination of your developer account, and investigation and possible termination of related Google accounts.

The Google Play Team
