Title, icon, description and screenshots describe what the app really does, in this version

The question Compare the listing to the facts: the capabilities and signals the binaries show, the features named. Does the listing claim a feature the app does not have, or hide one it has? Are the screenshots of this version? Is the category right? Name each mismatch.

A person or a model answers it from the app's texts and screens; the answer is kept only while the facts it saw are unchanged.

The rule, in our words

• App Review Guidelines: All metadata, including privacy information, description, screenshots and previews, must accurately reflect the app's core experience and be kept current with each version. No hidden, dormant or undocumented features; every new feature and product change must be described specifically in Notes for Review (generic notes are rejected) and be reachable by reviewers. Misleading marketing, inside or outside the App Store, is grounds for removal and account termination. If there are in-app purchases, the description, screenshots and previews must say which items need extra payment. Screenshots should show the app in use, not just title art, login or splash; previews may only be video captures of the app itself. Pick the right category and answer age-rating questions honestly. App names are limited to 30 characters; do not stuff metadata with trademarks, other app names, prices or irrelevant terms. Icons, screenshots and previews must be suitable for a 4+ rating even if the app is rated higher; "For Kids" and "For Children" are reserved for the Kids Category. Secure rights to all assets and show fictional rather than real-person data. Do not show other mobile platforms' names, icons or imagery unless there is specific, approved interactive functionality. "What's New" must clearly describe significant changes; only simple fixes may use a generic note.
• Deceptive Behavior: No deception of any kind. Title, icon, description, screenshots, category and content rating must accurately describe what the app really does; no impossible features even as a joke; no false claims of being "official" or government-affiliated. Do not mimic OS or other-app functionality or warnings. Device-setting changes outside the app need the user's knowledge and consent, must be easily reversible, may not be done for third parties or advertising, and users may not be misled or incentivised into disabling other apps (except verifiable security services). No tools to fake IDs, passports, diplomas, cards or similar. Any extra asset download must be necessary, prompted, and its size disclosed first. Significant functional changes between versions must be flagged to users and reflected in the listing; core behaviour that differs by geography or device must be prominently advertised. No hidden, dormant or undocumented features, no manipulated media presented as real, and no techniques to evade or behave differently during Google's review. "Prank" or "entertainment only" labels give no exemption.
• Mobile Unwanted Software: Software should deliver what it promises, disclose all its principal functions, explain any system changes and disclose any bundled software, and let users review and approve significant installation options. It should not misrepresent the device's state (fake infection or security warnings); it must not generate invalid ad traffic, impersonate another developer, company or app, or imply an affiliation it lacks. Personal data must be handled transparently, under the User Data policies, and over secure transport such as HTTPS. Apps must not ask or trick users into turning off device protections like Google Play Protect, must not trick users into installing them, should not interfere with other apps or device usability, should make uninstall clear, must not show ads that disrupt device use or appear outside the app without consent and attribution, should not mimic OS or other-app prompts, and must not suppress OS or other-app alerts.

Okkok never stores the stores' text. Each item above is our paraphrase, and the link is the page it rests on, verified unchanged by fingerprint on every run.

The other store

• none on the joke/prank principle. Apple also bans defamatory, sexual, religiously inflammatory content and profiting from tragedy, which Google places in other content policies not in this bundle. same
• Google's clause is specific to fake security/infection warnings; Apple's covers any false device data. partial
• Apple reserves two exact phrases; Google judges imagery and wording generally. partial
• Title length is identical (30 characters). Google additionally bans emoji and repeated special characters in title/icon/developer name, all-caps outside a brand name, unattributed testimonials, misleading icon symbols and claims of ranking, price or a Play programme; Apple additionally requires screenshots that show real use (not splash or login), previews that are app captures only, fictional rather than real-person data, no other platforms' imagery, and a specific "What's New". partial
