Let me tell you, Friends app was recently removed from Google Play. Google removed it from its platform for violating the ‘spam and minimum functionality’ policy. According to Google policy, copying content from another app without any original change is a violation of Google’s rules. The policy states that such apps would be allowed, providing users with an app-like experience already on Google Play. The app should provide a better experience to users through its unique content and services.

It is also important to mention that the Friends app is very similar to TikTok in use. However, the reason for gaining so much popularity in such a short time is that on this app you get exactly the same experience that used to be on Tiktok. Tiktok had hit the target of people due to many controversies, due to which people started installing it by giving it a low rating.

Initial reports had stated that the Friends app is the Indian version of TicketLock, but later it became clear that it was an app source code purchased from Pakistani software developer company Qboxus.
