OUR ANDROID APP IS FROZEN IN CARBONITE

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

This indie app developer has been struggling to maintain access to Google Drive on its Android app due to Google's ever-changing API policies and security requirements. This has resulted in a frustrating and costly process, forcing the company to pay for an annual audit. The situation has become untenable, so the developer is now focusing on other platforms and a B2B model where it can control its software development and avoid the complexities and costs associated with the Android ecosystem.
