Amid the wave of anti-China views across the country, boycotting Chinese items has become a trend. So, mobile apps are no exception in this. People have been uninstalling Chinese apps from their phones in order to support the movement.
A few days ago we reported that an app named Remove China Apps gained popularity in India. Just after its launch on Google Play Store, lakhs of users installed this app. The Remove China Apps works by scanning phones for any Chinese apps and gives the option to delete them.
However, the app was soon removed from the Play Store because it was violating some of the policies of Google Play Store. You can still install its APK file, but we won’t advise you to do so. You can uninstall any app on your phone without the need for an app.
However, if you do not know which of the installed apps on your phone are Chinese, here’s a list of some top Chinese apps in India.
