Tengrinews.kz - Recent legal actions against Telegram have led to speculation about the potential removal of the app from the App Store, which could result in its automatic removal from Apple devices. Tengrinews explains how to prevent the messenger from disappearing from smartphones.

What happened?

Telegram is facing legal issues in various countries, which could lead to its removal from the App Store. This would result in the automatic removal of the app from Apple devices and create difficulties for users.

Possibility of removal

Although the likelihood of Telegram being automatically removed from Apple devices is low, the risk still exists. This could happen if the app is removed from the App Store and company policy requires its removal from devices to comply with new terms of use.

How to Prepare?

To avoid potential issues with the automatic removal of Telegram, users are advised to take the following precautions:

  • Open "Settings" on your device;
  • Go to "Screen Time";

  • Tap on "Content & Privacy Restrictions".

  • Swipe the slider in the "Content & Privacy Restrictions" to enable it, if it wasn’t already enabled;

  • Go to "iTunes & App Store Purchases";
  • Find "Deleting Apps" and select "Don't Allow".

These simple steps will help protect Telegram on your device, even if it is removed from the App Store.

Earlier, Deputy Head of Germany's Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), Sinan Selen, has accused Telegram of insufficient cooperation.

Recall that the founder of Telegram was detained as part of a judicial investigation into his refusal to 'provide information necessary for lawful interception,' complicity in offenses and crimes organized on the platform (such as drug trafficking, child pornography, fraud, and money laundering by organized gangs).

French prosecutor, by order of the investigating judge, released Durov from custody for questioning and to be formally charged.

Earlier, it was reported that a criminal lawsuit had been filed against Pavel Durov in Switzerland.

The UAE has issued a demand to France regarding the arrest of Pavel Durov.
