It is announced that Bitdefender's Clueful, the privacy app, has been removed from Apple's App Store. Apple informed Bitdefender's product development team of the removal. iPhone owners who already use Clueful privacy may continue to do so.
Clueful was created under the belief that iPhone owners should be able to learn which apps may be behaving unscrupulously with their personal data. The Clueful team reaffirms its commitment to continued development of Clueful and will resubmit to Apple.
"While most app developers use this information for legitimate purposes, others might not. Clueful was the best way for iPhone owners to know the difference. While Clueful remains off the App Store, we are working hard toward understanding why our app was removed and to develop the app to improve its chances of staying there," said Catalin Cosoi, Chief Security Researcher, Bitdefender.
