- At the compliance hearing in San Francisco on 13 August, Judge Donato ordered the changes within one week, by 20 August, and Google has not said whether it will appeal.
- A search for store for apps showed no third-party stores, prompting Donato to require discoverability through every reasonably phrased variation with at least 70 percent relevance.
- Google is to replace the View button with Install for third-party stores and remove an additional interstitial banner without generally eliminating safety warnings.
- Aptoide Games, operated from Lisbon, became the first rival store inside the US Play Store on 10 August.
That is not acceptable, that has to be fixed. I want every possible variation that’s even only 70 percent properly phrased.— Judge Donato, during a San Francisco hearing on remedies in the Google Android app store antitrust case
