A TTP analysis finds dozens of nudify apps in Apple and Google app stores via search, despite company policy prohibiting them; the apps earned $122M+ in revenue

Apple and Google have a nudify app problem — and it's a lucrative one. A new analysis from the Tech Transparency Project (TTP) found dozens of apps that let users create nonconsensual sexualized images of people sitting right there in both app stores, easily discoverable through search.

This despite both companies having explicit policies that prohibit such apps.

The kicker: these apps have collectively raked in more than $122 million in revenue. That's a staggering number for a category that technically shouldn't exist on either platform.

The findings raise serious questions about how effectively Apple and Google enforce their own app store rules. Both companies have long positioned themselves as gatekeepers who carefully vet what makes it onto their platforms. Yet these apps apparently slipped through — or were simply tolerated — while generating nine-figure revenue.
