Data Sources

We cite 35 sources, mostly Google, Apple, Android, Chrome and Firebase documentation, the app stores' policies and regulators' pages. The table lists each one with the date its page shows and the pages that use it.

How we choose sources

  • Platform documentation for platform behavior: Android Developers, Apple Developer, Chrome for Developers, Firebase and Google Search Central.
  • Store policy pages for store rules: Google Play Console Help and Apple's App Review Guidelines.
  • Government and regulator pages for market facts and help lines.
  • The Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) Cheat Sheet Series for general web security practice.

Dates

Where a page shows a "last updated" or revision date, we record it. Where it does not, we write "no date shown". Everything in the table was read on October 28, 2026.

Sources we do not use

Vendor marketing pages, unattributed statistics, operator press releases as evidence of platform behavior, and search engine forums as evidence of policy.
