Your app is not compliant with Google Play Policies: A story from hell

The reason Catima isn't on alternative app stores isn't because there is something wrong with them, it's because there is something wrong with Google Play. On October 2nd 2021, I received an email titled: "Action Required: Your app is not compliant with Google Play Policies". After several mails back and forth, I started to get a hunch: Google was using Google Translate incorrectly. You see, Google doesn't accept apps saying they're free in the title, and if you naively throws the Dutch word "Vrij" into Google Translate, you get "Free" in English. "Action Required: Your app is not compliant with Google Play Policies". This proved my theory: Google was using Google Translate to translate the app titles instead of reviewing them with native speakers. On January 16th, 2022, Google rejected an app update because of a lack of login info.
