Telegram Back on App Store After Removal for 'Inappropriate Content'

From PC Mag: Messaging app Telegram has returned to the App Store after being temporarily yanked for "inappropriate content."

Telegram and the new Telegram X apps were removed from Apple's store yesterday, Telegram Founder and CEO Pavel Durov confirmed.

"We were alerted by Apple that inappropriate content was made available to our users and both apps were taken off the App Store," Durov wrote on Twitter. "Once we have protections in place we expect the apps to be back on the App Store."

Apple did not immediately respond to PCMag's request for comment. By 11 a.m. ET this morning, Durov tweeted that the apps had returned.

"Telegram is back in the AppStore after being absent there since midnight CET. Every day 500,000+ users download Telegram for Android and another ~100,000 download Telegram for iOS," he wrote.
