MetaMask has been added back to the Apple App Store.
A comment from an account apparently belonging to a MetaMask representative responded quickly, confirming that the team is aware of the issue.
“We’re aware, working on figuring out what happened, and resolving the issue ASAP,” replied @tayvano_, believed to be MetaMask lead product manager Taylor Monahan. “Please report and let us know if you see any fake MetaMask apps that are in the App Store. The biggest harm in removing legit apps is it makes room for malicious apps and phishers.”
Elo Gimenez, global public relations director for ConsenSys, confirmed the removal and told Decrypt that the issue is not related to any malicious activity.
“Importantly, this is not a security concern, and there is no compromise or action required on users’ part,” Gimenez said. “Additionally, it’s not related to the app’s functionality.”
He also reiterated Monahan’s request for help from the crypto community.
The team behind the popular Ethereum-native wallet warned earlier today that its application was removed from Apple’s app store.
However, the issues seem to be resolved now, and MetaMask can now be downloaded by Apple users once again.
