is this so app makers can delete their apps on my phone when they go under or get pulled or decide to rob everyone?
I don't think you even read the summary in the OP that describes exactly what this feature does. This is a feature for users for their owned devices. You can remotely install apps already. Now you can do the opposite.
Reading is a long awaited feature for most Lemmy users.
man you ain't kiddin
I thought the joke is that their real goal is to misuse it and they pretend it to be a feature.
oh good, i was starting to think everybody thought it was an actual question!
edit: lol, such hostility around here, y'all cute
you're funny.
Its for users to uninstall apps they installed.
Google has always had the ability to remote uninstall apps in the Play Store services since day 1.
