Laurie Buckhout for Congress app for iOS (production version)

Date: 09/03/2024

Description:

Today I took a look at an app called Laurie Buckhout for Congress that is available to download from the Apple App Store. This app does not have a valid (working) link to a Privacy Policy in either the app store listing, or from inside of the app.

According to Apple App Store rules, "all apps must include a link to their privacy policy in the App Store Connect metadata field and within the app in an accessible manner. 

The Apple App Store rules regarding access to privacy policies are very clear. 

Here's what the app store listing looks like:

This is the Apple App Store listing for Laurie Buckhout for Congress. Scroll down to the Privacy Policy link...

Click on the "developer's privacy policy" link...

This is obviously not a valid privacy policy.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Head to the Laurie Buckhout for Congress app for iOS Apple App Store page

2. Scroll down to the "developer's privacy policy" and "privacy policy" links

Result: The "developer's privacy policy" and "privacy policy" links on the Laurie Buckhout for Congress Apple App Store listing page do not lead to valid privacy policies 

Expected: There needs to be working privacy policy links in the Laurie Buckhout for Congress Apple App Store listing

Olive Young Global app for iOS: Google OAuth Consent Screen: User Stranded as there is No Way to Back Out

 iOS 17.6.1

Olive Young Global app for iOS (version 1.3.6)

Date: 08/15/2024

Description:

Here's an unusual problem with a Google OAuth consent screen that I have not encountered before: an app called Olive Young Global has a consent screen which the user is impossible to back out of.

Take a look:

Absolutely no way to back out of this consent screen to the app. The app needs to be forced-quit or deleted. This is a terrible end-user experience. 

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch the Olive Young Global app (version 1.3.6) for iOS

2. Select the "My" option 

3. From the Sign In page, select "Sign up with Google"

4. No way to back out of Google sign-in page

Result: There is no way for the user to back out of the Google OAuth consent screen presented by the Olive Young Global app - user is stranded on a consent screen. Exiting and re-starting the app does not return the user to the app 

Expected: There should always be a way (a visual cue) for the end user to exit out of a Google OAuth consent screen and back into an iOS app 

Launch the Olive Young Global app for iOS...

Select the "Sign in with Google" option...

No way to back out (no visual cues such as a back arrow) to alert the user how to exit.
