<p>After suspending MetaMask's Android app last week, Google has now restored it.</p> <p>MetaMask <a href="https://twitter.com/metamask_io/status/1212431777047830528?s=20">announced</a> the news on Sunday, saying that Google took the decision after “careful consideration.”</p> <p>Last week, Google <a href="https://www.theblockcrypto.com/linked/51556/google-suspends-metamasks-android-client-rejects-appeal">suspended</a> MetaMask’s app, citing its <a href="https://play.google.com/about/restricted-content/financial-services/#!?zippy_activeEl=cryptocurrencies#cryptocurrencies">policy</a> of banning cryptocurrency mining apps from its Android store. MetaMask does not offer mining services; it is a browser extension that allows users to run Ethereum decentralized applications (dapps).</p> <p>MetaMask had also filed an appeal, which Google rejected at the time. As the app has now been restored, MetaMask <a href="https://twitter.com/metamask_io/status/1212431779715416065?s=20">said</a> the experience has made it “more resilient” and “stronger.” </p> <p>MetaMask has an estimated <a href="https://www.theblockcrypto.com/daily/24839/metamask-releases-metrics-that-show-how-its-being-used">264,000</a> monthly active users. The app has been <a href="https://www.theblockcrypto.com/linked/11161/fake-metamask-app-hiding-clipper-malware-has-been-found-on-google-play">impersonated</a> several times in the past, attempting to retrieve victims' crypto-related credentials.</p>
