A day after Facebook was dinged for shady iOS distribution techniques of its data-collecting research app, Google was discovered using the same methods for its own app.

Google has found itself in hot water for a research app that may have violated Apple’s policies by collecting user data in exchange for gift cards.

The tech giant said it has now disabled Screenwise Meter“audience measurement” app – which voluntarily collects data from users’ phones, browsers and even routers – from iOS devices.
