Zynn, the TikTok clone that shot to the top of the app store charts in late May, was pulled from Apple’s App Store on Monday. The controversial app had already been removed from the Google Play store, following a series of complaints from influencers who claimed Zynn had uploaded content they had published elsewhere without their permission. Others also said they found profiles of themselves on Zynn even though they had never signed up, Wired reported earlier this month.
Though Google at the time didn’t comment on Zynn’s removal, it’s likely that the plagiarism complaints played a role in its decision to remove the app. An Apple spokesperson had also then confirmed it was looking into the issues around Zynn.
