Didn't Microsoft publicly commit to taking a more active approach in vetting apps?
I haven't seen any sign of that yet.
As an example, if I look at the New+Rising chart, 3 of the first 13 are obvious fake Avast Antivirus apps. What's even more annoying is any attempt to report them results in an error. This is on WP 8.1.
So, is it a case of MS not getting it done, or is it a case of the "old" store being forgotten as they move over to universal apps and the new store of Windows 10? Either way, it's frustrating as hell. What does it say about the app store when I refuse to even try an app unless It's been reviewed, or mentioned, by a reputable source elsewhere?
Anyway...my rant for the day. Do with it what you will....
