Amidst tensions between India and China, the Indian government has banned 118 China-based apps on 2nd September because 'they are engaged in activities which are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defense of India, the security of the state and public order.' As you may know by now, among those apps, the two most notable names include PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite, two of the most popular mobile games in India.
Officials at PUBG Mobile have pushed out the latest PUBG Mobile 0.18.0 update on the Google Play Store for Android and the App Store for iOS users; however, it is still not showing for certain users. So, if you are one of the users who still can't find the latest update on the respective application store, do not fret.
With the ban coming into effect, all apps and games mentioned on the list have been deleted from the two app stores, including PUBG Mobile. Adobe photoshop lightroom mac download.
