Apple, Google Reportedly Grounding and Rejecting 'Flappy Bird' Clones

Google Play and the iTunes App Store reportedly filter out application that contains the word "Flappy" following the increasing number of applications that try to take advantage of "Flappy Bird" phenomenon.


Clones of this addictive game began appearing in the app stores shortly after Dong Nguyen, creator of the app, remove the popular game from the app store on February 9.

It seems that the iTunes App Store and Google Play have started reject applications that are considered clone or with the word "Flappy" in the title, although no official statement yet.

Mind Juice Media Game designer, Ken Carpenter and other mobile developers have reported that the app that use the word "Flappy" are being rejected by the Google Play  too.


Is it true that Google Play will be grounding Flappy Bird clones, or application with the word "Flappy" in the title ? because until now there are still many app that are available like Flappy Plane , Flappy Bee , Flappy Bird Flyer.
