You have 2 options:

- Be a partner and publish your paid app there. It then will be paid.

- Submit a DMCA notice: "9.3 DMCA Notices. If Aptoide receives a Notice according to the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), Aptoide will immediately remove the Product in question. Such notices shall be directed to Aptoide’s DMCA Agent at [email protected]." They will then unlist it.

Do you have any source on this?

I've worked in Aptoide, they aren't a virus company. They even spent a lot of resources fighting virus but that's always a cat and mouse game and given the amount of resources they have vs amount of users that can publish an apk (everyone) it gets hard.

If you think they are manipulating the published apps, you are free to fork the Aptoide client on github.com/Aptoide and create your own version.
