So I published an app in the Google Play on February, but now it's telling me this:
What I understood from that message was that I won't be able to update my app and it's going to be removed from the Google Play.
Was it because I used TinyDB?
And if you're wondering why I used tiny DB was because these reasons: To save the player's score in total, save the player's last game score, and to save the player's nickname.
So if that's the problem, how do I program my app the way they're telling me to do?
