Developers must now provide regulatory documentation for apps requiring approval, implement content moderation safeguards for user-generated content and AI content creation platforms, and ensure all app information and creative assets meet specific accuracy and appropriateness standards. Developers who fail to implement safeguards or remediate violations after notice may be considered in violation of the Developer Code of Conduct, potentially resulting in app removal or account termination.
