Before you install, check the app’s description, its source or developer if listed, and whether the permissions it asks for match what you expect the app to do. If the source or behavior looks suspicious, you can report the listing to BuildStore Support.

How to report a suspicious app

Contact BuildStore Support with the app name, the catalog link and a description of what happened. If you already installed it, include the app version if available, your iOS or iPadOS version and the exact prompt or behavior. Keep passwords and personal files out of the report.
