The app, Siri for Android, was removed from the Android Market on the night of December 28. It used Apple's Siri icon and offered services such as massage with stockings in Chongqing and part-time services by women in Chongqing who can come to your place. After being reported by the media, the app had been downloaded and installed by over a thousand users despite not being reviewed strictly by Google for apps outside the Android Market. Thus, developers posing as "Official App" could easily release applications suspected of copyright or trademark infringement.

Google has removed the "Official App" account. Such developer names often confuse users, making them believe that the apps released by this account are official ones.

Currently, if Android users search for this app, they can still find many third-party solutions similar to Siri, but the so-called official Siri for Android is no longer available. Other apps published by this developer, such as the Pinterest app, have also been deleted.

Sina Tech News, January 1, morning session: An application claiming to be the official Android version of Siri was briefly listed in the Google Android Market app store. However, Google soon deleted this "knock-off" app and simultaneously removed all apps released by the developer "Official App".
