Aptoide Removes ‘Popcorn Time’ and ‘Showbox’ Apps Following Piracy Lawsuit

Aptoide, a third-party alternative to Google’s official Play Store, has removed the popular Popcorn Time and Showbox listings from its repository, reports TorrentFreak.

A few weeks ago, Aptoide was sued by two movie companies: TBV Productions, LLC and Hunter Killer Productions, Inc who are behind the movies “I Feel Pretty” and “Hunter Killer” respectively, for helping massive piracy.

According to the complaint, the company specifically induces, encourages and promotes the use of the Showbox and Popcorn Time app for blatant copyright infringement.
