Michigan HB6244 regulates app stores to ensure age-appropriate content for minors.
Michigan HB6244, known as the "app store accountability act," mandates app store providers to verify the age of account holders and obtain parental consent for minors. It prohibits app store providers from blocking access to apps downloaded before the act's effective date unless there is a significant change to the app or parental consent is revoked. The act also restricts app store providers from blocking access to preinstalled applications and requires them to take measures against unlawful, obscene, or sexually explicit material for minors.
