Gel took the initiative to take down the shelves, can not cover up the "ugly" bit of information first "anxious"?

The Gel App was launched on January 19, and the official website introduction shows that it is a "close friend social app that lives with good friends in a new space through the tide play image". On February 11, a number of media reported that the Gel App surpassed WeChat in the Apple App Store free App ranking on the same day, ranking first.

However, not long after climbing to the top of the list, Gel was exposed to infringe on user privacy, and some users said that the app "leaked information, and some people around me have encountered it." In response, The Gel issued a statement saying that it did not obtain private information without the user's authorization, and that the incident was "an organized and planned slander by a competitor against the Gel App", and reported the case to the Chaoyang Branch of the Beijing Public Security Bureau on February 12.

On the evening of February 13, the Gel App posted a "letter to users" on Weibo. The company said that in recent days, the gel app has suffered a series of organized attacks, which have been maliciously rumored on major platforms. The company is resolutely defending its reputation and has taken decisive legal action.

In addition, the Gel App said that because the Caton problem has not been solved, delay, flashback, inability to enter and many other problems do exist, the company chose to take the initiative from the app store during the large-scale upgrade of the system, suspend new user entry, focus on improving the existing user experience.

Currently, gel users can perform AI face pinching, DIY images, and interact based on geographical location. Official introduction said that here, the Gel App records life with a Plog that only allows the release of photos of the day, no grouping, no blocking, no three days of visibility, to be the most authentic self. At the same time, only 50 close friends are allowed to be invited to reconstruct the most intimate online space.

For the gel function and interface similar, some users said that it always feels familiar, and have seen it on the Spot software before, and some people have commented that such as ZEPETO and Zenly complex.

Nowadays, the active removal of gels that have become popular under the "virtual fire" of the metaverse is also able to see some defects in the metaverse society and the acceptance of the main user under the immaturity of the metaverse society. But what can be seen is that if it is not a jelly that violates privacy as netizens say, how can it be taken down on its own initiative, and behind this is also a reflection of the current perfection of metaverse society.
