What this guideline means

Google requires health-related apps — symptom checkers, treatment trackers, wellness apps — to avoid claims that could cause real-world harm if wrong, such as guaranteeing a cure or discouraging users from seeking professional care.

Why apps actually get flagged

A frequent cause is a wellness or supplement app claiming to treat, cure, or prevent a specific disease without any clinical backing, which Google's health content review flags regardless of app category.

A real example

"Your app makes health claims that are not supported by generally accepted scientific or medical consensus, in violation of the Health Content and Services policy."
