If you’re one of the iPhone users who already had JustPlay downloaded before it vanished from the App Store, you might be wondering if it’s still safe to use. The short answer? Yes—for now. But like anything involving real money, expired updates, and disappearing apps, there are a few things you need to know before you keep tapping away for cash.
JustPlay quietly disappeared from the App Store, and iOS users have been left wondering whether to hang on or move on. It’s still working—for the moment—but things aren’t as simple as they used to be.
So… should we be worried or what?
JustPlay was removed because of Apple’s update and usage policy—not a scandal
According to discussions in the JustPlay Reddit community, the removal seems to be linked to Apple’s App Store rules. If an app hasn’t been updated in over three years and has low downloads in the past year, Apple flags it for removal. It’s basically a digital spring cleaning.
That doesn’t mean JustPlay is broken, fraudulent, or going under. In fact, Android users still have full access through the Google Play Store. Apple just decided it wasn’t pulling enough weight to earn a spot on the shelf.
Sometimes it’s not about drama—it’s just about data.
Yes, it still works on your iPhone—if you already had it installed
Many iOS users are reporting that the app still functions as expected: you can earn points, play games, and cash out. But—and it’s a big but—if you delete the app, you won’t be able to get it back. The App Store listing is gone, and there’s no alternate download method for iOS.
That means no reinstalling, no updates, and potentially… no help if something goes wrong.
It’s like using a coupon the day before it expires—you’re playing with fire, but you’ll probably be fine.
So what’s the actual risk in using it now? Is JustPlay safe?
The biggest issue is support—or the lack of it. If something breaks in the app or you have a payout issue, it’s unclear whether customer service will be responsive for iOS users. And because there won’t be any future updates, any new iOS version could break compatibility overnight.
Also, apps that aren’t supported or maintained over time tend to get glitchy. JustPlay has always had a decent reputation for processing rewards, but without updates or visibility on iOS, the risk just goes up.
Don’t count on a patch if your points disappear.
Use it? Sure. Trust it forever? Probably not.
If you’ve still got the app on your iPhone and it’s working, go ahead and keep using it—but be smart. Most users now recommend cashing out as soon as you hit the minimum payout threshold. Saving up for a big cashout might backfire if the app suddenly stops functioning or supporting iOS payouts.
And again: don’t delete the app. Even by accident. There’s no coming back from that.
Looking for alternatives? There are plenty still on iOS
If you’d rather not risk it, you’ve got some decent Plan B options. Several similar apps are still active in the App Store and regularly updated:
These apps all offer the same concept: play games, earn rewards, cash out to PayPal. The difference? They’re officially supported and won’t disappear without warning.
Sometimes switching apps is less stressful than holding your breath every time you open one.
Bottom line: use it while you can, but don’t get too cozy
JustPlay still works for now, and there’s no immediate danger for current users. But without App Store support, no updates, and limited communication from the developers, it’s smart to treat the app like it’s on borrowed time. If you keep using it, play safe, cash out quickly, and have a backup plan in your pocket.
