Google mandates age verification for app downloads in three states to comply with 2026 laws.
Google is rolling out mandatory age verification on the Play Store for users in Texas, Utah, and Louisiana, requiring proof of being 18 or older to download certain apps.
The system, being introduced gradually, may use methods like selfies, government IDs, credit cards, or third-party services.
It aims to comply with new state laws set to take effect in early 2026, which require age checks for mature content.
Users who don’t verify may be blocked from downloading restricted apps.
The change reflects broader regulatory pressure on tech companies to protect minors online, with similar measures already in place for YouTube and Google Search.
