Warning! The Sora App You Downloaded Could Be A Fake One, Here's How To Check

The issues related to Sora are not taking a backfoot anytime soon. From in-app mishaps to outer world controversies, Sora is surrounded by everything. Now, the latest in the line is a plethora of fake

Sora apps that have reached the Apple App Store. According to a report shared by TechCrunch, the App Store is filled with spoof Sora apps that want to do nothing but just want to use the hype of Sora to milk some money from users or grab their data. As for the achievements of Sora, the app has already crossed one million downloads on the Apple App Store. This makes Sora's craze even heavier than what we got to see in the case of ChatGPT. This is a major reason why other fake apps have popped up on the store, because a naive user can be easily manipulated into downloading one of the fake applications. As per the figures we got to see from Appfigures, the Apple App Store has more than 12 fake apps running in the name of Sora and Sora 2. And yes, the trend is so disturbing that some of these apps are nothing but just a cheap rebranding of old apps that were not performing that good on the Apple App Store and were unable to capture an audience.

Impact Of Fake Sora Apps And How To Identify One

The impact has been a considerable one to an extent. For example, a fake named Sora 2 - AI Video Generator gained more than 50,000 downloads by using that name. Talking about the total figure, the impostor applications have crossed 300,000 installs on Android and iOS collectively. And these apps have successfully clocked a revenue above $160,000 before they were eradicated.Also Read: ChatGPT Head Nick Turley Is Aiming To Make The AI Model A Fully Functional Operating System This has also raised a lot of questions on the app review policies of Apple and obviously, how could an app like Sora have spoofs that too more than dozens of them and they don't even work, for god's sake. Now, identifying these apps is no rocket science; you just need to check a couple of things. First things first, the logo of the app should be the one officially issued by OpenAI. Apart from that, check if the developers of the app are some shady ones you have never heard of, or anyone except OpenAI.
