The Ministry has prepared a draft government decree obliging to pre-install the Russian app store RuStore on TVs with Smart TV functions (access to Internet services). The document is posted on the portal of draft normative legal acts.

“The pre-installation of RuStore does not mean that device owners are obliged to use it, its use is exclusively voluntary,” the press service of the Ministry of Information explained (quoted by Interfax). The measure will allow pre-installing on Smart TV, including those applications that are currently unavailable on Google Play and Google TV.

In July, the government approved a list of more than 40 programs developed in Russia and the EAEU countries, which are mandatory for pre-installation on various devices from 2027. The RuStore app store, according to the order, should be pre-installed on gadgets with Android, iOS, HarmonyOS and HyperOS operating systems.
