An alarming issue has surfaced over the past few days, one that has Android developers quite annoyed. It seems that apps that have been recently updated have ceased to appear in the Android Market on phones running Android 2.x including the Motorola Droid Incredible and just launcehd HTC EVO 4G. To make matters worse, Google has been mute to the growing cries of developers and and users alike.

Apps still appear on non 2.x handsets and in 3rd party viewers such as AndroidApplications, but are entirely absent when sought out on the Android Market of the aforementioned handsets. A thread over at our own AndroidForums is tracking the apps that are affected as the issue persists.

Has anyone recently tried to locate an app that just wasn’t there? Until Google responds to the issue we can’t be sure exactly what is going on, but we wouldn’t go calling this the end of the Android Market as we know it.
