While installing the latest version of our app (outside of Google Play), a pop-up message shows up:

Installation Blocked This app can collect data that may be used to track you. Even if you have heard of this app or the app developer, it's still dangerous to install an app from an untrusted source.

so
What can make Google Play to detect an app harmfully?
How do we understand what's Google Play problem with our app?
