    Google is to pay at least $19m to settle a formal complaint over unauthorised in-app purchases.

    The complaint came from the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) which said Google should do more to warn people about how much they were spending.

    Most of the purchases were made by children keen to advance in popular smartphone games.

    The settlement requires Google to tell all those who made in-app purchases about how to get a refund.
