Same. I’ve had several refunds. No request to return. Just full money back.
I don’t think people recognize how often a purchase made to Amazon or some similar seller platform is actually coming straight from China; always with a 2x or more mark up.
I’ve taken to always searching on ali to see if I can get the same thing for 1/10 the price. They don’t try to hide the shipping information like Amazon does. Where as Amazon won’t report anything until it’s in country and passed customs.
Are you suggesting such an app can be purchased outside Google play but not used?
Having an app check a license server isn’t exactly new. Google play is simply a third party license server.
