Hi, As my app has evolved, it has appealed more to business owners who want to purchase the app for their employees. According to the Android market statistics, yesterday I had a one day spike in the number of active installs, that that amounted to 10x my normal volume. Normally I sell around 5 per day, but yesterday the active installs bumped up by about 55. I know I did not sell 50+ licenses in one day per my merchant account. My fear is that a company bought one copy of my app, and since they used the same email address on those other devices, were able to download and use it on 50 devices. I have no problem in letting each person use my app on a few devices, but 50 crosses the line for me.
Has anyone found any successful strategies to limit the app to just a few devices (say a license that lets you install it on 3 or 5 devices)? I would imagine that you'd have to extend the licensing system along with your own server to validate the number of devices, but I don't think users would appreciate my app "calling home" when started.
