I agree. An unlocker app also does not require any maintenance. You just need to check its presence on the device, that's it. No need for importing / filtering lots of data, no need for writing server software.
On top of that when you really do want to go that route of validating legitimate users via order number how are you going to issue the following problems: - Someone gives away his/her order number to other people - Someone just guesses the order number. It's not particularly secure - In case of LVL usage: someone cracks your free app and makes it upload a known user's email address who purchased the app (to my knowledge you can only validate someone via Google account name / email address using this route) If you keep on using the LVL in an unlocker app you can avoid these issues (if implemented properly).
