Alexandar, Could you please let me know, how you solved this problem? Did you add any server layer for validating the purchase? Is it possible to validate loally on the device. - Aram On Monday, September 30, 2013 at 1:45:55 PM UTC+5:30, Alexander Osmanov wrote: > > Thank you guys for your rep

Thank you guys for your replies. I still have no clear understanding of how to handle this problem more efficiently but at least now I am sure it's not entirely myself missing something important. Still I refuse to believe there is no one that ever faced the same problem in android developers worl

I'm not saying that getting the Google account name via the API wouldn't be useful, but unfortunately that doesn't exist right now. I agree that forcing accounts is not user friendly and probably isn't a good idea for the majority of apps, but it is an option that may be considered. Sticking wi

The Google IAB dialog has the Google account name that will be associated with the purchase. In-app purchases are generally understood to be tied to your Google account and apps you download/purchase are associated with the account used in Google play. You could force your users to create user

Yes, that is my problem if I want to bind server side to Google account. I can't rely on first account being the one I should use and I don't think that something like showing an account picker and saying "choose the account you used for purchasing blah blah to create blah blah" is a good idea.

Weird, I didn't realize that the Google Play downloading account would be used, although this makes sense. Ultimately though the user making the purchase isn't configurable by your app since you'll be stuck with the downloading Google account anyway. On Sunday, September 29, 2013 2:40:11 PM UTC

Kj, I did a research today, published my app through alpha testing on Google Play and tried downloading it using several accounts. I can confirm that IAB is NOT limited to primary Google account. Whichever account I use for downloading the app from Google play is then used for IAB. On Saturday,

Thank you for your reply. Are you sure, IAB is really tied to the primary account? I was sure about that but this note in documentation confused me a lot: *Note*: To make test purchases, the license test account must be on the user’s Android device. If the device has more than one account, the

As others mentioned, IAB is limited to the primary Google account. Users that need truly separated user accounts will use the multi-user accounts options on Jelly Bean tablets, so their primary Google accounts will be different. This isn't confusing: when you make a purchase with a Google accou

It's hard to just move on when you kinda spent a year writing your app and when the only thing left to do is to integrate it with billing :) On Friday, September 27, 2013 10:19:05 PM UTC+4, Nikolay Elenkov wrote: > > > On Sep 28, 2013 1:58 AM, "Alexander Osmanov" > > > wrote: > > > > There must

There must be no broken in one of such important part of the API. That's why I'd really like to hear some official recommendations for handling this. I refuse to believe there are no apps with IAB and server side data with accounts. Someone? Anyone? On Thursday, September 26, 2013 6:20:33 PM U

IAP with multiple accounts is in my opinion *broken*, even if I suspect current behaviour is how Google intended it. In my experience, in the presence of multiple accounts, the IAP code will always pickup the first listed account, in the device's Google account list in Settings, which may not
