I have purchased a full copy of ExplorOz and installed it on my desktop. When I try to download a copy from Playstore onto my Android device it want to charge me. Can someone offer some advice?

Hello

My understanding is that different versions of the App for different operation systems (eg Windows, iOS, Android) require individual licenses and therefore individual payments.

Hi Graham,

The licences for each platform are separate. Your desktop version can be loaded onto as many devices using that OS (I presume it's Windows) as you like, so as many Windows devices as you have.

The Android version is a separate licence and has to be paid for separately.

Same with the iOS version for Apple devices.

From this page "Platform Specific Requirements (Minimum)":

[quote]Your purchase from an app store is a licence to download the app multiple times and to multiple devices supported by that store, however cross-platform licensing is not available.[/quote]

Cheers

EDIT: The Explorer posted as I was composing, so we've doubled up.

But the maps are yours to use on all platforms if you buy the package - one payment for all platforms

Only the app has to be purchased per platform
iOS android or windows
