Thanks Jacqueline & Shawn,
I did more testing at Verizon, and it seems several of these methods
work reliably and can be mastered by most Android owners.

Hi Richard,
Our main reason for not wanting to use Google Play is that the vast
majority of our customers will find our app through our site, which is
well known in our sector. We'd be giving away 30% of a $10 app for
little return.

Not by default. As with the Amazon app store and other non-Google

I don't know what kind of app you have, but since I'm online for the next
couple of hours, if you want to email me privately with a download link to
your apk file, I'll check it out and let you know how easy the install
went. I'll then delete the apk file from my daughter's phone and giv
Richard,
I believe "MOST" Android users will be able to install an apk file with no
further instruction. That being said though, there will be the "few" that
won't be able to figure it out, either because they're a new Android device
owner, or they simply never needed to install an apk file (app)

Do we need to point them to apkInstaller? Is it reasonable to require

I'm definitely still learning when it comes to LC, however I've installed

Mine was just the opposite, I make more sales on Amazon. Maybe it
depends on what type of app, or the phase of the moon.

Yes, free and paid versions are treated as separate apps in all the stores ive
used, including both Apple and Android. However it doesn't take very long as
most of the time is taken preparing descriptions, screen shots etc. which can
be mostly the same for both versions of the app.

Thanks, Andy, for that useful information.
To post both a free and a paid version of an app at Google, does one
need to repeat the entire application process twice?

With the Amazon system you have to submit every update for review and then
wait. If you want to withdraw a product from sale you have to write to them.
With the Google system you can si

Thanks, Colin.
The problem I have with Amazon is that it is U.S. only, and many of our
customers are elsewhere.
Sounds like you used Google Play. Did you go without the encryption
option? Did you somehow use in-app purchasing or simply publish a paid app?
Thanks.

Amazon is more straightforward. Not sure if they have the same DRM options you
have in Google Play. With Google Play you can take an easy route, and hope
there isn't too much piracy, or you can go for another option they have that

What are people doing to sell and license an LC-created Android app?
I looked at Google Play, but that appears to use a non-LC-compatible
licensing process. What can be done to restrict illegal app copying,
