Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Buying Apps for 2 devices

Pique · 2012-12-20 14:48:38

If I buy an app for my phone and then want to d/l the same app fo my tablet, (obviously using the same Play account) will I be charged again or will it just recognise that I've already purchased it and allow me to download it for free ?

Nope, one app can be used on many devices (as long as you have the same Google account set up on all).

Would be an absolute nightmare if you had to buy an app for every device you had!
And would lead to more piracy of apps if it were the case, people wouldn't be prepared to buy an app more than once.

some will have tablet versions etc so if you buy the app for your phone only the phone app one can be transfered.

I'm open to correction though!

Correct. I bought Swiftkey for my phone, and I bought Swiftkey Tablet for my tablet. It is the exception rather than the norm, though.....
