We have been receiving emails from our faithful app users about wanting us to transfer their app to their new device because they have switched platforms. (Apple to Android or Android to Apple)
Because the App Store and Google Play are two separate entities and different platforms, you will have to repurchase the app if you switch platforms.
Here are the scenarios which you will not have to repurchase:
- If you upgrade your current phone in the same platform, you will not have to repurchase.
- If you have an IPhone and also have an IPad, you can download the app on both devices since they are the same platform.
- If you have an Android phone and an Android tablet, you can download the app on both devices since they are the same platform.
On separate note:
- If you have a Blackberry device, you can download the app on the Amazon platorm.
- The Amazon download only works on the Kindle Fire device. It will not work on a normal Kindle reader.
The apps are not transferable from one platform to another.
