Help needed #161

Goodmorning,

View days ago I bought Photocloud. A super program to automatically show my mother the outside world.

I paid Google €3.99, but it doesn't work. I keep seeing the screen to buy the program. I asked Google to refund my money but they didn't. I just had to contact the developer. (It's not easy, to be honest.)

Can you help me?

(maybe this isn't the right place to get a solution for this, but I don't really know where else to go. )

Hi Jeanne, this is the correct place :+1:

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. Actually Google is in charge of the payments and refunds (since they charge 15% for that service and the payments are handled by Google and the "Google Play" app store); Google ditching their responsibility like that is really infuriating. But they're the monopoly so they can suck however they want I suppose :/

There is a list of FAQs here, please try to follow steps outlined in "Purchase not restored after reinstall".

I can give you a refund if need be - just let me know your transaction ID and I'll try to do my best.

Thanks for your quick response. The world isn't as bad as I first thought ;-)

I will of course go through the steps, because I want it to work. But I do hope that you don't let things figure out endlessly, if there is a more easy solution.

Hello again,

I factory swiped my tablet, I install again. What I see is a true near the API, a false near the unlocked Nagging and true near the Daydream thing What went wrong? Did I purchased the wrong item? Can I do anything to correct this? I will send you my purchase and print-screen Can you give me the right instructions?

Thanks

Hi, yeah it sounds like you have bought the incorrect item. Just let me know and I'll try to refund.

JeanneZuidhorn commented 2 years ago

Please, but I can buy the other item, I'm not bankrupt if a pay more. Better expensive then not for sale! Just let me know how to proceed

No problem! There are two Purchase options when you open the PhotoCloud Settings:

You accidentally purchased the latter one, while you need to purchase the former one, simply titled "Purchase". There's a summary just below the option stating "Supports the author and removes the nagging dialog - thank you! :)" which refers to the Nagging Dialog Removal :)

However, it's true that the caption should be a more informative "Purchase Remove Nagging Dialog" instead of just "Purchase" - I'll update the caption.

JeanneZuidhorn commented 2 years ago

Oké, but what did I buy with the other option? Daydream screensaver? It is a screensaver already with all the different foto?

The Daydream purchase unlocks the PhotoCloud integration with "Android Daydream", see https://www.samsung.com/my/support/mobile-devices/what-is-the-daydream-feature-and-how-do-i-use-it-on-my-samsung-galaxy-s5/ for more details. In short, if you don't use Android Daydream, then the "Daydream" PhotoCloud purchase option won't add any new features for you.
