Hi @rosenpin

I found this app on the Google Play Store. This guy just took your source code, added some ads in it and put it on the Store, without warning this is free software...

As you are the owner of the source code, feel free to open a request to google here to remove the false app from the Store, if it's your wish ;)

Don't forget to tell Google that:

The app is licensed under GNU GPL v3 license and this guy is violating it;
He is falsely claiming he made the app;
Provide some screenshots of your app and a link to this repo.

He seem to be a repeated offender. I just reported one of his app which is a copy of my app. I still see copy of your app is not removed from play. May I know the outcome?

Poussinou commented 7 years ago

It IS a repeatd offender, all his apps are copies of open-source apps

@vijai1996 Seems like it isn't Google's top priority

vijai1996 commented 7 years ago

Damn... Thats saddening! I will keep mailing and nagging Google until they do. Because, this is my ONLY top priority ;)

Poussinou commented 5 years ago

The app has been removed. Please report here if you find other copies 👍
