I don’t know if there’s a relation there, but I assume so. This is otherwise impossible in iOS, unlike on Android. Installous lets you browse a list of available pirated versions of the app, which also means you can use it to go back to an older version of an app you legally own. I have Installous, a jailbreak app for installing pirated apps, installed, but have only ever used it once: When Scanner Pro, which I also legally own, introduced a bug in the app that made the app stop working completely on my device.
I still have the receipt email from August 18, 2010, to prove that I paid the $50 for this app, as I do with all my apps. Turns out it’s happening all over the place. It didn’t take me long to figure out what had happened, and I started looking around a bit. How about we all stop using pirated iOS apps? I promise to stop. I checked my word, went back to grading.Ī few minutes later, I get a Twitter notification email about someone replying to my tweet.
OXFORD DELUXE APP STORE UPDATE
OK, I thought, apparently some update means the app now requires access – nothing new, apps need location access to access photos, and I don’t plan on sharing any words on Twitter anyways, so why not. I got asked for access to my Twitter account, declined, and was thrown out of the app. I sat down to grade papers for an English class, and loaded up the dictionary app I’ve been using for ages to check a word. Exactly what, I don’t know, but here’s what happened to me just now: A big enough problem, in fact, that the developer of the Oxford Deluxe dictionary app – a $55 app mind you – decided to do something about it.
It’s a bad thing, it’s cost Android a lot in apps that never make it there, and it’s a fairly large problem on iOS too.
