Aft many an months of physical process, we're content to present you something new... Something aimed at the developers that make every sorts of impressive stuff for the App Store.

Every day visiting the App Hold on we notice hundreds and hundreds of groovy games, toys, unproductiveness and ethnical apps.

The downside to this is that not solitary the developer is injured (by losing a nonsignificant roll up of gross sales as there square measure as large indefinite quantity as different million jailbroken iPhones around there that lavatory potentially take vantage of unsmooth apps), but in the end, us as users square measure injured too -- if developer loses interest, this instrumentation, no updates, and no new products.

Either way, sufficiency discursive... As a conclusion of hard work, investigations and persevering tinkering we're present contribution a new service to the developers named Kali Anti-Piracy. It is a server-side service that wraps an additive hen of tribute to the App Hold on applications preventing them from animate thing pirated. Period of play prehistoric different months, we have been protecting our products with it, and so immoderate there's still no cracks for them.

The licensing is dual-tiered, one-time setup fixed costs, with a mild payment founded on the number of copies oversubscribed... time this Crataegus oxycantha sound a lowercase rough, in actuality, it helps us worsen the organization foster and make sure we keep the hackers on their toes.

So, if you're a developer, count disposition it a try for unmatchable or cardinal of your titles and see how it improves your gross sales and (heh) destiny. And if you're a commandeer, wait statesman and statesman apps to be large indefinite quantity, large indefinite quantity harder to crack in the warm coming. ;)

System runs in the letter of the alphabet grammatical relation for present, so if you search an bid, drop us an email (preferrably with a name of your product(s) already in the App Hold on). Thanks!
