<p> Google Play Licensing is a network-based service that you implement in your

app. The service lets your app query a trusted licensing server at runtime, to

determine whether the app is licensed to the current device user. You can use

the licensing service to protect any app, even apps that you distribute for

free. For an overview of the service, see <a

href="{@docRoot}google/play/licensing/index.html">Application

Licensing</a>.</p>



<p>Additionally, Google Play offers app encryption to help protect your priced

apps. When delivering your priced apps to devices running Android 4.1 or higher,

Google encrypts the app binary so that it can be run only by the user who

downloaded it, on the device to which it was originally downloaded. Your priced

apps benefit from app encryption automatically &mdash; there's no extra

development work or configuration needed.</p>
