Whether on or off topic, I don't know, but my approach has been to
keep a lite/demo version and pro version of my app. This requires
more effort on my part, but it seems like the best solution. I've
been chided for calling my lite version lite instead of demo, but

Hi Mariano,
yes, I know what you mean. I was in the same position and wanted to
