If you are confident that this new app is a copy of yours (with some changes, btw, its size is twice of yours - advertising?), you can file a DMCA takedown notice with Google, and they will remove the offending application.

( they made it even easier since when I had to use it a year ago )

This page is a legal document, so you should be really sure that this new app is a copy of yours. If you are, that's a good way to resolve the issue.

Dear Colleges in Developing.

I am the Developer from the app:

"My Days - Period & Ovulation"
com.chris.mydays
Christian Albert Mueller
(3 Years in the Android Market)

Today I had to find out that many of
my creative work came copied by:

"My Days (Period & Ovulation)
iac.health.mydays
Health Team

[email protected]


First I thought its just the similar Name

that I don't like. but at near investigation I had to found out

he copied 90% from my "About" Page in his app.

You will find even more similar functions he just took 1:1.

You can compare yourself while downloading both apps.


I am sure you are not interested to support such creativity theft

and don't like similar happen to you


Please *compare BOTH apps yourself* and than make your comment!


Should u like to talk to that copycat developer himself your opinion, you are free to do so.

Thats his only contact i found: [email protected] He does not offer even a

support page in the market for his app.


As I know you don't have to do anything, I would appreciate any of your activities

from a serious developer to another.


Such people, who only copy/paste other devs work should not benefit from that.


Finest Regards and wish you all the best

Yours

Chris
