Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this question. I am building an app that runs on Android and iPhone, and to sign in I'm implementing an unlock pattern like Android's. I know that this unlocking pattern is patented by Google/Android, so does that mean that I would be infringing that patent by implementing it on my app? Would only be a infringement if it is on iPhone but it is ok on Android or it is illegal on both? If there any process/contact point to request for permission or that's out of question? This is an app that I'm planning to sell.. and although I don't think Google would come after a single developer trying to sell an App, I would rather be on the safe-side and don't get in troubles that I wouldn't be able to afford to fight.
