Hi, I want to publish an app on both Google Play and by in-house way. Currently my app contains self-updating code for in-house release, but in Google Play Developer Program Policies it says "An app downloaded from Google Play may not modify, replace or update its own APK binary code using any method other than Google Play's update mechanism." My question is, it is OK that I just disable the self-updating code in Google Play version instead of removing it entirely? The binary code still exists in the apk, but it is never called since it is bypassed with an if clause or something like that. Because our group wants to minimize the difference in code between Google Play version and in-house version.
If anyone got the experience that the app got warning because of self-updating binary code existing (but not any self-updating behavior, nor UI), please let me know. Thank you in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
