Re: [android-developers] Help: My App came copied / reproduced !!!
I wrote them already, will see how they react.. thanks.. 1. Copy App Name 99% 2. Copy huge Part Text Description (in app (see my 'About and his Help) It really looks he copied my english Language File. 3. Copy Design functionality BMT (enter Data) / Period Length / Cycle Length 4. Copy way of showing History List (he call it statistic) 5. User Management. He used my text, but even functionality is not working 6. Personal Settings: Popups functionality copied and text (80%) 7. Even more, but less Priority. Everyone how does compare the apps in text and functionality will find either 1:1 copies or very similar way how I did in my app. Especially the same app name does confuse Users. I just write this points to even start myself to make an overview what all is copied :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Help: My App came copied / reproduced !!!
Great ! Right Now i Got answer from Google Removal Team. Hello Christian, Thanks for reaching out to us. We have received your DMCA complaint dated 7/31/2011. At this time, Google has decided not to take action based on our policies concerning content removal. As always, we encourage you to resolve any disputes directly with the developer of the application in question. I CAN't even reach that Guy As he do not answer! No Supportpage even. Great help from Google for an App that in his TOP 100 !! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Help: My App came copied / reproduced !!!
Tell google about the fact that you can't reach him, that the other developer is not cooperating. (I'm not sure that would help, though. But at least you're trying...) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Help: My App came copied / reproduced !!!
Thanks... i told them already and I am still on it. Its a pity. I really love google, but in that case I fell really kept alone. Someone advised me to send google a take down notice from a lawyer, because that copycat definitely violates my copyright by copying full text parts from my application. They may take more notice from a Lawyer than from a simple developer. Also I would really like to avoid that.

[android-developers] Help: My App came copied / reproduced !!!
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 desirmpokty @ gmail.com 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! *Especially check the ABOUT page (press MENU) on both apps.* Should u like to talk to that copycat developer himself your opinion, you are free to do so. Thats his only contact i found: desirmpokty @ gmail.com . 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.

Re: [android-developers] Help: My App came copied / reproduced !!!
Thanks for the Link. I wrote google now. At the end he may 'just' violated my copyright by coping my text and trademark from the Name. I would not said anything if he takes my app as model for his own app and make something new. There are many other Period Ovulation Apps now in the market, who took inspirations from my app (just because i was the first on android with a calendar.. -not the first app-) . the point they used their own creativity and made really something new... and not just coping whole chapters from a description and using the name nearly 1:1, thats quiet cheap :( -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
