Describe your suggested feature

Hi,

I found this app on Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bnyro.recorder from this developer. It has the exact same package name. Is that you?

Other details

If it's not you, that's clearly a GPLv3 violation

You can follow that procedure to remove this copy from the Store, if it's your wish.

Don't forget to tell Google that:

  • The app is licensed under GNU GPL v3 license and this guy is violating it;
  • He is falsely claiming he made the app;
  • Provide some screenshots of your own app.

Acknowledgements

  • I have searched the existing issues and this is a new ticket, NOT a duplicate or related to another open issue.
  • I have written a short but informative title.
  • I will fill out all of the requested information in this form.

You're right, I'm not affiliated with that app.
I still don't have a Google account and don't plan to create any for that, so I can't report it myself.
Some users of Record You have already reported the app to Google, but they don't seem to take any action.

@Bnyro Bnyro closed this as not planned Won't fix, can't repro, duplicate, stale Sep 3, 2023

This seems to be another copycat violation:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sanson.screen_audio_recorder

Developer: https://play.google.com/store/apps/dev?id=5671386026213435890

I do not have a Google account to report it, maybe someone else here can do it?

Not only RecordYou, this guy has been copying all our apps. Both you-apps and my personal apps
