I have hesitated a couple of times at that language, when I'm considering an "open source" app. To find that it's really describing the ability to make a donation to the developers. I wish there was distinct language for this. But at least I've learned to look closer, before making up my mind. P.S. I just checked a couple of apps I was thinking of, and I do not see -- or no longer see -- that language on their app page. One -- Open Camera -- does have the ability to make such a donation by purchasing a separate "donation app". I don't know whether the language has changed, or whether I'm mis-remembering my past experience. About the time Android and smart phones came along, I lost the will to keep my attention focused on and keep up with every last detail. Anyway, I've no problem with making a donation for an app I value. I tend to favor such apps, because I just don't have a lot of trust in closed-source apps. Not that all app developers are bad or evil, but 1) Mistakes get made, particularly around security; 2) Apps get sold, and the new parties are an unknown, then already on my device; 3) Ads -- sooner or later, in distraction and/or malicious behavior, they go bad. I also pay for some commercial, closed-source apps. But I have to have a fair amount of trust in the outfit behind them. Anyway... Play platform language is oriented around "sales" and not "contributions".
