> following their rules for what is and isn't allowed seems fair It depends on how you look at it. That is literally the deal, yes, but it's a poor deal for developers of free apps. We make Android's platform more valuable, for free, and in return we have to constantly rewrite our apps because of poorly-thought out policies that keep changing. The suspicion is that many of these changes are unnecessary and a result of Google's notorious "promotion-driven development". I think the most annoying aspect of it is that Android changes so often and so fast that they can't even keep their own documentation in sync.
