    Unhappy Apps Know There Cracked

    Originally Posted On The iPhone Vault

    Recently some cracked apps have been able to know if they are cracked or not. One example is the Tap Tap Revenge: Coldplay. So lets say you use cracked apps, if you get the cracked version of Tap Tap Revenge: Coldplay. A message will pop up. Telling you to not pirate there software because they have families to support and if you don’t they threaten to report you to the police. Other cracked apps just simply crash right when you open them. It looks like it might be the end of Cracked Apps. Especially if Apple inserts this feature into all of there Apps.

    This really isn't anything new. Beejive did it some months ago and there was another app, Aurora Feint(?) that did it a while ago.

    True, they are just cheap people that don't want to pay $0.99 for an App

    True, we all can afford the $299.00 for the iPhone, but not $0.99 for the app we want...FAIL

    I see your not a DEV, that's why you think it's ok...
    I would agree that some apps aren't worth the $0.99 but it's only $0.99
    + most every app has a review or 2 or 10 written by people that paid for them.

    Boll*x.

    At $0.99 it doesn't matter if it is awful.

    The try before you buy argument really doesn't wash for a $0.99 app!

    I agree... the cheap apps you can generally get an idea of their value from the reviews. The more expensive apps should be given a trial period IMO though.
