Precision trolling app

[Radar13]

I have the lifetime membership for this app on my android phone. I just got a Iphone and was wondering anyone was able to switch their memberships from android to Iphone or vise versa.
The app developer sent me this email when I inquired

Unfortunately at this time we are unable to transfer purchases between platforms, Apple store and android store are separate companies. Purchases made in one store are not transferable to the other. My app will continue to work on the devise type I originally purchased for. so it sounds like I'm screwed.

I am asking if anyone has got around this and to let others know this will be a problem if you purchace this app

I have the precision trolling app on my iPhone 4 and just got an iPhone 6. For you tech savvy fellas, how do I get it and all the cranks I've purchased on my new phone?

Sub, you should be able to either download it off the cloud or if you've backed your 4 up to a computer, just plug your new phone in and it should download onto the new phone.

Radar, you might want to take screen shots and just make a paper version of each lure. Or at least the ones you always use.

I kinda chaps me to think when you pay for lifetime membership you get screwed this way. They have not replied back to my reply email so maybe i'm jumping the gun. They did tell me the updates will still work on my android. That phone is disconnected though

Can't they just give you an iPhone membership? That would be the white thing to do.

That's what I would think

They should be able to do that imo. Im guessing the hangup is that you would then have 2 versions. One on iphone one on android.

For them to do this, Id guess they'd have to cancel the app on your android account and enable it on your apple account. A lot of red tape garbage.

Does your old phone still work? Worst case scenario, you'll have to throw it in your tackle box whenever you go out.
