Hello, I have the apk installed on an iPad (paid), but now I want to use an Android mobile, how do I transfer the account?
If you read the FAQs from the Litchi Help site, you’ll see FAQ #10:
10. I purchased the app on one device, can I install it on other devices?
You can install the app on as many devices as you want as long as they use the same platform and the same “main” account (Google, Apple or Amazon) that was used for the original purchase. If you wish to use Litchi on two or more platforms you will need to purchase it on each one.

That ridiculous, if the license was purchased to use it should be available on all platforms.,
It’s not ridiculous at all. The different versions are essentially two different programs, each written for a different operating system.
The Litchi app is sold through the iOS App store, Google Play, and the Amazon store. I don’t know, but I don’t think there is a way for those three stores to communicate with each other such that if the app is purchased in one store, it would be freely downloadable from another store.
I cant speak for Google Play and Amazon Store but i do know the apple SDK allows for devs to issue licenses to specific apple ID’s.
I could not disagree with you more. The Android and IOS versions of Litchi are separately created products that entailed substantive investments in effort and time to complete and debug, so it stands to reason that each version of Litchi should be purchased as a stand-alone product.
For the record, I am not affiliated with Litchi beyond my status as a delighted customer who is prepared to duke it out in the alley beside the 6th Street junkyard, should such a measure become necessary for me to defend Litchi’s honor with swashbuckling panache.
If you consider the astronomical prices charged by other drone flight control products, you will join me as a chorister to sing the praises of Litchi with gusto.

I totally respect your response and I do get it, also love the humour of it!
Anyhow I do see your point, but at same time you don’t see other companies charging PER OS or platform.
It’s almost the equivalent to subscribing to Hulu on Windows PC then trying to log into Hulu via PlayStation and having to pay another separate subscription to use it on PlayStation because it’s a different platform and also requires different code to run…
Of course much more work goes into a drone flight software over a streaming service, but you get the point.
One would think Litchi would at least offer a discount if the user already purchased the application for a different platform.
