Help Words with friend app

[dom601]

Hello,
I purchased the "no more ads" for words with friends on the android galaxy s3. Now I wanted to put it on my wife's phone since she has it with the ads but it's saying to purchase it all over again. I added my gmail account to her phone and when I go to install it under my user name on her phone it show "Accept and buy"

Is there a way to install the "no more ads" on another device besides the one that was purchased? With itunes you can share the paid version with no ad on up to 5 accounts.

Thanks.

when you signed into your account on her phone, make sure your account is highlighted for the Play Store.

once you do that, you should be able to install it without buying it again.

or better yet, just go to the desktop version of the Play Store, and send the download to her phone. since your account is logged in on her phone, it'll become a selection in your devices.

I tried that and it only shows the free version to get on the android. When I reinstall it and then go to the store to put the "no more ads" it shows that I have to repurchase it even though I'm under my account name. It's not like itunes where they had 2 different apps for the free and paid version.

oh, it's an in-app purchase?

i thought thought it was a separate app.

i would suggest contacting Zynga then. just let them know you have 2 devices you want to activate the in-app key with.

On purchased Apps you can transfer from one phone to another, but not on 2 phones at the same time. It would have to be purchased on the second phone also.

^ not true. i have purchased apps, and have been using them on my S3, Nexus 7, and Transformer Eee Pad all at the same time.

but the only in-app purchases i've ever done have been with comics in the Comixology app. and that app allows you to read and download all your in-app purchases to each device. just so as long as you are logged in.
