2 account publish same applications

May I ask, If someone creates 2 accounts and then publish 2 applications (same name, same code, icon). That would violate Google’s policies or not?

:confused:

Thanks

Yes. .

it violates and you will lose both accounts

Why would you publish EXACTLY same app? I’m not saying that I’m doing this, but you can just change icon, name, appearance a little bit, maybe lil bit of functionality and noone will notice…

And you are basically competing with your own app meaning less downloads for both of them. :expressionless:

You can have multiple accounts and publish apps. However you cannot publish same apps on both accounts, they should be very different.

This is a great idea (well pre-Google update) if you tweak it a bit- Keep the inner workings roughly the same and change everything else. Market it from a different angle. Voila, you get more downloads without cannabalizing the first app. Tip from my book.
