I don't mean any ill intent to the developers of the application, but want to inform them if there is something wrong. (Sorry if my question feels dumb, I'm just getting familiar with licensing terms)

I've been following this app for sometime and it recently had its alpha release. While taking a look at the Terms and Conditions section of the app, I came across the Application Use section which reads:

Application Use

3.1. License

Pockaw grants you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to use the app for personal or small business financial management purposes. 3.2. Prohibited Use

You agree not to: Reverse engineer, decompile, or modify Pockaw. Use the app for illegal activities. Exploit the app in ways not intended, such as reselling it as your own product.

Yes, but I wouldn't bother bringing it up to them. It's fine if they want to provide it under multiple licenses. Since they make it available under the GPL, you can do those things under that license.

If they do change something, it will probably be to change the license away from GPL.

Thanks! I was thinking of contacting them, but after reading more about it, I'm not going to. I was thinking of switching to this app completely, but now feel conflicted
