http://androidforums.com – Hello, Has anyone had experience with In-App billing? I have tried to understand how to implement it but its just confused me so much!! Basically I am in the process of making an app which is used to advertise other developers apps on the play store, to do this there is a little fee which the developer would pay for me to host their app on mine. What i am after is to have a button at the bottom of the app which when clicked allows the user to make a one time payment of £2. At the moment that will be it and I will then add their app to mine the same day, in the future i will be making it (General)

I am working on an android app which makes use of in-app billing version 3 (Android 4.0+). I want to know if it is possible to programmatically dismiss/timeout the Google Play purchase view, as I want to grant users an allotted amount of time in which they can make a purchase.

I have implemented inapp billing in my app some time ago, so it's not the v3 API, but the v2. When I try to buy an unmanaged item I get charged and everything goes fine, my app then shows a dialog indicating that the purchase did well. The problem is that Google Play keeps sending again this

In the documentation for in app billing (v3), it says: "Upon a successful purchase, the user’s purchase data is cached locally by Google Play’s In-app Billing service."

I now want to thoroughly test my app's billing code and wish to clear that cache. Its important because without the data being in the cache, it may take a little longer to collect the data - or it may not be accessible at all.
