    I also don’t understand this. If I have my own, personal API key, and supposedly I can use it for free. Then if I write my own app, without releasing it on Play Store, I can’t use it with my own API key? Why not? Is there any mentioning of this explicitly against the rules?

      Yes, check the TOS

      Also you can’t have a part of the app that prompts a user to create a api key

      Edit: I’m not sure if this is true after a few comments on reddit. I’ll see if I can get clarification from the dev

        Afaik I can request my key on Reddit. Then I, all by myself, create an Android app for myself, completely from scratch, never release it to anywhere, just have it on my phone. So not Revance an existing , seriously program one from zero. It would be personal use, would it not?
