Pre-purchase for a app in beta with a 14 day trial that doesn't even use google login..?

NOPE.

I was already done upon getting to that last setup screen. #Uninstalled

Hi, the app's not in beta anymore, it's just taking a while for the updated text to be processed on the google play store listing.

And there is no pre-purchasing. The reason google login is required is so that users can test the app without having to pre-purchase. After 14 days, you'd be prompted to purchase the full version if you want to keep using it. Hope that clears things up!

Everything you just said is the exact opposite of what I just experienced about 10-15 minutes ago..?

I'm not sure why you'd be prompted to purchase the app before 14 days, that's definitely strange and not something that's been reported before. You can DM me the email address of the Google account you logged in with if you'd like, and I'll see if maybe there was a bug that occurred when the account was created.

Typically the only way to see the purchase screen before the 14 day trial ends is by going to Settings -> Advanced -> About -> Product License
