Apps are not required to perform a platform entitlement check.
Although entitlement checks are not required, they are strongly recommended for the following reasons:
  • Entitlement checks are an anti-piracy measure, which helps ensure that users have purchased your application.
  • For platform features which require User IDs, the Horizon OS will only supply your application with the current user’s ID if they are entitled to your application. This check will indicate if your application can use those platform features.

Steps to test

  1. On your device, ensure developer mode is enabled and log in with a user who doesn’t have an entitlement to the app (either via release channel, keys, or store purchase).
  2. In a terminal window, install the app with the command adb install path-to-apk.
  3. Launch the app from the Library.

Expected result

App should either exit, display an error message, or go into a limited demo mode.
