Best way to prevent in-app purchases?

martin57

Hi,


Just wondering as I have enabled in the settings on google play that the play password has to be entered for any purchases, does this mean that every in app purchases will require this password as well?


And there is no way a purchase can be made in the app without the google play password on my nexus 7,


Unless maybe I am taken to an external browser by app.


Just don't want to run up any huge bills.


Thanks for any info

Turn off your wifi and mobile data .....simples

Remove any card details from the profile. If no card is registered the payment can't be made.

As above dont stick your CC number into the phone..

Always though that was daft.

Google some dodgy sites. Make sure its on a computer you dont network or use anything personal on. It may get infected..
With a bit of luck you will stumble across sites with info on bypassing lockscreens on various devices.

Not quite as bad as having your wallet in a pocket when hal;f of its hanging out and writing your pin on the bank cards. Not its a close 2nd.
