Hi guys, instead of waiting 'timely' answers, i got the Wikitude free SDK startup license and have no any problem with publishing now. To be honest image recognition as it is a bit worse, but if you prepare images properly (contrast, saturation, aspect ratio), you can reach satisfactory results. I have spent 1 day, to get license and rebuild my project from the Vuforia to the Wikitude.

Goodbye greedy Vuforia, maybe some other time ;^)

So I am as well working on an app. Mine is for a thesis at university. When I have finished we want to publish it in a non-commercial way.

This post is the only thing I found where I am sure that it says as long as I have less than 1000 downloads I can publish the app with the developer license and without paying.

Is it still up-to-date?

How can I be sure that I do not hurt any rules and agreements?

 

Thanks for every help!

+1. And what will happen if the limit is exceeded? Hey, Vuforia, why you haven't a clear information for non-paying cases ? That isn't cool, i forced to choose another toolkit.

Hello olsmoke,

An app that is only for consumer use and has less than 1,000 app installs can be distributed in app stores with a Development license. A paid license is required for a Consumer app with more than 1,000 installs. This is the total number of app installs across any/all platforms supported by Vuforia 6. An enterprise or toys/product app cannot be distributed with a Development license.

For more information, please review our developer agreement: https://developer.vuforia.com/legal/vuforia-developer-agreement

Thanks,

-Vuforia Support
