[ How to ?? ] How to get a refund from Google Play Store apps

How to return paid apps and games

Google’s Android App return policy is simple: if you buy an Android app or game and you aren’t happy with it for any reason, you can return it within two hours for a full refund. After that two hour interval is up, though, it’s up to the app developer to decide whether or not you should get your money back.
To claim a refund:
  • Open the Google Play Store app
  • Tap on the Menu icon and choose My Account
  • Select the app or game you want to return
  • Tap on Refund
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to get your money back and uninstall the app or game.
If the two hour period has already passed you won’t see a refund button; instead it will say Uninstall instead. That means you’ll have to contact the app or game developer.

How to contact an app or game developer for a refund

On your mobile device:
  • Open the Google Play Store app
  • Search for the app whose developer you want to contact
  • Tap on the app
  • Tap on Read More
  • Get the contact information and contact the developer.

How to get a refund on an in-app purchase

In a short answer you can’t, or at least you can’t from Google: there’s no two-hour trial period and it’s up to the developer to decide whether you should get a refund. Google does say that you can contact its support team if you’re having trouble with an in-app purchase, but it doesn’t make any promises of help.

How to get a refund on an ebook

Google Play generally gives you a 7-day return period on books (30 days on educational titles through Google Play for Education) but there are some exceptions, such as books that were only available for a very short period of time. To make a refund request, you need to contact Google Play Customer Support.

How to get a refund on a Google Play movie purchase

If the video clip is defective, you can get a refund at any time - but if you’ve simply decided that some movie isn’t really the movie for you, you’ve got 7 days (10 business days in Italy, and 14 days in Denmark, Finland, Germany, Norway, Portugal and Sweden). That period only applies if you haven’t started watching the movie: if you get three minutes in and think “this is rubbish!” that’s your tough luck. The same rules apply to TV programmes in the Google Play Store.

How to get a refund on a Google Play Music purchase

Once again, Google will happily refund your purchase if you haven’t streamed or downloaded it; as soon as you do either of those things Google will only consider a refund if the track is technically, not artistically, inadequate. You’ve got 7 days to request a refund, or 14 if you live in the European Union. To request a refund:
  • Using a web browser, go into your Play Store account
  • Look for Order History and find the item you want to request a refund for
  • Click on the menu icon
  • Select Report A Problem
  • Select I’d Like To Request a Refund
If you don’t have access to a computer, you can contact the support team instead.

[ TechLeaks ] Korean media: Galaxy Note 8 to launch on August 26 in New York as report says

The Korea Herald and the news portal Naver said today purporting to reveal the release date of Samsung’s Next Big Thing. According to the Korea Herald , Samsung is planning to introduce the Galaxy Note 8 “in the third or fourth week of August.” Like the Note 7 before it, the new S Pen device will reportedly make its debut in New York. Citing an unnamed Samsung official, Naver ventures a specific date: August 26, give or take a couple of days. Samsung initially planned to launch the new Note at IFA in the first week of September, according to the Korea Herald . The impending arrival of rival devices from LG and especially Apple might have prompted Samsung to bring up the big release. For reference, the Note 7 was announced on August 2 last year. Reports that surfaced after the phone was recalled due to faulty batteries suggested Samsung rushed the device to market in order to outshine Apple. Almost every flagship release from Samsung from the last few years has been preced...

[ Phone Launch ] Galaxy Note 8 makes its debut in India

Just a few short weeks after its global unveil, Samsung is launching the Galaxy Note 8 in India. The Galaxy S8 series was very well-received in the country, and there's a healthy interest in the Galaxy Note line as well. As a reminder, the Galaxy Note 8 shares a similar design aesthetic as the Galaxy S8, with the phone sporting a slightly larger 6.3-inch Infinity Display with a resolution of 2960 x 1440. Samsung makes the best AMOLED panels, and the display on the Note 8 is incredible. The Note 8 is powered by the Exynos 8895 in India, and comes with 6GB of RAM, 64GB storage, microSD slot, IP68 dust and water resistance, Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.0, USB-C 3.1, iris scanner, and a 3300mAh battery with fast charging and wireless charging. A new feature to make its way to the Note 8 is dual cameras at the back. The phone has two 12MP cameras — a primary f/1.7 sensor that acts as a wide-angle lens augmented by an f/2.4 telephoto lens that offers 2x optical zoom. Both...
