Motivation

It also uses simple rendering and GUI subsystems (see Engine).

For applications on Google Play that are derived from this application, usage is tracked. This tracking is done automatically using the embedded version string (kVersion), and helps us continue to optimize it. Aside from consuming a few extra bytes in your application binary, it shouldn't affect your application at all. We use this information to let us know if Pie Noon is useful and if we should continue to invest in it. Since this is open source, you are free to remove the version string but we would appreciate if you would leave it in.
