From forum rules:
"6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained."
Link to forum rules which I suggest you read for future reference.

I think I have the right to share paid apps that I purchased because they became my possession
What do you think ?
Sharing paid apps is stealing the lost revenue that the "apps" developers deserve. Thus... it is considered stealing. And posting anything that is a paid app on XDA is against forum rules and will get you either A) An infraction on your account for a length of time or B) Get you banned from XDA...
How could you not think of it as stealing? Wouldn't you be upset and yell thief if you made a paid app only to find people giving out your app for free?
Think of it this way:
One person pays for an app once for $1
That one person hosts it on another site for free
10,000 people download it for free from that other site
How much money has the developer made now do you think?

Wrong. When you pay for software, you dont own it. You only own a license to use it. The original creator still owns the app.
Google has a per-person license policy, meaning you can use the same Play Store account on all your devices. But you cant share apps to other users because they have not paid the license.
Stupid thread. Redistribution of commercial software is a license infringement and known as "piracy".

is this thread for real? look up a thing called piracy
Cosmic Dan outlined the reason why (License, not actually owning the App, as well as it destroys a Developers income from something they created)
But what everybody else missed (other than reporting this post, which would have closed it a lot sooner ) are the XDA Rules:
6. Do not post warez.

We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.

I have tried to find relevant links to the apps to save people time from searching. Hopefully the links I posted are the right ones. Please share what apps you feel are great and worthy of mentioning. Provide links when you can. Looking forward to see what other great apps are out there!
Please read the rules!!!
Why in the hell would you post warez and apps that provide warez?

This thread is now closed
So if a moderator removes links from the OP and closes the thread, should we not use the removed material anymore? This happened recently, and I was PMed, more than once, about if I have a copy of it. So what's the proper educate? Delete it? Just don't use it? Once it's DLed, is it free reign to do whatever with it?
If it is due to a GPL violation, I wouldn't hesitate to keep using it. In that case, the user is the injured party, so it's up to you. You were granted a license to use it and that hasn't changed.
That said, I probably wouldn't distribute it. But that's a personal decision. In any case, don't publicly post it on XDA. The mods took it down, they don't want it being distributed here. I would consider PM a grey area, but out of respect for XDA, I wouldn't do that either.
Moderator Edit:
Promotion of barred Warez deleted.
So lemme get this straight, the OP has cracked Nova Launcher Prime (the paid version of Nova Launcher) and then posted it on a developer website (xda) and then f-ing shared it?! Wow!! And not only that, he then also promoted the use of Lucky Patcher, a known app for pirating and hacking in-app purchases?! Again, wow.
How are you still a member of XDA? Did you read the xda rules before posting this garbage on here?? The developer of Nova Launcher works very hard to to create an app for everyone to use and enjoy. The Nova Launcher Prime option is there so users can support the developer (and with an added bonus you get a few extra "pro" features). With you posting this, you're taking away for the developer and as far as I'm concerned, you should be reported.

Same topic already exists https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/google-cards-nova-launcher-t3622566 please do some research, it is only 2 days old. And as already said : any discussion about warez is prohibited here, see the rules if you are not aware of it.
Thread closed and illegal Warez bait removed.
You should have read the Forum Rules - you were told to when you signed up.
NEVER post cheating garbage like this on XDA.
Forum Rule, since you're ignorant of it:
6. Do not post or request warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez nor do we permit members to request, post, promote or describe ways in which warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained or used.
