Hi Athom and fellow developers,

Someone forked one of my published apps (which my license allows) and runs it locally with their own changes. In my developer statistics I can now see the drivers he added, even though that build never came from the App Store.

Could the developer stats and crash reports show store builds and non-store builds (CLI run/install) separately, or let us filter out the non-store ones? That way the numbers show my real users, and I don’t get stats & crash reports for code I didn’t write.

Thanks!

Guess you opened a request with Athom too?

Apologies, did not know the GH repo existed to create issues. I raised this one:

I have no problem with this at all, but now my developer statistics also show the new drivers/devices of the forked project, when they run it locally.

I guess the discussion can move there?
