Freemium Question

SethsApps

I have been looking into doing a few new apps later this year and a freemium game has been on my list for quite some time. When I have done testing with the GameSalad iOS time function, the user is able to edit the time on their device and cheat the GameSalad engine - is this still possible? Secondly, if it is, is there a way I can monitor out of app time or will it require the app to be open and using a tick counter?

Thanks in advance for the help,
Seth

Time cheating in game is not the tool problem, it is the developer problem. There isn't any development tool out there (Xcode, unity, corona...) that will block time cheating - it is up to the developer to build the mechanism for it.

Since you have access to the device clock, you can monitor for cheating.

Thanks, any suggestion on the most efficient way to do this?
