So my dilemma is that I payedpaid for Minecraft PE some years ago, but then I deleted my Google Play Store account, and got a new one, so what I'm wondering is if it is okay to download the apk because I'm not paying for it again, and I think it would because technically an apk file is kind of like a rom backup of a cartridge game and those are legal to download if you own a legal version of the game, but my issue is that I'm downloading the apk of the newer update then I bought, so if I had to go to trial for app pirating, which I don't think I will have to, but I am just being hypothetical, they may be able to claim that the update is technically not the game I purchased, but from what I know Google Play Store purchases are tracked not by games but by licenses, so long question short, if I payed for a license to own MCPE, can I legally download the apk for it, I will probably anyway even if it's not but these problems interest me, so I just want to know the answers, sorry for long post, and thanks in advance!new one.

Can I download an apk of an app I have payed for?
