License to cover both iOS and Android?

We have four iOS devices (3 iPhones, 1 iPad) and one Android device in my family.

I plan to purchase the iOS license for Pleco. But I couldn't figure out how I can get the Android device covered while not burning the bridge to iOS license.

I have read http://www.pleco.com/ipxfer.html.

It seems the "easiest" way is to purchase the iOS license then transfer to Android. Quoted from the website - "If you'd like to use Pleco on both iOS and Android, we recommend purchasing it on iOS, since copies purchased on iOS can be transferred to Android and you can continue using them on iOS even after you make that transfer."

What if I add another iPhone to my family in the future? If the license had been transferred to Android, how would I get Pleco licensed on the new iPhone?

Thanks!

We call it a 'transfer' because for some users (namely those who bought originally on Palm/WM) it is, and we don't want people who skim through our instructions quickly to get a rude surprise, but in your case, having originally purchased on iOS it would not really be a transfer at all - your iOS copy will carry on just as before and you can continue to activate it on new devices (through the "Restore iTunes Purchases" command in Add-ons).
