Another Android developer is testifying: Robert Beaty, CTO of OCV.

In a September 2022 deposition, he’s talking about how his company uses Google’s Android emulator and analytics features, among others, to help his clients, without Google directly charging him for those tools. He passes along the analytics to his clients, he says, so they can see how their apps are performing.

He said earlier that OCV primarily builds website for clients in the law enforcement and public safety sectors — police, fire, public health, clerk of courts.

One of OCV’s apps is HCPH Overdose Rescue, we just saw — it’s an app that explains how to administer Narcan.

Epic is countering by asking Beaty whether OCV could have decided just to make apps for Android users instead of also building them for iOS (presumably to show Android and iOS don’t compete for the same users).

It “wasn’t really a consideration for us because we wanted the widest reach possible,” he says.
