For hobbyist developers or students who want people to try their app but don’t want to create a verified developer account, Google also plans to offer free “limited distributions accounts” that let you share apps without being verified. These accounts will let you share apps with up to 20 devices without having “to provide a government-issued ID or pay a registration fee.”

Wow, a whole 20 devices? Thank you Google, you’re sooooooo generous!
