      @mouhamed LGPL should not be an issue. You just need to make sure you do not violate it. Most of Qt is licensed under LGPL3 now, also for Android/iOS.

          You also have to give the user the possibility to replace Qt libraries with their own versions. And at this points it gets tricky for Android/iOS apps.
          Take a look at https://www.qt.io/licensing/open-source-lgpl-obligations

          And keep in mind: I'm not a lawyer :-)
