A licensee of an app is an individual or organization that has been granted permission to use the software under the terms of a licensing agreement. This agreement, often called an End-User License Agreement (EULA), defines the rules, restrictions, and conditions for using the app, which is legally necessary because users don’t technically own the software. The licensee is given a license from the app’s copyright holder or publisher (the licensor) to use the app. The user or licensee agrees to the user terms and license agreement.
