BiteSMS 5.0

Hi, I jailbroke my phone yesterday and installed BiteSMS 5.0 this morning. I purchased the license so I wouldn't have ads and my question is: Is one purchased license only good for one phone? My son also has BiteSMS on his phone but only the free one. I would like to update him too but don't necessarily want to buy another license if I don't have to.
I know in the app store as long as you use the same itunes account you can put purchased apps on multiple phones as long as itunes is authorized under the same account. Since I don't see that packages are under a certain login to purchase I wasn't sure if that was the case here as I have never jailbroke before. Thanks for any responses!!

Version 5.0
14 October 2010
Ringtones for SMS and MMS messages configurable per contact!!! Choose any Native SMS sound, Native Phone Ringtone, iTune Ringtone or biteSMS pre-packaged ringtone.
Quick Reply and Quick Compose Previous Messages feature!! Slide the little curtain bar to view (20) previous messages, single tap it to open full height and single tap to dismiss. Or just drag it up and down. Even drag it down a little and keep typing!
Retry on Failed feature, so that you can press [Send] and now rely on it actually getting sent!
Now biteSMS is iOS 4.1 compatible.
Added Contact picture in the conversation screen - done really nicely of course!
Added Bluetooth Keyboard support for the biteSMS application. [Send] = Shift Return and [Messages] = Command Left. In addition the pop-up menu now displays correctly.
Improved the Quick Call aspect of Quick Compose, such that now you can hit the favs icon and quickly make a phone call.
Added a new feature in Quick Compose to "Auto Show Favs".
Added support for Skype from Quick Compose and Quick Reply (new Skype button).
Support either (or none) Apple’s character counter or the biteSMS character counter. In some specific languages (e.g. Korean) Apple has better counter support for special characters.
We no longer show the contact picture in Quick Reply if the privacy settings are such that the name is hidden.
Improved iPhone 4 graphics.
Fixed a bunch of bugs and also did some layout refinements.
You have to buy another licence but that small banner with ads on the bottom of the screen when inside the bitesms app is not that bad.
Best part about 5.0 is that it's free. I use the apple message app and use BiteSMS's quick reply / compose without any ads.
