How do you clear a cached Playready license on an Android device?

Background: When issuing Playready DRM licenses, you can specify an expiration time on the license. From what I understand, if the license hasn't expired, the license is stored somewhere on the client and subsequent requests can just use this license instead of making another drm request to obtain a new license.

On Mac and Windows these licenses are stored in specific directories like: /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/PlayReady/mspr.hds (mac) C:/ProgramData/Microsoft/PlayReady/mspr.hds (windows)

You can just remove these files in order to clear the stored licenses.

I wasn't able to find documentation on how to clear the licenses on mobile devices (Android or iOS). Could someone please advise?

There are different implementation of PlayReady for Android devices, each of which potentially stores the PlayReady database in a different location. Your best bet is to contact the vendor of the PlayReady SDK that you use (if 3rd party) or simply use a filesystem browser to find the equivalent file on the Android device.
