How to hide Oracle Apex Database Application Code After Publish

With Oracle APEX, after I finished developing application I want to publish it to customer on its LAN network, when I export file I choose Build Status Override: Read Application Only But when I want to import it, it can be changed to Read and Build Application and -in other hand- its Build status can be changed to Read and Build Application from instance administration even if I imported it as Read Application Only.

I want to import Application in a way that no one can modify it or see its code.

Any Help Please ?!...

You cannot prevent customers from seeing the code of your APEX application as it is all stored in plain text in tables. What you can do is put most of your code into packages which can be wrapped. (Mind you, you can get software to unwrap package code anyway, so this isn't bulletproof.)

What you are describing is the APEX Runtime only install.

The documentation explains it here: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E71588_01/HTMIG/converting-between-runtime-and-full-development-environments.htm#HTMIG29458

The short version is on the runtime only database run this script.
