SDK hop question

Quick question, if anyone knows. I know with the GTM iOS app, the “plus” extra hop count subscription is tied to the device’s Apple ID. Something similar for the Android version. What’s the story for an SDK app on the same device? For Linux-based SDK devices, is the sending hop count the regular count, or plus? I’m guessing the former, but it’s worth making sure. If that’s the case, is there any way to get SDK apps promoted to the higher hop count?
