Let me repeat what I said in my first response: SILENT COPY PROTECTION. This means that the cracker will not be informed of crack detection for so long time that it is not feasable to wait.
Instead he will distribute your Lite-Version and unknowingly will advertise for you. After a certain amount of levels/use you just tell the user that now all content of the Lite version has been experienced and provide a link to the app store for purchasing the full version.
By always calling it "Lite" version and never "cracked Version" you give the end-user the feeling that the pirate must have made a mistake and since he now had time to get hooked he has a certain likelyhood that he will convert.
