How are you going to distribute your APK? if someone has the APK then he can copy it before the installation.

And what would be the best way to control that copy but can not install it on more than one device?

That seems to be an issue with Android apk deployment through the Play store. Software can be found that will retrieve the apk installation file, even from regular (non-rooted) devices. It is merely a short step for a user to rename the .apk as a .zip and get access to the assets stored inside. As you can imagine it will take a power-user to complete this successfully. It is one very good reason to encrypt underlying databases.
