License and updates
Every version you're entitled to runs forever.
A license never expires. Only updates do, and anything released before then is yours to keep.
| License | What it is | Updates |
|---|---|---|
| Believer | Perpetual | For life |
| Standard | Perpetual | One year from purchase |
| Renewal | Extends a license you own | One more year |
| Reactivation | Brings back a lapsed license | The latest version, plus one year |
The build-date rule
Any version released on or before the day your updates end runs on your Mac forever, even after that day. A newer version offers you a renewal instead of installing.
Devices
One license activates on up to 3 Macs, and each user account on a Mac counts as one. Deactivate one in Settings › License to free its spot. Activation happens once, online. After that the license is checked on your Mac, offline.
Transfers
Licenses aren't transferable today. If you need to move one, email us.
