License: device limit?

[actuallymentor]

Hello!

I'm considering buying the pro version (was going to make a CLI script but this looks prettier) but have a bunch of devices.

Is there a device limit to the license? Can I consider this a "family" license that I can share with my family/friends up to a point?

Hi @actuallymentor,

If you buy an AlDente Pro license, you can use it on up to three users.

Cheers,

Thanks for your response!

Do I understand that with user you mean "apple account"? In that case my use case would be mostly covered. I've got 3 devices associated to my own Apple account purely for testing purposes.

Personally I always appreciate Family Licences. Software like little snitch and the like are examples for which I tend to just opt for more permissive licenses. Price is not the main issue, it's more a convenience factor.

[MatthiasKerbl]

Exactly, with users I mean macOS user accounts.

[actuallymentor]

Thanks for the clarification, I thought you meant apple accounts and not device users.

Will switching device users or resetting the mac consume a quota？

[MatthiasKerbl]

Every time you activate AlDente Pro with a license will use one quota.

Cheers,
Matthias

@MatthiasKerbl , need for info on license.
let's say, if I have 3 devices, and I activate pro on all 3 devices, and later on If I guy a new laptop, will I be able to transfer the license to the new device?
or I will have to buy a new license?

Hi @pawanjenu,

Yes, you will be able to use your license on your new MacBook. You just need to deactivate your license on the old device and reactivate it on the new one. If you forget to deactivate the license on your old MacBook, you can also send a message to our support and we will do it for you.

Best,
Matthias

@MatthiasKerbl

Hi @thestackdev,

If you forgot to deactivate the license before you reset your MacBook, you can just write our support and we will deactivate the license for you.

Best,
Matthias
