Hello,

I apologize for asking my questions again, but after carefully reading the previous email, I am still a bit confused.

My situation is as follows: I work as the IT Director at a company in New York. Among many other responsibilities, I have developed several apps for internal use by our employees. My question is straightforward: With the new licensing model, does each employee need to pay for a license? I am currently using the "Community" version, but it does not work on Apple Silicon devices. Therefore, I am considering purchasing a new license.

Thank you for your assistance.

If they are internal apps in your company then you understand it correctly. 
They are seats. So your cost for 3 (2 users plus yourself) would be $1320 
annually. Alex is referring to apps for sale, not to internal users within your 
company.

Kind regards,

Kevin

If that is true then I misunderstand the licensing model. My understanding is 
that every app I distribute for someone else to use is a “seat” as well as me 
the developer, another seat. I have 3 “seats” at present including myself, all 
are internal users to the company I work for, but the company does not pay me 
to do this development. I wrote the application to make generating forms easier 
for the IT technicians in the field.


Are you saying I can purchase one developer seat for $499, build 2 standalone 
apps and not have to pay for the other two seats, as long as I do not make any 
money from the app??

It’s the one signposted as something like “growing the community”.

I too dislike videos, so avoided watching this until Kevin said there was info 
about lifetime license holders in a video.

btw, I am a hobbyist deriving no income from LC, and I think you’re incorrect 
about there being no place for us in LC’s future. We can build and distribute 
our non-íncome-producing apps by getting a single developer seat ($449 per 
year); not a trivial amount but not much for a hobby (less than membership at 
my local golf club or gym, even before I think about buying clubs or trainers 
or replacing all the lost golf balls). The expiration of the lifetime license 
will be compensated for by a discount at the first license renewal (in December 
2025??), though we don’t yet know how that will be calculated.
