I have a Universal License and I want to know if I can install my apps on another computer within my home. I originally used a PC for which I purchased the UL, but I have now upgraded to a Mac. Can I install the app on two Macs now?

Short answer is yes. For a more complete answer about how many computers the licenses cover, refer to the next to the last FAQ titled "How many devices can I install Affinity apps on?" at https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/affinity-2-faq/ or the equivalent if you live somewhere other than the US.

https://affinity.serif.com/affinity-2-faq

they will be redirected to

https://affinity.serif.com/de/affinity-2-faq/

but a user in the UK is redirected to

https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/affinity-2-faq/

https://support.apple.com/102646

It’s quite interesting to compare the last section on the ‘pt-br’ and ‘pt-pt’ versions of the above page. (If you try to do this for the Affinity 2 FAQ page, pt-br will work but pt-pt will give you a ‘404 Not Found’ error, because the Affinity apps only support Brazilian Portuguese, not European Portuguese.)

However, if I go to the first URL above, I get redirected to https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/affinity-2-faq/ , not to the US page.

That’s quite surprising! I wonder why your system thinks you’re in the UK.

I have no idea other than maybe it just looks at the 'en' & guesses, but that seems farfetched.

Anyway, I suggested using the appropriate region code in the fully specified URL because using the locale-omitted version did not take me to the US page.
