How to download mac and Windows

[Quincy_Yao]

I would like to ask questions about affinity Photo and affinity DESIGNER. I see you are now in the Chinese market is discounted, the price is 258 yuan. I would like to ask, for example, I bought a mac version of the photo photo, when I was in another Windows computer is not also spent 258 yuan to buy Windows version of it? Or when I bought the affinity photo I was equivalent to get the authorization code I can in the specified number of the mac, and Windows at the same time use only charge a fee? Please reply as soon as possible

Hi Quincy,

 

You will need to purchase a separate licence for each operating system I'm afraid.

 

Thanks

The Mac version is sold only through the Mac App Store ("MAS" for short). There is no authorization code for any app sold through MAS. Instead, they are all linked to the Apple ID used when they are purchased. The MAS license allows buyers to install the app on as many Apple branded Macs as they own or control. There are some additional restrictions for commercial users that may require the purchase of multiple copies, but for non-commercial users only one purchase is required.

 

Affinity sells the Windows versions through the company's own store. They do require supplying an authorization key to run; this is sent to buyers in an email at the time of purchase. The licensing terms are very similar to the MAS ones.

 

However, like Callum said, neither license is cross-platform. In part this is because Apple does not share info relating to Apple ID's with other companies for security reasons.
