iOS Question B4i license expired?

[ilan]

hi

is there a way to know if the b4i license has expired? my hosted builder did but if b4i license has expired too i would like to upgrade both.
would be nice if there would be a info inside the IDE

I think the B4i License is Forever. But you only Renew for Upgrades (when available)

Example: If you pay for STANDARD license (2 Months of free Upgrades), and B4i IDE is updated within those 2 months from v10 to v11,v12,13. You will get All and use.

But if that 2 months passed, you can still use the IDE with your license, but you will be stuck on that last version you downloaded. So if NO NEW Upgrades to the IDE after that, you are good to go, But if there is upgrade then, you have to renew

yes i know i meant if the 2 years free upgrade has expired. a info when it is expiring will be helpful.
last time my hosted builder license expired and i bought a new hosted builder license.
1-2 weeks later b4i was updated and i got a mail that i will need to buy a new license if i want to upgrade so i did bought the enterprise package that also include hosted builder.
the problem was that both hosted builder license expired 1 year later so i had 2 username i could use but for the same year and i would like to avoid that now before i buy the hosted builder again.

For now, you have to manually check either
1. Your Email: to know the time you last bought it, and if Enterprise (then count 2 years from then)
2. You wait for email when new version is released to tell you UPGRADE OR RENEW

Suggestion:

And also Add Hosted Builder Expiry Date
