How many licences..?

[Rory_Forde]

Hello all…

I have a question regarding licences (Appsheet dot com). I just want to try to understand who/what is considered a “user”. I have one licence from Appsheet dot com but it appears that I can send the app to other people (by email invite link - it is a private app) and they can use it.

So does the “user” (from a licencing point of view) just refer to the “developer” (me in this case). Are people who consume the app considered “users” for licencing purposes…?

Thanks,

RoryF

Hey Rory_Forde,

This article below should give a pretty great rundown on what is considered a user for you.

Thanks Cale…

I think that explains it well - and also explains how I was able to share an app to 3 others without the apparent need for more licences… I guess I will need to consider it a little bit more.

As a follow up… if I run out of licences would I get an email or some notice from Appsheet to say I need more licences…?

Regards,

AFAIK a user is someone logging into the App via a brower or an installed App

What you do in the definion doesn’t count. But if you install the App on your phone, even if you use the same email as your appsheet account, this counts as one user.

Thanks for the reply Simon…

If I understand that properly it is the number of users in the Appsheet.com account - not the number of users who consume the app?

Appsheet Billing is unscrupulous Questions

I’m guesing this is not just me. I have 3 Appsheet accounts, one for each license type and about 20ish app in active use. When you increase the number of licenses, Appsheet gives you a rebate on the extra licenses that you haven’t used for that month. Why can it not also just bill you for the licenses you’ve ACTUALLY used? You know… like pretty much every other service I pay for So for example, I set my account to pay for 20 licenses If I use 20 then thats fine I…

Information for users limit on prototype app Feature Requests

Hi Dear Community, As you may have experienced it, a prototype app is supposed to be limited to 10 users, on a 30-rolling days basis. I see this is a recurrent question on the Community, and it can be tricky to know how many users we have consumed. Even when being careful, which means for example going on account/App info page: [image] …it happens that this information seems not being in real-time, so in a 24h-range you can be mistaken if you are working on the 10-users edge. I would appr…
