How old is your license? You might check with your sales rep if this is the current licensing structure.

I thought it was now either limited or unlimited, and when limited it’s just limited to N sessions of any kind.

But I don’t really know these things or why they change so often.

Oh, good point. I got the license during 8.0.1 or 2.

Thanks!

Turns out I have the “Browser Only” edition.

and I have to purchase an Upgrade to Full Perspective from Browser Only Edition. Which is 1/3 of my whole license cost.

Neither Workstation nor The IOS or Android app work since I’ve updated too 8.1+

I shouldn’t have updated lol
