Mac Pro and your license

What Pro adds on Mac, how to buy, claim or restore it with your email, and what happens when it ends.

Free and Pro

  • Free: up to 100 saved Clips, 3 automatic segmentations, and recognition of selections up to 30 seconds.
  • Pro: unlimited Clips and automatic segmentation, and recognition of longer segments and Clips.
  • A Mac Pro license works on one Mac at a time.

Buy Mac Pro

Mac Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It includes all updates to LingoClipper for Mac 1.x and works on one Mac at a time.

  1. Click Buy Pro in Settings › Pro, or use the button below.
  2. Pay on the checkout page. Enter the email you want to unlock Pro with: your receipt goes there, and the app finds your purchase by it.
  3. Update LingoClipper to the latest version. Then click Restore Pro in Settings › Pro and verify the email you used at checkout.

Creem sells Mac Pro for us as reseller and merchant of record: it takes the payment, handles sales tax and emails your receipt with its order number. Refunds follow our refund policy.

If the app says no Pro was found right after you pay, wait a minute or two and try again: confirming the payment can take a moment.

Mac Pro is a one-time purchase. Launch price US$19 · US$29 after the launch period.

Use Pro on a new or reinstalled Mac

  1. Open Settings › Pro and click Restore Pro.
  2. Verify the email you claimed or bought Pro with, using the code sent to it.
  3. If the license is in use on another Mac, click Confirm replacement to move it to this Mac.

The other Mac stops refreshing its license, but may keep using it offline until its current offline period ends.

Staying verified

LingoClipper checks your license online from time to time and keeps working offline in between; Offline verification until shows for how long. If you see Connect to verify your license., connect to the internet and click Verify now.

When Pro ends

Mac Pro you bought doesn’t end. It stops only if the purchase is refunded in full or disputed with your bank.

Your Clips, recordings, segments and review history stay. The free limits apply again: if you have 100 or more Clips, you can still use them all, but you can save a new one only after deleting enough to go below 100.

Deactivate a Mac or unlink your email

  • Deactivate this Mac stops Pro on this Mac until you restore it. Your Library is not deleted.
  • Unlink email permanently stops that email from restoring Pro or moving it to another Mac, including Pro you bought. This Mac keeps its Pro (a claimed Pro until it expires), and your Library is not deleted.

What the license service stores, and for how long, is described in the privacy policy.
