Change From a Monthly/Annual Subscription to a Lifetime License

We know some prefer a Lifetime license over those recurring subscriptions, so we've made a Lifetime version of Strongbox available for you. We would just ask you to consider sticking with the subscription, as a Lifetime license is harder for us to manage as a small company. Either way we're very happy you've decided to support us!

Instructions

  1. Cancel your existing subscription (Very Important!)
    • NB: Strongbox won't downgrade immediately if you cancel your subscription. It will need to fully expire and even then we give people a few weeks grace period before the downgrade.
    • Please note if you don't cancel your subscription it will continue to charge. The Lifetime purchase is separate from the subscription and we can't connect them due to Apple limitations.
  2. Install Strongbox Pro
    • You can find the Lifetime edition of Strongbox Pro here for both iOS and macOS.
    • NB: It is a separate App than the current monthly/yearly App you have been using.
    • We recommend that you install Strongbox Pro before deleting the older Strongbox app. This means all of your settings/databases will copy across to the Strongbox Pro app.
    • When you are happy that Strongbox Pro is working OK, you can then delete/remove the old Strongbox Freemium app from your device.
  3. Remove the previous Strongbox app
    • If you leave the old app in place. it is easy to get confused and some settings might not copy across perfectly, so we always recommend against side by side installs.
    • On iOS - Simply long press/tap on the Strongbox (none-Pro) app and choose 'Remove App'
    • On macOS - See the help article here or simply go to your Applications folder and remove the Strongbox (none-Pro) app.
