\n Can I try Scapple before I buy?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Yes. To download a trial version, visit our\u00a0Downloads<\/a>\u00a0page and click the \u201cDownload\u201d button for your platform. If you don\u2019t own a licence, Scapple will automatically run in trial mode. The trial is exactly the same as the full version, except that it will only last for 30 days of use. (This means that if you use it every day, it will stop working after 30 days, but if you use it only every other day, it will last for 60 days.)<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n Do I need different licences for each platform?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Yes. Each licence we sell covers only one platform. So if you buy Scapple for macOS, for instance, you will not be able to use the macOS licence to unlock the Windows version. Offering single-platform licences allows us to keep prices as low as possible for users who do not need to run Scapple on more than one operating system.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n Can I use Scapple on multiple computers?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Absolutely! Scapple comes with what we call a \u201chousehold\u201d licence, which means that you can install Scapple on any machines you own and of which you are the primary user. You can also install it on the computers of family members living in the same house as you.<\/p>\n

Please note that this does not apply if you buy from Apple\u2019s App Store, however. Apple has its own licensing for software it sells. If you buy from the App Store, you can still use Scapple on multiple computers, but only computers that are set up to use your Apple account.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n Where do I download Scapple if I already have a licence?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

If you bought from our web store (or from a reseller such as Amazon), simply click on the appropriate “Download” button on our\u00a0Downloads<\/a>\u00a0page. If you haven’t yet entered your licence, the software will run in trial mode. To unlock it, enter the serial number you were sent after purchase.<\/p>\n

If you bought from Apple’s App Store, visit the “Purchased” area of the App Store app and download from there.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n What do I do if I lose my serial number?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Don\u2019t worry! We understand how easy it is to lose serial numbers as you move between computers. The first thing to do is check your email for the original purchase receipt, which will contain your serial number. If you can\u2019t find it, then visit our\u00a0Serial Number Retrieval<\/a>\u00a0page. Follow the instructions on that page to retrieve your serial number. If that still doesn\u2019t work, though,\u00a0drop us a line<\/a>\u00a0and we\u2019ll look it up for you.<\/p>\n

Note that if you purchased from Apple\u2019s App Store, you will not receive a serial number. Instead you use the App Store app to reinstall your software.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n What is your returns policy?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Full refunds will be provided within 30 days of purchase. We do have 30-day free trials of all the software we sell on our store, so please do be sure to\u00a0try before you buy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you purchased from Apple\u2019s App Store, all refunds are dealt with by Apple so you will need to contact Apple directly. We have no access to App Store customer sales records.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n Do I get updates for free?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

All minor updates are free, but we may occasionallly release more major updates that are paid-for. For instance, if you buy Scapple 1, then all 1.x updates will be free\u20141.1, 1.2, 1.7 and so on. But when one day we release Scapple 2, then you would need to pay an upgrade fee if you wanted to update to it. We do not release paid updates often, however, and are committed to enhancing and improving each version of Scapple through numerous free updates.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

\n Can I buy Scapple as a gift for someone else?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Absolutely. When going through the purchase process in our\u00a0store<\/a>, be sure to enter\u00a0your own e-mail address during the checkout process.\u00a0Please see\u00a0this page<\/a>\u00a0for further details.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t<\/div>\n<\/section>
