Frequently asked questions about the AquaCalculator
Software is never finished. To finance further development and support, software is traditionally developed in versions. New versions are released at regular intervals, offering new functions and improvements. In order to enjoy the features of a new version, it had to be bought and paid for again.
This classic version model does not exist with AquaCalculator. We constantly integrate new features and provide updates and improvements. To finance the continuous improvements, the support and our powerful backend aCloud, we have decided on a subscription model.
For a very reasonable annual fee you can use the AquaCalculator universe. Of course, you can cancel at any time if you no longer need the services of AquaCalculator.
You can use as many devices as you like within one operating system with your licence. Apple requires that they run under the same Apple ID.
There are two different versions of the AquaCalculator for iOS.
The “AquaCalculator Classic” has not been further developed since the end of 2018. However, it is still available for buyers of this version and can still be used.
The current version for macOS is the “AquaCalculator”.
If you are still using the “AquaCalculator Classic” (version 3.8.91), we strongly recommend switching to the current version, which can be found as “AquaCalculator” in the AppStore.
AquaCalculator for macOS is currently available in two versions.
The AquaCalculator CL (CL = Classic) is the version of the AquaCalculator developed specifically for macOS. It is the solution for all those who still use macOS before the Monterey version. It requires its own licence which cannot be used for iOS / iPadOS. It will continue to receive updates regarding balling recipes, salts and other data, but will no longer be technically developed.
The “AquaCalculator” without CL is the current macOS version. It is developed together with the iOS / iPad version. It runs from macOS BigSur. If your operating system is older, you have to use the “AquaCalculator CL”.
With the “AquaCalculator” for macOS there is a licence for all Apple systems. It is valid for the macOS, iOS and iPadOS versions.
If you use the “AquaCalculator CL”, you should change to the “AquaCalculator”.
No. They are each independently developed products, each of which requires its own licence at the moment.
We do not offer so-called cross-licensing models of AquaCalculator. This has several reasons:
No. The use included with Fauna Marin currently only refers to the Windows version. For technical reasons, the licence can unfortunately only be used for the Windows version, as the store systems required on the other platforms Android, iOS and macOS (App Store, Google Play Store) do not provide for “vouchers”.
