Activate, renew & move a license
At a glance
Website keys work with supported Windows and Mac website builds. A normal desktop license allows one active device. Paid licenses last one year and do not renew automatically.
Step by step
- 01
Find the key in your purchase email. Open the plan or trial badge in SmartBlur, then choose Activate License.
- 02
Paste the key and activate while online. If your paid plan is not shown, check the active license and the installer source before contacting support.
- 03
To change computers, remove the active license on the old device first, then activate the supported website build on the new device.
- 04
Renew through the official renewal page. Early renewal preserves remaining paid time. After expiry, the app returns to Free until renewal.
Before you share
Do not post your full key publicly. Legacy lifetime licenses have their original terms and may have different transfer rules; ask support rather than assuming the annual rules apply.

Free Trial
SmartBlur offers a 7-day Pro trial on one device with no credit card required.
- The website trial is tied to your device (one trial per supported Windows PC or Apple silicon Mac).
- After 7 days, you can continue using the app with limited features or purchase a license.
- No credit card required.
The current Mac download is the website-licensed SmartBlur 2.1.2 edition and uses the same SmartBlur license service as the Windows website build.
Purchasing a License

Activating Your License
After purchasing, you'll receive a website license key by email. The same type of key works with a supported Windows or Mac website build.
- Open SmartBlur.
- Click the plan or trial badge in the top bar, such as Pro Trial or Activate License.
- If the License Status panel opens, click Activate License.
- Paste your license key and click Activate.
- The app connects to our server to validate and bind the key to your device.
Device Limits
Each license supports a set number of devices (typically 1 by default):
- Activating a new device — Enter the license key on the supported Windows PC or Mac you want to use. If you've reached the limit, deactivate the existing device first.
- Deactivating a device — Click the plan badge in SmartBlur, open License Status, and choose Remove License. This frees the device slot.
Note: Active fixed-term licenses can deactivate normally. For a grandfathered lifetime-access license whose update window has expired, device moves are blocked; contact support if you need an activation reset.
Renewing Your License
Annual plans include 1 year of paid access and updates. SmartBlur shows a prominent renewal warning during the final 14 days. When access expires:
- The saved key remains available for renewal.
- Paid features stop and the app switches to the Free tier.
- New updates and paid-tier device activations are unavailable.
To renew, visit smartblur.app/renew and enter your license key. Renewing early extends from the current expiration date, so you keep all remaining time. Renewing after expiration starts a new one-year term at payment confirmation.
For a legacy lifetime license, access never expires. If its update period is limited, renewal changes only the update expiration date.
Moving to Another Device
- On the old device, click the plan badge, open License Status, and choose Remove License.
- On the new supported Windows PC or Apple silicon Mac, install the website build and enter your license key.
License FAQ
Can I use the same key on multiple devices? Your license allows the number of simultaneous devices shown in License Status—normally one active device. You can deactivate it and move the key between supported Windows and Mac website builds.
What happens if I lose my key? Check your purchase confirmation email. You can also find your key in your account if you registered.
Does the app work offline? Yes. After a successful online validation, SmartBlur uses the last verified entitlement offline until its recorded entitlement expiration. Reconnect periodically so the app can refresh license, renewal, and update status.
