# License

Model Train Script is build because of a passion for modeltrains without any profit in mind. The license is meant to pay for the upkeep and development of the app.

You can use Model Train script without a license, the following limitations do apply:

* Max 4 vehicles
* Max 2 scripts
* Max 40 layout items.

After purchasing a license you can enjoy Model Train Script without any restrictions. A license can easily be bought via the information tab on the main screen.

## Questions

### **Model Train Script used to be completely free to use, what changed?**

We develop the app without any commercial intentions, however the donations are by no means enough to pay for the hosting and licenses cost.&#x20;

With the income from the licenses we can pay the upkeep of the app and invest in further development and different hardware components to support

### I don't have a license but currently I have more items than allowed according to the restrictions. What will happen?

Nothing, Model Train Script will keep functioning as usual. As soon as you are trying to add new vehicles, scripts or layout items a pop-up will appear mentioning you need a license.

### I have multiple devices, do I have to buy a license for every device?

No, licenses are shared across all your devices. Also Family Sharing is enabled, therefore you can share your license with family members.

### **I already donated, do I have to buy a license?**

We can imagine it might feel unfair to pay a license after already making a donation to Model Train Script.  If so please contact us at <contact@modeltrainscript.app> so we can find a custom solution for you.
