Plans

PlanDescription

Tota licensePay once and use that version of Tota forever. Includes one year of updates and support; renew optionally to keep receiving updates.
Lifetime licenseOne-time purchase with updates included for good.

Activating a License

  1. Purchase a license from the Tota website.
  2. Open Settings > About.
  3. Enter your license key and click Activate.

Each key supports a limited number of machines. To move to a new Mac, deactivate the license on the old machine first (Settings > About > Deactivate) — activating on a new machine when the limit is reached shows an activation-limit error. Entering a different key on the same machine replaces the previous one automatically.

License keys and instance identifiers are stored securely in the macOS Keychain.

Validation

  • Tota validates your license online every 24 hours.
  • If you are offline, a 7-day grace period allows continued use without validation.
  • After 7 days offline, you will need an internet connection to re-validate.

Trial Details

  • The trial starts on first launch and lasts 14 days.
  • All features are available during the trial.

Expired Licenses

  • When a yearly license expires, the app keeps working — only updates and support pause. Renew to resume receiving updates.
  • An expired trial disables all functionality until a license is activated.
