Costs

Free trial – for the month of installation, and the month after, you get everything without needing to pay for it. After that time you still get the calendar and the About Today pages, for ever. So if that’s all you want, you don’t need to pay. Here is a page about free trials.

Registration code – to make the program work without any time limits at all, you need a Universalis registration code. If you already have a registration code, use it again: you don’t need to buy a new one. Otherwise the price of a registration code is:

Mac App Store

You can also buy Universalis for £9.99 (or $11.99 or €14.99)from the Mac App Store. It is cheaper because it has a few limitations:

  • It can’t create e-books.
  • It doesn’t give you a registration code you can use for other Universalis apps and programs.
  • It can’t give you a discount on a registration code.
  • There isn’t a free trial: you have to buy it to try it.

If you want the Mac App Store version, you don’t need to read the rest of this page. Just press the button:
