Account
Two separate things live here, and it's worth being clear about which is which:
- Signing in is for cloud features — Live Notes in the cloud, the show team, your identity on notes.
- Your licence lives on this Mac. Recording works without signing in.
Account
Signed out, there's a Sign In… button and nothing else you need. Signed in, you get your name and email, Sign Out, and a licence banner: "Licence active — Production", or a warning that no licence is attached to the account (which leaves you in Viewer mode until you buy one or enter a key below).
Direct License
Paste a License Key and hit Validate. A valid key shows its tier, and a Cached pill when it's running from the cached licence (so a show can start with no internet).
- Remove License — clears the key from this Mac.
- Deactivate This Mac — frees the licence seat and drops this Mac to viewer-only. Use it when you're retiring or re-purposing a machine.
- Manage Billing ↗ — showrevue.com/account.
Active Plan
Your effective tier, and where it comes from:
- "Licensed to this Mac — any operator can sign in, and it works offline."
- "Active via license key."
- "View recordings and cues only — activate a license to unlock recording."
What each tier unlocks: Licence Tiers.
