Noteey Pro License is Not Designed for Permanent Use (Requires Regular Re-activation)

Feature Request

The current Noteey Pro license is not designed for genuinely perpetual use.

The Issue: Pro features become restricted unless the license is regularly re-activated by connecting to the authentication server. This includes the crucial "Export project with local files" function.

The Risk: This design poses two major problems:

  1. Future Accessibility: If the authentication server is permanently shut down or becomes unavailable, users with valid Pro licenses will have no way to remove usage restrictions.

  2. Data Lock-in: The restriction on the "Export project with local files" function means users cannot reuse valuable resources they have cultivated. Their data is effectively locked within the application, preventing portability.

Request: We request a redesign of the Pro license mechanism to allow permanent use without mandatory recurring server re-activation after the initial activation. Alternatively, an offline activation method should be provided.

    I definitely understand the concern, and we'll need to tackle this at some point down the road.

    But right now, we've got a ton of high-priority stuff on our plate and our dev resources are pretty stretched thin, so we can't jump on this one just yet.

    Plus, it's actually more complicated than it might seem at first glance. We'd need to figure out things like how to remotely disable licenses after refunds, deal with piracy risks, and a bunch of other edge cases.
