CCleaner Product Licence across platforms

Recommended Posts

I currently have a CCleaner Professional licence on my Windows device that I can use on up to five (5) additional devices. Does this license also include as one of those five (5) possible devices CCleaner for Android, such that I can add and activate it as part of my existing product license?

You can use CCleaner Pro Plus licences on PC, Mac, or any mixture of the two.

Unfortunately though not Android, you have to get a licence for each Android device through the Google Play Store.

That's because of Google's licencing setup. (They want their cut upfront).

We are told that there are negotiations ongoing to try and get around that restriction so that the same CCleaner licences can then be used on all 3 operating systems, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

For more info on CCleaner licensing, bundles, and which OS's they can be used on see here:

Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning? See this link:

Nukecad,

Thank you so very much for the clarification and for the cautionary recommendation to not hold my breath as it pertains to Google as I may be greatly disappointed at the speed in which they come to an agreement, if ever.

Thinking outside of the box, in regards to negotiations with Google, for those of us who have purchased a Professional product license, one way to resolve this for those customers, in the short-term, would be to offer a special add-on price that provides greedy Google (like they're not already wealthy enough) with their "cut" and whatever small sum Piriform wishes to also collect from us, if anything, for adding that platform to our existing license. This could be a reasonable "win-win" solution for all until such time as Google comes to their senses. I am ever hopeful in small miracles. Thank you!
