Statement about device limit
-
@Corjan-Meijerink Ich bitte Sie die Logik so anzupassen, dass man bei Erreichen des Gerätelimits am aktuell verwendeten Gerät ein anderes Gerät abmelden kann um sich am aktuellen Gerät anzumelden. Adobe verwendet diese Logik. Damit würde die missbräuchliche Verwendung ebenso verhindert, dem User Ärger erspart bleiben und ihr Team hätte weniger Aufwand. Vor einigen Tagen habe ich eine solche Möglichkeit bei der MyRouteApp gesehen und habe darauf vertraut. Heute kam dieser Bildschirm nicht und mein Konto wurde gesperrt. (Ich habe mich bereits an den Support gewendet).

That already is exactly how it works...
No change necessary. -
If topic is open in English, if anybody writes in English... why you write in other language?
No all people here knows Dutch or German.
Please, have a little respect for people that writes in English when his first language is Spanish. If we do, you can do.
Regards.
@Lluis-Arasanz I didn't mean to be rude. Since I don't speak English, I'm dependent on translation programs. I'll give it a try; hopefully, it will work.

No change necessary.@Con-Hennekens Yes, I saw this option a few days ago. However, this message didn't appear today, and my account was immediately blocked. I use up to four devices, but always alternately and never simultaneously. I think it shouldn't matter to the operators of the "MyRouteApp" if I use the app on more than two devices, as long as it's not at the same time. At least, that's how I understood the announcement.

Perfect, thank you for using translation

If you use up to three devices alternately, but at the fourth device added, you account is blocked. Three is the max limit.

Thanks for the information. It's still a shame, though, and I hope the MyRouteApp developers reconsider this strategy. I understand the reasoning behind it and support it. However, if the costs are indeed incurred due to the number of simultaneous map system uses, it shouldn't matter how many devices I use the app on, as long as it's not done at the same time.

@Reinhard-Punz, you are forgetting the part of the release notes that explained that HERE is charging per device. Therefore a limit is in place, and you can contact support for extra device licences if necessary.
because of new contracts with our suppliers we also have to implement a device limit per subscription.
As we now pay per active phone we cannot (ignorantly) allow users to use our app on an unlimited amount of phones. -
Maybe i missed it somewhere but can i see how many devices are logged with my account?
I have a third device (use it very occassionly) with the app installed. Because of the new rule i uninstalled the app on that third device but i did not logged out first. So in theory i'm still logged in with 3 devices. But can i check that?

@M.-Schrijver, yes: profile icon top right, scroll down, second option from below: My Devices.

You will only be able to see the two active device. If you log on to the third, you will be asked to logoff one of the two available.

Hi all!
Next week we will have a quick update to improve some minor issues caused by changes regarding the device limit. So this won't be the "big" next update (5.1) but just a very minor one.
Anyway, regardless of that update we already were able to make some adjustment to the device limit logic. The following therefore does not require an app update. The change we made is that if you are blocked because of too many device, we only block your new devices. Meaning the original 2 devices you used will still be accessible. We received some feedback of users getting accidentally blocked and where they understood our rational I believe they all made a very valid point that being blocked out on all devices is a bit excessive. Hence, we've made this change
Overall we are extremely happy with the device limit feature as motorclubs / companies using one license for literally 40 people have already been blocked. This now results in them either buying the appropriate amount of licenses or simply disliking us
This is still the preferred approach over raising prices for everyone to cover the costs of those abusing a single license.We are truly sorry for any inconvenience this has caused to legitimate users who just like to use more devices.
Cheers,
Corjan -

Thanks a lot for you try. I appreciate your effort.
My English is bad, I know, so I have to use also translate programs.

@Cleo your feedback was part of the decision
Dat lijkt me teveel eer. Bij mijn reizen neem ik al teveel navigatie apparatuur mee maar als er een van de drie nog getroffen kan worden door een blokkade is het heel droevig. Die derde is namelijk de enige waar ik routes nog op kan aanpassen.
Maar als jullie de mogelijkheid bieden om extra licenties af te nemen, bijvoorbeeld de huidige 2 met 3 licenties uitbreiden dan heb ik daar geen moeite mee, mag zelf op jaar basis als extra bij de lifetime edities.
Ik heb er namelijk geen enkele moeite mee dat jullie inspanning ook beloond wordt.
Ipad, Prive telefoon, zo af en toe zakelijk telefoon en een om met mijn zoon samen kunnen te rijden is net wat meer dan twee.@Cleo

If i can get extra licenses and want to pay for it is a nice bussinesscase for the Next app and get more freedom the easy way. More licenses is nothing new in the bussines. But let Myrouteapp cook some nice features and we will see what the feature bring.

that is one serious level of taking the piss so can fully understand why something had to be done

I had the same problem. Mostly on weekends away with my wife, I use three (sometimes four) devices.
Other (big tech) companies use the same principle, and I understand why MRA made this decision — especially because of the ***** who used more than 40 devices on one account. I really don’t understand that kind of behavior.
For me, it’s not about the money. I don’t mind paying for a product like MRA. I use it a lot, and especially with the NN, I use it even more than before. For me, it’s more about the user experience. I don’t want to create multiple accounts.
So I think I did the best thing you can do in this case: create a support ticket. Explain your situation, and maybe they have a solution.
And they gave me a very good solution!

Same here...I wrote an E-Mail to the support.
Got an offer which I confirmed.
Can now use 4 Devices...I am super happy. -
Same here - purchased an additional licence at a very fair price point.
My device limit is set to 4, all good, thanks to Corjan and Lisanne!
