Short answer
Choose 3 months for a short test or temporary workload, 6 months for regular but cautious use, and 12 months when the account supports ongoing workshop work. Decide new activation or renewal separately.
The smallest payment is not automatically the best choice. Stopping, checking expiry and renewing often can interrupt work, while paying for a long period you will not use wastes access time. Base the choice on the work you can reasonably expect.
What each period is designed for
| Period | Best fit | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| 3 months / 90 days | A first evaluation, seasonal demand, a short project, or a workshop that does not yet know its UnlockTool volume. | Smallest commitment, but you plan the renewal sooner. |
| 6 months / 180 days | Regular use with a medium planning horizon, when demand is established but a full year is not yet justified. | Balances continuity and commitment; still needs a mid-year expiry check. |
| 12 months / 360 days | Ongoing professional use where the tool is part of the workshop’s daily process. | Longest continuity and lowest cost per month, paid once for the year. |
Licence length and device support are different
A longer licence does not unlock more functions. Device support depends on the exact model code, chipset, boot or security state, firmware, connection mode and the requested operation — and it can change with tool updates.
Before ordering for one specific job, use the supported-model search and treat the current application or developer information as the final reference.
Ask these before choosing
- How often will the account be used? Estimate from recent paid work, not hoped-for future orders.
- Would an expiry interrupt ongoing jobs? If continuity matters, renew before the current period ends.
- Is this account new or previously activated? That decides the service type, not the period.
- Are you buying for one exact device? Check the device and operation before choosing any period.
Before checkout
- The UnlockTool account exists and you can sign in.
- The account history clearly points to new activation or renewal.
- The period matches your expected use and expiry planning.
- The target device and operation have been checked separately.
- You have the account email and username ready — the order page asks for both.
