Can I continue to distribute my application after my developer license has expired?

If you purchased your licenses under the Qt License Agreement 4.4 (released in Feb 2022) or later, you can continue to distribute your applications after your subscription has expired. Distribution of devices is subject to having acquired the corresponding Distribution Licenses. However, you are not allowed to make any changes to the software including bug fixes or security updates using Qt’s tools.

With older Qt License Agreements, there are more limitations on distributing the applications or using already purchased Distribution Licenses beyond the expiration of your license.

If you are unsure, you can check your License Agreement version from your Qt Account customer portal or contact Qt Sales.
