# Manage License Key

### Access the License Key Manager

You can access the License Key Manager from the user dropdown in the app.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Important:** You can also access the License Manager via this URL <https://app.lemonsqueezy.com/my-orders>.
{% endhint %}

### Deactivate the License Key From a Device

There are two ways to deactivate a device from your license key.

#### Option 1: Manage Devices Page

Visit <https://app.seoutils.app/manage-devices> to view and deactivate all devices activated on your license — even devices you no longer have access to.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Enter Your License Key and Email**

Enter your license key and the **email address used to purchase** the license, then click **"Continue"**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Verify Your Email**

A verification link will be sent to your email. Click the link in the email to verify ownership. The link expires in 10 minutes.

{% hint style="info" %}
Your session is remembered for 30 days, so you won't need to verify again on the same browser.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Deactivate Devices**

You'll see a list of all devices activated on your license. Click **"Deactivate"** next to any device you want to remove.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Only the license key owner (the email used during purchase) can access the Manage Devices page. This prevents unauthorized deactivation.
{% endhint %}

#### Option 2: From the Lemon Squeezy Dashboard

To deactivate the license key from your current device and activate it on a new one, go to the [License Key Manager](#access-the-license-key-manager) and follow these steps.

#### Option 3: From the App on This Computer

Open the user menu, choose **License Manager**, and find **Deactivate license on this computer**. This frees the activation slot so the license can be used on another computer; SEO Utils stops working here until a license key is activated again.

Click **"Deactivate license"** to confirm, or **"Keep it activated"** to go back. Your reports and data on this computer are not deleted.

{% hint style="info" %}
If Remote Access is on for this computer, the dialog also reminds you that browser access ends immediately and that your Remote Access plan is not cancelled. See [Remote Access](/guide/remote-access.md#deactivating-your-license-on-this-computer).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**An expired license key cannot be activated again until it is renewed.** If your license has expired, the dialog shows a red warning and asks you to tick **I understand this license key cannot be activated again, here or on another computer, until it is renewed** before **"Deactivate anyway"** becomes available. Use **"Renew license key"** first if you plan to keep using SEO Utils.
{% endhint %}

### Renew Your License Key

To renew your license key please visit this URL <https://app.seoutils.app/renew-license-key>.

{% hint style="danger" %}
You can re-activate your license on new devices as long as it’s valid. However, once it expires, re-activation is no longer possible due to Lemon Squeezy’s system.
