Remove Your License from iMazing
You can remove your license from iMazing using the License menu's Remove License option:

Note that you do not need to remove your Device License from one computer before you activate iMazing on another – the Device License is only tied to your licensed mobile devices, and can be used on any number of macOS or Windows computers.
Remove a Device from Your License
Linking a specific iPhone, iPad or iPod device to your license is permanent and cannot be undone. Licensed devices can be used with all iMazing updates (including major versions), for their entire lifetime, on any Mac or PC computer.
💡 Did you mistakenly link a device to your license, or did iMazing fail to perform the expected task with a specific device? Please contact us immediately with the details. We trust our users and will quickly handle legitimate requests.
Upgrade to the Unlimited Devices Plan
If you use iMazing's premium features with more than 4 new devices per year, the Unlimited Devices plan may be more advantageous. Get in touch with our support team for upgrade conditions.
