Getting Started - Accounts
License activation
Simply installing and running MobiPDF will boot the free version of our software, which while usable, is somewhat limited in features. Luckily, you can easily activate your license from our website or directly within the application with either an account or a serial key. Note that you will only get a serial key if you purchase a MobiPDF Lifetime license. In all other cases, your license will be activated automatically upon logging into the app.
Let’s examine both options in more detail.
Activating MobiPDF with an account
Creating an account
You can create a new account by logging in with an existing Google, Facebook, or Apple account, as well as create a separate MobiPDF account. To access the user login portal, click on the user icon located in the top right corner of our website, next to the search bar.
In case you don’t want to use any of your existing accounts for security or other reasons, you can create a brand new account by clicking on the “Register now” link below the sign-in options.
Next, simply fill out some details, such as your email, full name, and password to create a MobiPDF account.
To log into your newly created account:
1. Go back to the login panel and type in your MobiPDF email and password.
2. You will be redirected to our home page. To access your account settings, click on the user icon again and then on “My Account”.
3. A new window will open with a list of all your currently active MobiSystems subscriptions, quick access to the MobiDrive cloud, and an option to activate MobiPDF with a serial key (more on that later). You can also change your profile name and password, add a new email address, or even delete your account, which will erase your account data.
