Why do I receive this pop-up?

You are currently using a free version of AnyDesk and your user behavior indicates that you are using our free licenses for commercial purposes. If you have already purchased a license, please make sure to log in with your user account when using AnyDesk to avoid being wrongly categorized as a private user.

Is this the same as with other providers?

No, we do not handle this the same way as our competitors. Our intention is to restrict abusers, not our private user community. When AnyDesk is used professionally, a paid license is required. This way, we can continue offering a free version for private use and help you support family and friends without having to pay.

What can I do if I'm wrongly restricted?

If you believe you have been wrongly categorized as a commercial user, please request to get whitelisted, so we can look into your case individually. If you already have a license, please insert your license key into your AnyDesk client, so we can identify you correctly. Not sure how? Here's a step-by-step guide.

Have more questions?

The meaning of commercial use (or professional use) defines as follows: You are using AnyDesk for professional, work-related purposes. Examples are remote work and remote support scenarios. Using AnyDesk at home to access your workstation in the office also qualifies as a commercial use definition. Learn more about the differences between the
professional and private use of AnyDesk.

When used commercially, users require a paid license. We offer licenses for different needs and requirements. In this Help Center article, you will find a detailed overview of all available licenses for professional use and who we recommend them to.

Free users without a user account may experience more limitations in features. To expand your connection time and avoid timeouts as a free user, you can create a AnyDesk user account free of charge. If you want to experience the full range of features, we recommend purchasing one of our paid licenses for professional use.
