FAQ
A few things to know.
Do I need Ultimate Tools?
No. Ultimate Counter is a standalone After Effects extension. Ultimate Tools licenses do not activate Counter Pro.
Is Free a limited-time trial?
No. Free has no expiry. Pro unlocks the features listed in the comparison and requires its own license key.
Does Pro need a constant internet connection?
Internet is required for activation and periodic verification. After successful verification, the signed license supports up to 7 days offline. Deactivation requires an online confirmation.
Does the sound change speed?
No. Sounds play at their original speed. Only the sound is trimmed at the end of the count; the text stays visible. Shorter sounds finish naturally. Fade in / out is optional.
Will updating reset my font or gradient?
The panel preserves the existing text styles of the number, prefix and suffix independently, and retains existing Start / End of Ramp settings on update.
