This is the full working version of the program. The only difference between a licensed copy, and the Trial version is:
Trial version is limited to 30 Days use.
You need to request an evaluation code before using the software.
Note: This should be emailed to you within a few seconds. If it doesn't arrive, check your spam filters.
Screen indicating days left on trial at start-up.
In the Trial version, you cannot remove the Rainyday software watermark on exported images.
Since this is a full working version of the program, when you purchase a licence everything is unlocked and you don't need to install, or loose any of your changes.

Demonstration
Demo Version
This version of APM has the import of new images into APM disabled, so you cannot add any of your own images into APM.
However, it comes with a sample database with over 200 images (including some AVI's), so you can see for yourself DTS in action, the compare screen etc, and create and apply more tags (including
your own) to the available images.
Nag screen on start-up (telling you this is a Demo version).
Upgrade Versions
Visit the archive for older versions, and beta versions (when available).
Review the System Requirements
Your computer needs these resources as a minimum to run APM :
Windows 2000, XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista, or Windows 7.

Standard APM only requires 20 Mbytes of space after installation and deletion of temporary installation files.
