When does my paid subscription actually start?
I just purchased the one year license for Armor, but I noticed I still have 71 days left on my trial license. I assume if I apply the paid license, it'll overwrite the trial, meaning I lose out on over two months of Armor. Is this accurate? If so, can I wait to apply the paid license until closer to that 71 day mark, or did I screw myself by paying for it now, and I might as well apply the license today? In other words, when does the clock start on the paid license, when I purchase it or when I apply it?

Hi,
As it stands, the subscription will start on the day you activate the license and will overwrite your trial license.

- evil_mikeApprenticeHmm...I logged into Armor and it’s showing my paid license with 362 days, even though I didn’t apply it yet, and the trial license (with 71 days remaining). It seems like the trial license stopped as soon as I purchased the actual one. Not a huge deal, but kind of a bummer that I lose out on over two months of protection.
