Why don’t you give it to ON1 PR 2026 users ? I don’t need MAX, I have not any Adobe soft neither 3 computers, no need of plugin use in other softs.

I agree 100%. I have already paid for Photo Raw. Then I paid to “upgrade” to Photo RAW 2026. Now you want me to pay for ON1 Photo RAW MAX. When will this stop. I am beginning to think your marketing plan is just a way to get customers to constantly upgrade and pay additional money for “exciting new features”.
ON1 Photo Raw 2026 will probably be my last purchase from your company.
I also notice that you are not responding to any of these posts. You are either not monitoring them or not caring.

Totally understand where you’re coming from, and it’s fair feedback. Just to clarify, nothing is being taken away from what you’ve already purchased. Photo RAW 2026 remains a complete product, and you’ll continue to get free 2026.x updates. Photo RAW MAX is optional. It’s simply a higher-tier bundle for photographers who want additional tools (restore AI), especially ones that rely on ongoing cloud infrastructure. Our goal isn’t to force upgrades, it’s to give photographers choice—own it outright, or opt into more if it makes sense for your workflow. And you’re right on the communication—we should be more active here. We do care, and we’re listening.
