1. Are Lumion updates free?

Lumion 9: If you own a Lumion 9 License Key, you are entitled to receive all updates for free until version 10.0 is released in quarter 4 of 2019.

Lumion 8: If you own a Lumion 8 License Key, all of the Lumion 8.x updates that were released in 2017 and 2018 were free. The last update that was released is Lumion 8.5.

If you own a Lumion 8 License Key (or older), an upgrade fee must be paid in order to get version 9.

However, you do not have to upgrade to version 9 if you do not want to. You can continue to use older License Keys for as long as you want.

2. How do you get the latest update? 

We regularly release new versions of Lumion with improvements, error fixes, content and new functionality.

When new versions of Lumion are released, we automatically send an email to the address that you entered when you purchased Lumion.  The email is titled Getting started with Lumion, and has the link to the Download Manager.

2.1: If you have not received an email after an update has been released, please follow these instructions:

Knowledge Base article: How do you get the email with the Lumion download link?

3. How do you install the latest update?

Each new release is a stand-alone version of Lumion that must be installed in a new folder (never in the same folder as an existing installation).

You do not have to uninstall older versions of Lumion to install a newer version.
