    You’ll be able to continue to use the software after the trial has expired.

    Hi there,
    I have just downloaded SketchUp 6 which you’ve said is free. Does this mean free for the trial version or will I still be able to use this after the trial has expired?

    Thank you. I’ve updated the post.

    Hi there peter

    I have been looking everywhere for Sketchup 2013. So happy I have been able to find it. Awesome site btw.

    However the 2013 make you have is actually the pro-version when I downloaded. I expected it to convert back to the make version when it expired but It won’t let me get on to sketch up. Any ideas?

    Peter,

    To continue to use the pro version. you must purchase a license from the Sketchup.com website.

    Alternatively you can use Sketchup Make non-commercially without a license.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi, I’m a student and I’ve downloaded Sketchup Pro for free, now how can I get the license? Thankyou very much.

    Thanks so much! I was particularly missing the dwg import extension!

    There’s a lot you can do with the free version of sketchup (sketchup make). Most of the sketchup tutorials on this site deal with the free version. :)

    Thanks. I eventually can use sketchup freely. :). I’m a newbie & still learn how to use sketchup. It stops when the apps was asking for a license number. The free version helps much to continue my sketchup exercises
