Nagware

As nagware (of English. Nos ' nag ') or Zeterware referred to shareware, which is characterized in that it (often after the period set test phase) comes up with penetrating purchase Notes. Unlike other shareware types nagware is usually fully usable without restrictions to their functional scope. However, the user should be brought by frequent and annoying warning messages to buy the (full) product, then these messages no longer appear in the. So the goal is, as with virtually any shareware version, to allow the user an insight into the software, but at the same time motivate them to buy the product. The shareware instructions typically appear

• When the program starts, possibly connected with a waiting time of several seconds,
• When the program ends,
• During use of the program itself, such as through pop -up windows.
