FAQ

Question: How do I add even more users to use the service?
Answer: Each version of WEDOS Disk has a maximum number of users that cannot be increased. You can connect multiple devices through one user account, but we cannot guarantee that when multiple devices are connected simultaneously from one account, the transfer will work correctly.
