TI-84 SmartView CE Emulator Software (TI-84EMU-SNGL1YR-ESW)

Frequently Asked Questions

A: Yes. In March of 2022, TI discontinued selling perpetual licenses for all TI software.

A: Yes, but they do that by converting your perpetual license to a multi-year subscription license. For more information, see Are updates to the TI-SmartView software free?

A: TI has created the TI-84 Plus CE Online calculator for use on Chromebooks. See TI-84 Plus CE Online Calculator (TI-84OLC-SNGL1YR-ESW).

Note: The online calculator has most of the functionality found in the TI-SmartView computer software. However, the online calculator cannot collect sensor data, cannot be use with the TI-Innovator hub, and does not support Python programming.

A: The software for Single-User and Multi-User licenses is the same. The difference is in how they are sold and who sets up the accounts required to use the software.

  • Typically bought by the end user.
  • Can purchase in quantities less than 5.
  • End user activates the account
  • Best value when you are buying 1 or 2 licenses.

Multi-User

  • Must purchase 5 or more licenses.
  • License administrator manages accounts

  • 2- and 3-Year licenses available.
  • Accounts can be reassigned as needed.
