Checked, and yes it does, Kate
Kate, then that is a really solid benefit for current Magix Customers to switch to the Xara Cloud+ / Xara Designer Pro + subscription model.

The three major benefits:
  1. No Magix involvement
  2. More frequent desktop updates
  3. Comparable annual costs

For most hobbyists, the added bonus of Cloud+ does not appear obvious.
Even if you never swing over, I commend getting a free Cloud account as what appears in the Xara Cloud environment is usually implemented into XPro+ as well.
You also get to view and access more content, especially those useful for those who are out of Magix Update Service cover.

If you progress to paying clients then a full Xara Cloud+/Pro+ subscription has a very quick Return of Investment (ROI).
