How many devices on Dropbox Simple (500gb plan)?

I notice Dropbox now has a Simple Plan in selected countries which gives 500gb storage for £5.99 per month but needs to be paid via a Google Play or Apple subscription, but I cannot find out anywhere how many devices it can be installed on? Can anyone that has this plan let me know if there is a device limit and if so what the limit is?

    Hey cdub74 - I just wanted to mention that the Dropbox Simple plan has a 3 device limit, just like the Dropbox Basic plan. 

    I hope this clarifies matters and please let me know if you have anything else to ask.

    Glad I could help cdub74 - let me know if you come up with any other questions in the future.

    Also, thank you so much for your kind words Mark - I've already flagged the relevant help center articles with the team, but it might take some time before the articles get updated.

    Cheers!

    Again though there is no mention of the simple plan in this document, some part of the website states that the simple plan is like the basic plan, so I am not sure if Simple has the basic plan device limits. 

    If anyone reading this has the simple plan with 500gb can you let me know if there are device limits on this plan.

    My guess here is that there is no limit, as the document talking about limits states that it's only Basic, which is restricted.
