WHY BANDSTACK EXISTS
Tools I needed.
For my band.
I kept doing the same work for my band: making artwork, preparing shows and keeping track of everything around them. I started building tools to make those jobs easier. BandStack is the result, shared with yours.
I use these tools myself, and I want to keep improving them. A one-time purchase helps support that work, without turning BandStack into another subscription.
A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
A few useful details.
Can I buy or download BandStack now?
Yes. Buy BandStack through Polar. After purchase, you get your license key and the Windows installer download. If you need help, contact us.
Which operating system is supported?
BandStack is available for Windows. A Mac version is on the roadmap, without an announced release date.
Why might Windows show a warning when I install BandStack?
BandStack is a new app, and its installer is not digitally signed yet. Windows SmartScreen may show a “Windows protected your PC” or “unrecognized app” warning because the installer has not established a reputation.
If you downloaded the installer through the official BandStack purchase and trust its source, you can select “More info” and then “Run anyway”, if Windows offers that option. This applies to the unrecognized-app warning, not a malware detection. Do not disable your antivirus or other Windows security protections. If a threat is detected, the option is unavailable, or you have any doubts, stop and write to support@bandstack.app before continuing.
Is this a subscription?
No. The price is $30 USD as a one-time purchase of the Windows app.
How does the license work?
One payment gives you a lifetime license for up to 2 computers. You get a license key by email after your purchase and use it to activate the app. You can deactivate a computer to move your license to a new one. See the license terms.
Are updates included?
Yes. Updates to the BandStack Windows app are free and arrive automatically through the app. Separate future products or online services may have their own terms and prices.
Does BandStack need an internet connection?
You need internet to activate and periodically verify your license, receive updates and use online features such as maps and weather. After activation, you can work offline for up to 30 days before reconnecting for a license check. Your band’s workspace data stays on your computer.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. You can ask for a full refund within 14 days of your purchase. See our Refund Policy for instructions and conditions.
Where is my data stored?
Your band’s workspace data is stored on your computer, not uploaded to us. The desktop app does not require a BandStack user account. Online features send the specific requests described in our Privacy Policy.
Are Resources and the community available yet?
They are future website additions. Your purchase is for the desktop app and its current tools.
