Pricing and licensing FAQ

The price the checkout shows is the price. It is authoritative for your region, currency, taxes, and eligibility. Depending on where you are and how you are registered for tax, applicable tax may already be included in the figure you see or added at checkout. The US figures on this page are quoted before any applicable sales tax, and the checkout total is always authoritative.

What is included in Free?

Free browses the complete catalog and runs the curated single-peripheral presets, together with the Treadmill composed-device demo. It includes the real-radio and virtual destinations where the platform supports them, the inspector, the simulation dashboard, timing readouts, and basic diagnostics. The free Treadmill is the whole device: no session limit, no disabled controls, no virtual-only restriction, and no reduced behavior.

Free also includes Explore: scanning for nearby Bluetooth LE devices, connecting to them, and reading, writing and subscribing, through this device’s radio or a RemoteBLE agent on your network, with traces and recorded action replay. Nothing in Explore needs Pro.

Scripts and project files remain available to create, edit, import locally, and export. Free users always keep their own files.

Pro is required to run the rest of the composed-device catalog, execute a user-authored script or an attached JavaScript hook — including a hook on the Treadmill — use the bundled profile library, import from a URL, grant advanced script capabilities, or use the advanced real-time shaping and fault-injection tools.

The paid boundary is executing advanced behavior, not owning your work. Free users can create and edit scripts; running custom behavior is what needs Pro.

Why is macOS Pro a one-time purchase?

The macOS edition is distributed directly. That makes it practical to sell a defined major-version family: a Warsha BLE Studio 1.x license permanently unlocks Pro in every eligible 1.x release, while a future 2.x release may be a separate purchase.

What does macOS Pro cost and include?

The US launch price is $29.99 as a one-time purchase, before any applicable sales tax. The checkout shows the authoritative regional price, tax treatment, and total before payment. The license is for one user, permanently unlocks Pro in eligible 1.x releases, and permits two concurrent Mac activations — enough for a desktop and a laptop. A future major-version family such as 2.x may require a separate purchase. License keys may not be shared with other users.

$29.99 is the launch price, with no scheduled end date or automatic increase. No higher “regular price” is displayed beside it. If the price changes later, that applies to new purchases only and never alters a license you already own.

How does the macOS trial work?

The macOS trial provides 14 active-use days. It starts when the user chooses to start the trial, and a day is consumed only when a Pro run is actually admitted. Repeated Pro runs on the same local day do not consume another day. Trial expiry applies to the next Pro run and never interrupts an active BLE session.

Does the macOS license include every future version?

No. It is perpetual for the purchased major-version family, not a promise of every future major release. A 1.x license continues to unlock eligible 1.x builds; a future 2.x release may be sold separately.

Does a purchase on another platform transfer?

No. Each platform’s Pro is sold and verified by a different provider, so a purchase on one platform does not unlock Pro on another.

Can I always recover my scripts?

Yes. Authoring and file ownership are not the paid boundary. A trial expiry, cancellation, or license problem may stop a new Pro run, but scripts remain editable and exportable.
