The goal is to provide a great, free tool for anyone who can afford (or steal) a Mac.īeat exists to make people happier and more free to express themselves, not to make fuckloads of money for shareholders while ignoring human rights and using basically slave labour in global south. Why is it free? Is there a catch?īeat is originally based on GPL licensed code, and the creator's background is in non-compromising DIY underground culture. Instead, consider sending some loose change to help me keep the lights on. Worst bugs are fixed as soon as possible, and the app is still free, now and forever. Please don't send death threats or mean e-mails. Read the instructions carefully to make it easier to track down the issue - and to fix it. Actually, do it if you can! Apple is a greedy, hugely profitable company abusing sweatshop workers and disregarding their environmental responsibility.

If you want to write your own, head over to the Beat Plugin Wiki. You can find all official plugins in Plugin Library. Please download the latest version from App Store.īut don't worry - App Store-free distribution will be back one day! How do plugins work? Can I make my own? The ad hoc distribution (downloaded from the web) was discontinued in early 2021.

Why did my old version of Beat stop working?
