Used the online version a lot before, and I'm tempted to grab the desktop app just to show support. Still unsure if I would use it over the web equivalent.

There are some things still unclear after reading the FAQ page.

Does the app require an install and admin permissions, or does it come as a zipped executable?

Buying the app is described as "pay once", but is it pay once for this version? Will the buyer get updates for no additional cost? (EDIT: I missed the fine print in the EULA - the updates are free for 12 months).

Also - keyboard shortcuts on the FAQ page are all using Ctrl, except for "F11 or Cmd Shift F". Likely an omission.

Hi, Calmly Writer uses an installer, it is not a zip file. By paying once you will receive all updates. The EULA says for 12 months, but my intention is to make it indefinite. I have yet to update the FAQs to indicate the MAC shortcuts.
