Buzz FAQ

Is Buzz free?

Yes. It runs on your own machine, so there is no usage-based cost either.

Do I need to install anything or write code to use Buzz?

You install it like a normal desktop app. No command line involved.

Does Buzz work on a phone?

No. It needs a computer.

Can Buzz run offline?

Yes. Everything happens on your own machine, so your data is never sent to an outside server. That makes it usable for material you cannot share externally.

Can I use Buzz commercially?

The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
