1-bit now has a place of its own on the web: 1-bit.app.
When I launched it back in April, the whole thing lived in a few pages tucked under ars.md/1-bit/. That was fine for a launch — one app, a couple of pages, no reason to overthink it. But it kept growing. A desktop bridge. Support docs and an FAQ. A privacy policy. A changelog that needed somewhere to live. At some point a product sharing a roof with my personal blog started to feel less like a feature and more like clutter.
So I gave it its own address.
What’s at 1-bit.app
Everything about the app, now under one roof:
- The app — what it is, what it plays, and the App Store link.
- The bridge — the little desktop companion that serves your library to the app.
- Support — setup, settings, and the FAQ.
- Changelog — every release, in one place.
- Privacy — the short version: it doesn’t phone home.
What stays here
The writing. ars.md is where I think out loud, and a lot of that thinking is about 1-bit — so the per-release notes and the how-tos stay right here on the blog:
Update, September 2026: they have since moved here, to 1-bit.app/blog — the personal site keeps only the essays. The why is in Pruning the garden.
Those are me figuring things out in public, not product copy. They belong with the blog, not the storefront — and new release posts will keep landing here too.
Nothing breaks
Every old ars.md/1-bit/… link now 301-redirects to its new home on 1-bit.app. Bookmarks, search results, links from these very posts — they all land in the right place. You don’t have to do anything.
The app itself hasn’t changed: same bit-exact audio path, same promise that what goes in comes out untouched. It just has a better address now.
