First time running this on Windows?

Windows may briefly show a SmartScreen notice the first time you run HairSalon-Setup-1.0.0.exe. That's normal. Microsoft displays it for any installer with a young reputation, even when properly signed.

To proceed: click More info, then Run anyway.

The installer is digitally signed by LaunchWizard, LLC, the legal entity behind AppKatz Software. You can verify the signature in the file's Properties → Digital Signatures tab before running it.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Salon Scheduler?

Salon Scheduler is a Windows desktop application built for hair salons, barbershops, and small beauty businesses. Salon Scheduler manages appointment booking, walk-in tracking, client contact records, service history, daily task management, and secure card payments via Stripe readers (chip, tap-to-pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, magstripe). Salon Scheduler stores all data locally on the user's Windows PC.

How much does Salon Scheduler cost?

Salon Scheduler costs $20 as a one-time purchase from AppKatz Software. The $20 covers a permanent license, unlimited bookings, unlimited client records, daily task management, Stripe payment integration, and installation on the user's Windows PC. Salon Scheduler charges no monthly subscription, no per-booking fee, no per-stylist fee, and no annual renewal.

Is there a free trial of Salon Scheduler?

Yes. Salon Scheduler offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. The trial activates unlimited appointments, walk-in tracking, client history, email reminders, daily task management, and Stripe payment processing. After 14 days, the user can purchase a $20 lifetime license or stop using Salon Scheduler with no charge.

How is Salon Scheduler different from Vagaro, Square Appointments, or Booksy?

Vagaro charges $30 to $90 per month per location. Square Appointments charges $29 to $99 per month plus payment fees. Booksy charges $29.99 to $99.99 per month per stylist. Salon Scheduler costs $20 once. Salon Scheduler runs locally on the user's Windows PC and handles bookings, walk-ins, and Stripe payments without monthly fees that scale with stylist count.

Is Salon Scheduler safe to install on Windows?

Yes. Salon Scheduler ships as a code-signed Windows installer verified by DigiCert. The DigiCert signature confirms that AppKatz Software (operated by LaunchWizard, LLC) published the installer and that the file has not been altered. Code-signed installers do not trigger Windows SmartScreen warnings. Salon Scheduler stores all data locally and processes payments through Stripe's PCI-compliant infrastructure.

What card payment methods does Salon Scheduler support?

Salon Scheduler supports the full range of Stripe-compatible card payment methods through Stripe-supported card readers: EMV chip cards, contactless tap-to-pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and traditional magnetic stripe. Payments process directly to the user's Stripe account with full PCI compliance handled by Stripe. Salon Scheduler tracks payment status alongside the booking record.

Can Salon Scheduler send booking reminders to clients?

Yes. Salon Scheduler sends email reminders to clients ahead of their booking time. Reminders reduce no-show rates by ensuring clients receive timely notification of upcoming appointments. The user configures the reminder timing (24 hours, 2 hours, 30 minutes) and Salon Scheduler delivers the reminder automatically using the salon's configured email account.

Will Salon Scheduler work on Windows 10 and Windows 11?

Yes. Salon Scheduler is built and tested for Windows 10 (version 1809 and later) and Windows 11. Salon Scheduler uses standard .NET runtimes that ship with both operating systems. The installer does not modify system files, does not require administrator privileges to run after installation, and does not change Windows Registry settings outside the application folder.
