I hadn't seen the term 'standalone app.' being used as such. I know the term 'perpetual licensing' software but what you say makes sense after looking up the meaning of the term:
Standalone software may refer to:
- Computer software that can work offline, i.e. does not necessarily require network connection to function
- Software that is not a part of some bundled software
- A program that is run as a separate computer process, not an add-on of an existing process
- Standalone program, a program that does not require operating system's services to run
- A portable application, which can be run without the need for installation procedure
- Stand-alone expansion pack, expansion packs that do not require the original game
