Getting Started

Installing ScreenSorts on macOS is quick. Since we are a new developer, you might need to approve the app the first time you run it.

1. Download the Installer

If you haven't already, download the latest version for macOS (Apple Silicon recommended).

2. Drag to Applications

Open the downloaded .dmg file and drag the ScreenSorts icon into the Applications folder.

/Applications/ScreenSorts.app

3. Security Check

Apple is strict with new developers. Until we are on the App Store, you might see a scary-looking warning. This is normal for direct downloads.

🍎Official Mac App Store release coming very soon!

1Verify Integrity

When you open the app, you might see a warning: "can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software".

Click Done.
