Almost there!

GhostNote isn't code-signed yet, so macOS may show a warning. Here's how to get past it:

  1. Open the downloaded .dmg and drag GhostNote into Applications.
  2. On first launch, macOS may say "GhostNote can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software."
  3. Open Terminal and run this command to allow it:
xattr -cr /Applications/GhostNote.app

Then open GhostNote again. It will launch normally from now on.
