First-time open on macOS: This app isn't yet notarised by Apple, so macOS asks for confirmation the first time you open it.

1. Open the .dmg and drag the app into your Applications folder.

2. Open it once: System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway. (On older macOS you can instead right-click the app and choose Open.)

If macOS says the app is “damaged”, open Terminal and run:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Fretwell Audio Download Manager.app"
