Downstep for Mac

A Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later) and macOS 11 or later. Intel Macs are not supported for now.

How to install

  1. 1
    Open the .dmg

    and drag Downstep into Applications.

  2. 2
    Open Downstep

    The first time, macOS blocks it because it doesn't come from the App Store. Close the message.

  3. 3
    Go to System Settings, Privacy and Security

    Scroll down and click “Open Anyway” next to Downstep. macOS asks for your password or Touch ID.

  4. 4
    That's it

    From now on it opens normally. When a new version comes out, Downstep offers it and updates itself: you don't need to repeat these steps.

If you prefer the Terminal

After step 1, this command removes the block:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Downstep.app
Downstep-mac.dmg

Apple silicon, macOS 11 or later
