Install on macOS

Five steps. macOS asks once before the first launch, because the app is not signed with an Apple certificate yet.

  1. Choose the file for your chip

    Open the Apple menu and choose About This Mac. Then download Apple Silicon (.dmg) or Intel (.dmg).

    Chip

    Apple M1 or later means Apple Silicon. A Mac that lists an Intel processor needs the Intel file.

  2. Drag Dabadoro into Applications

    Open the downloaded .dmg file. A window shows Dabadoro beside your Applications folder.

    Applications

    Drop Dabadoro on this folder, then eject the disk image.

  3. Open Dabadoro once, then choose Done

    Open Dabadoro from Applications. On macOS 15 and later, macOS says it could not verify the app.

    Done

    Closes the alert. Nothing is deleted.

  4. Choose Open Anyway in System Settings

    Open System Settings, then Privacy & Security, and scroll to Security. macOS remembers your choice, so you do this once.

    Open Anyway

    Shows for about an hour after you tried to open the app. Confirm with your password.

  5. Sign in through your browser

    Dabadoro needs a free account. It syncs your data, and after this first sign-in the app also works offline. How sync works.

Older macOS, updates and fixes

macOS 11 to 14

Updates

If macOS says the app is damaged

Downloading again does not help. Write to contact@dabadoro.com with your macOS version and chip, or see the unofficial last resort in the questions below.

Uninstall

Quit Dabadoro and drag it from Applications to the Trash. Your synced data stays in your account.
