Install Omitly on macOS

Omitly for macOS installs like any other Mac application — download it, drag it in, and open it. No account, and nothing to configure before you start. There are two Mac builds, Apple silicon and Intel; pick the one matching your machine (Apple menu → About This Mac shows which chip you have). See System requirements for the details.

Download and install

1. Download the latest Omitly for macOS from the downloads page, choosing the build that matches your chip — Apple silicon or Intel.
2. Open the downloaded file and move Omitly into your Applications folder.
3. Open Omitly from Applications. macOS asks once whether you want to open an app downloaded from the internet — choose Open. Because Omitly is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, you won’t see a warning that the developer can’t be verified.

Both Mac builds are signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, and that signature is checked before the app will open — so a truncated or tampered download cannot install silently.

Before you buy a licence

A fresh install runs as a 14-day trial of redaction and OCR, so you can evaluate Omitly on real documents before licensing anything. Trial audit certificates are marked EVALUATION; the redaction itself is not affected. Digital signing, Bates numbering and folder redaction need a Pro licence, and redaction and OCR stop when the trial ends. Verifying a seal stays free, with or without a licence. Nothing is uploaded, licensed or not.

When you’re ready, your licence file arrives by email after purchase and is imported in the app under Omitly → More ▾ → About Omitly → Import licence file….

Updating

Omitly does not check for updates on its own. Choose More ▾ → About Omitly → Check for updates; it reminds you every 14 days. Updates are signed, and you choose when to install them.
