How to Install Eve Scribe on Mac

Last updated: September 30, 2026

Overview

This article explains how to install and set up Eve Scribe on a Mac. Because Eve Scribe is in Alpha, the app isn't signed yet, so macOS will block it the first time — these steps include the temporary workaround. A signed app is planned for the beta release.

Prerequisites

  • The Eve Scribe installer for Mac (Eve provides the download link).

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Install the app — Open the DMG file, drag the Eve Scribe icon into your Applications folder, then close the DMG window.

  2. Open Eve Scribe — Launch Eve Scribe from your Applications folder. macOS will warn that it “can't be opened because it can't check for malicious software” — click OK.

  3. Allow the app in Security settings — Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the bottom to the message that Eve Scribe was blocked, click Open Anyway, and confirm with Open.

  4. Log in — Log in with your credentials on the Eve Scribe login page.

  5. Grant screen & audio recording permission — Start a call; when prompted, click Open System Settings, find Eve Scribe under Screen & System Audio Recording, toggle it on, then click Quit & Reopen.
