Installing KLog on a macOS system is easy.

  1. Download the macOS disk image (.dmg) from Download from GitHub or the Google Drive folder, matching your Mac (Apple Silicon / Intel, if separate builds are offered).
  2. Open the downloaded .dmg file.
  3. Click and drag the KLog icon into the Applications folder shortcut shown in the window.

  1. Eject the KLog disk image, then launch KLog from Applications (or Launchpad / Spotlight).

Gatekeeper warning

Because KLog is distributed outside of the Mac App Store, the first time you open it macOS Gatekeeper may warn that the app is from an "unidentified developer" or was downloaded from the internet. If this happens, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the message about KLog being blocked, and click Open Anyway, then confirm in the dialog that appears.

First launch

The First Run / Setup Wizard will guide you through the initial configuration the first time KLog starts.

Building from source

If you prefer to build KLog yourself instead of using the pre-built .dmg, see Development Notes and Building on macOS.
