Install

  1. Step 1Open the DMGDouble-click the file you just downloaded. A window opens with the app and a shortcut to Applications.
  2. Step 2Drag to ApplicationsDrop ScreenForge on the Applications folder, eject the disk image, launch it from Applications or Spotlight.
  3. Step 3Grant two permissionsOn first launch macOS asks for Screen Recording and Input Monitoring. Both live in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Recording needs the first; automatic zooms, which follow your clicks and typing, need the second.

The app runs without a license. Recording, editing and your first three exports are free; after that, exporting needs a key from the pricing page.

Build from source

ScreenForge is Apache-2.0. With a Rust toolchain and the Xcode command line tools installed:

$ git clone https://github.com/mehfuzh/screenforge && cargo build --release -p studio

The binary lands in target/release/screenforge; scripts/bundle.sh wraps it in an .app. The export gate is ordinary Apache-2.0 code: a source build can remove it. The license exists to fund the signed, notarized download, the CI that produces it and ongoing maintenance.

Older versions

Every build, with its notes and checksums, is on GitHub Releases. The download button above always points at the newest one.
