How to open Rouser

Follow these steps to safely install and verify your download.

1. Gatekeeper Installation

Step 1: Install the app

Open the downloaded .dmg and drag Rouser to your Applications folder.

Step 2: Right-click to Open

macOS requires a manual override for independent apps. Right-click (or Control-click) Rouser and select Open.

Step 3: Confirm

Click Open in the macOS dialog. You only need to do this the very first time.


2. Verify Download Integrity (Advanced)

To ensure your download matches our official release, verify the SHA-256 checksum via Terminal.

# 1. Generate the checksum for your downloaded file
shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/Rouser-1.0.0.dmg
# 2. Compare it against our published checksum
cat ~/Downloads/Rouser-1.0.0.dmg.sha256
