Why do I see a warning on Windows when installing the app?
Information about code signing, Windows SmartScreen warnings, and antivirus alerts
Our application is currently not digitally signed, because obtaining official code signing certificates requires a significant budget and administrative steps. We plan to add this in the future.
When an app is unsigned, Windows cannot verify its publisher. As a result, it shows a warning to protect you from unknown or potentially harmful software.
This does not mean the app is dangerous — it simply means the system does not recognize the developer as a verified entity yet.
How to Open the App on Windows
When you run the installer, Windows might show a "Windows protected your PC" or "SmartScreen cannot be reached" warning.
- Click "More info" on the warning dialog.
- Then click "Run anyway".
If your antivirus flags the app, this is because unsigned applications can sometimes trigger false positives. You can usually allow or whitelist the app in your antivirus software.
Antivirus or Security Software
Some antivirus or security tools may show warnings or block unsigned apps automatically. If this happens:
- Check the alert details — it should mention that the app is unsigned, not that it contains malware.
- Manually approve or add the app to your trusted list in your antivirus settings.
Is it safe to use the app?
Yes. We build and distribute all versions directly from our official source code, without third-party installers or bundled software. You can always download the latest version from our official website, so you know exactly what you are getting.
We take security seriously, and official code signing is on our roadmap as soon as possible.
