Installing Flock Agent

Install Flock Agent on macOS

The simplest way to install Flock Agent, and to ensure you get automatic updates, is to use Homebrew. First install Homebrew if you don't already have it. Then open the Terminal app and run:

# Add the First Look Media tap
brew tap firstlookmedia/homebrew-firstlookmedia

# Install Flock Agent
brew cask install flock-agent

If you prefer to install Flock Agent without Homebrew, download and install the latest version from the GitHub releases.

Then launch Flock from /Applications.
