Changes

  • Change the bundle ID to com.giladpeleg.macshot.
  • Use the shared Gilad Peleg Local Signing identity for local builds and this release.
  • Import the existing signing backup on other build Macs instead of creating another key.
  • Require explicit ad-hoc signing instead of silently falling back when the shared identity is missing.

Install

Requires macOS 26 or later on Apple silicon.

  1. Download macshot-5.2.0-arm64.zip below. Open it and move macshot to Applications.
  2. Open macshot. macOS blocks the first start, because the app is not notarized. Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
  3. Grant Screen Recording (in System Settings: Screen & System Audio Recording). Scroll capture's auto-scroll and element snapping also ask for Accessibility (on macOS 27: Device Control and Data Access).

To update, quit macshot and replace the app. If macOS blocks the new version, do step 2 again. macshot checks GitHub once a day and tells you when a new release is out. To turn this off, go to Settings → About.

This release uses the bundle ID com.giladpeleg.macshot and the shared Gilad Peleg Local Signing identity used by local builds. Compared with the former com.pgilad.macshot builds, it has a separate sandbox for history and settings and needs new Screen Recording and Accessibility grants. Your previous data remains in the old container; it is not migrated automatically.
