Flock v0.1.1 — install fixes

Two fixes since v0.1.0:

  • Real app icon. v0.1.0 accidentally shipped with the Tauri scaffold's default icon instead of the pin-flock icon. Fixed.
  • No more "damaged" error on macOS. v0.1.0 unsigned builds triggered macOS's strict "Flock is damaged and can't be opened — you should move it to the Trash" dialog. v0.1.1 is ad-hoc signed, so you'll only see the standard "unidentified developer" prompt that the right-click → Open path below handles.

Install

macOS — Apple Silicon (most modern Macs, ~2020+)

  1. Download Flock_0.1.1_aarch64.dmg below.
  2. Open the .dmg and drag Flock to your Applications folder.
  3. Open Applications, right-click Flock → Open → Open on the dialog.

macOS — Intel

Same steps as above, but download Flock_0.1.1_x64.dmg.

Windows

  1. Download Flock_0.1.1_x64-setup.exe (or the .msi).
  2. Run it. If Windows SmartScreen shows a warning, click More info → Run anyway.

How to use

  1. Click Connect with Foursquare — your browser will open to Foursquare's login.
  2. Sign in to your Foursquare account and approve Flock.
  3. Wait for your check-ins to sync. (A few seconds for new accounts, a couple of minutes for years of history.)
  4. Explore — map, timeline, filters, and analytics.

Your data stays cached on your machine. Flock talks directly to Foursquare; nothing is routed through a third-party server.

Already installed v0.1.0?

You can upgrade by downloading v0.1.1, dragging it to /Applications, and overwriting the old copy. Your check-ins and preferences will be reused (they live in ~/Library/Application Support/io.ryanmcdowell.flock/).

Known limitations in v0.1.1

  • No auto-updater yet — to upgrade in the future, download the new release and replace the app.
  • Designed for desktop (1280×800+); narrower window sizes work but aren't polished.
  • Builds are ad-hoc signed but not Apple-notarized. The right-click → Open path is a one-time step per install.
