How to install Brink on a Mac

  3. Open it. The download is checked against its SHA-256 fingerprint and its signature is checked on your Mac before it lands in Applications.

### Fixed
- Apple Notes: titles and headings keep their style when you edit a note in Brink. Before, the first line of a note turned into plain bold text after the first save.
- Apple Notes: "&", "<", ">" and quotes show up correctly instead of as "&amp" or "&lt".
- Apple Notes: editing a note no longer reports "Changed in Notes while you were editing" on every second save.
- Apple Notes: monospaced text keeps its style, and a numbered list right after a bulleted list stays numbered.
- Apple Notes: links added by quick capture are written as plain addresses, so the note stays editable in Brink instead of turning read-only.
- Apple Notes: search and pinned notes no longer show notes from Recently Deleted, in any language of macOS.
- Apple Notes: folders with the same name in different accounts now show which account they belong to, and "Use Notes' version" no longer leaves an empty editor if a refresh is running.
- Apple Notes: a slow answer from Notes now says so instead of showing a raw error.
