How to install Ledge on a Mac

  1. Get OpenDMG. It is a free app store for open source Mac apps. Download OpenDMG.
  2. Search for Ledge and press Get. OpenDMG downloads version 1.3.1 from egemertbalcik's own GitHub release.
  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.

Updates to Ledge show up in OpenDMG and install with one button. No account is needed.

Prefer to do it by hand? The developer's file is on GitHub: Ledge.dmg (7.0 MB).

What is new in Ledge 1.3.1

Ledge now asks before installing an update. It still checks by itself.

- **Your call.** When an update is out, a window offers Install Update, Skip This Version and Remind Me Later. This replaces the silent installs in 1.3.0.
- **Checks run on their own.** There's no setting to manage and no box to tick.
- **Coming from 1.3.0.** This update installs on its own when Ledge quits, because 1.3.0 decides how it arrives. Updates after it ask first.
