Hello Sophie, It looks like the app is not working on mac os big sur.

This is the error I got when I try to start the app (I downloaded the zip file multiple times from multiple browser). Here the error:

I was able to make it works running this command

xattr -cr /Applications/SophiesDice.ap

PS: the app is really cool!

Yeah sorry about that, I am hoping to at some point make the app work better on macOS, but apple don't make it easy (actually they deliberately make it difficult).

I'll need to make some significant changes first though, so I'm not sure when it will work without the inconvenience, sorry.

Hi Sophie, thanks for the answer!

I was able to make it work with the console command above.

Hopefully it will be useful for someone else with the same issue :)

Unfortunatelly it no longer works for me.

I’d also want to get it running :c

Sorry! If the solution above doesn't help there isn't anything I can do right now. I'll look into making a signed version but I'm pretty busy with  other things right now and I haven't done it before so it might take quite a while!

The xattr command worked for me, but I suspect people are copy/pasting it, and it’s missing the p at the end.

xattr -cr /Applications/SophiesDice.app

This command worked for me on Sequoia 15.1. Thanks Abbie!
Thanks for the update, Sophie!
