Install ScreenPal for macOS

The ScreenPal desktop app includes the Screen Recorder, Video Editor, Screenshot and Image Editor tools.  Complete the steps below to install the app for macOS.

1. Go to screenpal.com. In the upper right corner, log into your existing account or click the Sign Up button to create a new account.
NotesNote: If you are a Team user with a Team Access page, navigate to that access URL instead.

2. Click Create and then select the desired action (e.g. Capture Screenshot, Record Screen / Cam, etc.):
    

3. Follow the prompts to download the app.  You will be asked to specify which system your Mac is currently using: Intel or M-Series.

To determine which system your Mac is using, click the Apple menu  in the top left corner of your Mac menu bar and select About This Mac from the menu. Note the Processor information in this window:




NotesNote: If you choose the M-series installer on an Intel mac, you will see a message that ScreenPal could not be installed.  If you choose the Intel installer on an M-Series mac, it will install, but will not use the native optimized code. This may result in a slower app experience.

4. Once the app is downloaded, the Install ScreenPal dialog is displayed. Click Continue.


5. Under Destination Select, select the location on your Mac where you want to install the ScreenPal app, and then click Continue.

6. To perform a standard installation, click Install on the Installation Type screen.

A ScreenPal splash screen is displayed as the app installs:


7. If you were logged into your ScreenPal account when you began the installation, you will be prompted to enter your ScreenPal password. After you enter it, the installation completes.  If you are simply upgrading the ScreenPal application, the Project Manager opens.
