Download BloomText for macOS

Overview

The BloomText desktop app for macOS gives you native notifications, quick-login with a 4-digit PIN, and fast access to your inbox without opening a browser.

System requirements

• Operating system: macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) or later
• Architecture: Intel or Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4)
• Internet: An active internet connection is required

Steps

1. Download the installer

Click the macOS badge above to download the .dmg installer.

2. Open the disk image

Open the downloaded .dmg file. A Finder window appears showing the BloomText app icon.

3. Move to Applications

Drag the BloomText icon into the Applications folder. If you see a prompt to replace an existing copy, confirm it.

4. Launch BloomText

Open Applications and double-click BloomText. If macOS shows a Gatekeeper dialog saying the app is from an identified developer, click Open to continue.

5. Sign in

Sign in with your BloomText email and password. If you do not have an account yet, create one at app.bloomtext.com/#/welcome.

6. Enable quick-login (optional)

Quick-login lets you sign in with a 4-digit PIN instead of your full password. Open Settings inside the desktop app, go to Security, and follow the prompts to set a PIN.

Edge cases / gotchas

• Gatekeeper dialog. macOS may show a warning the first time you open BloomText. Click Open to allow it. If the button is not visible, go to System Settings > Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
• Quick-login is desktop only. The PIN sign-in feature is not available in the web app or on mobile.
• Auto-updates. The desktop app checks for updates on launch. When a new version is available, it prompts you to install it.
• Eject the disk image. After dragging BloomText to Applications, you can eject the .dmg from Finder and delete the downloaded file.
