Before you start

  • The app requires macOS 26 or later.
  • Automatic lid effects need a MacBook with a readable lid-angle sensor. Model support varies.
  • Manual preview remains available without a sensor, subject to built-in display safety checks.
  • Frost needs Screen Recording permission. Other lid effects do not.
  • Wallpapers can run on external displays.

Install the app

  1. Download the DMG from the verified release link.
  2. Open it and drag UnfoldMyMac into Applications.
  3. Launch UnfoldMyMac and choose an effect.
  4. Try Preview, then turn on lid effects when you’re ready.

The planned release format is a Developer ID-signed, Apple-notarized DMG. Release signing is not claimed until it has been verified.

Build from source

Install Xcode 26 or later with Swift 6.2+, then select Xcode’s command-line tools in Settings → Locations.

git clone https://github.com/satyajiit/UnfoldMyMac.git
cd UnfoldMyMac/MacDuo
./script/build_and_run.sh

The script builds and opens MacDuo/dist/UnfoldMyMac.app. It uses an available Apple Development identity or falls back to ad-hoc signing. You can copy the built app to Applications.

To check the lid hardware, run ./script/build_and_run.sh --probe from the same directory.
