Apparency – the app that opens apps.

macOS checks every app against a slew of security features: Gatekeeper, notarization, hardening, entitlements and more. But it doesn’t show you the result of these checks, preferring to keep these behind the scenes — either the app opens or it doesn’t, perhaps with an “app downloaded from the internet” dialog first.

Use Apparency for:

• Examining the App Structure
• Getting Information About a Component
  • General Information
  • Document Types and Other Info.plist Properties
  • Code Signature, Sandbox and Gatekeeper Info
