macOS Sequoia Adds Weekly Permission Prompt for Screenshot and Screen Recording Apps ➝

Chance Miller, reporting for 9 to 5 Mac:

With macOS Sequoia this fall, using apps that need access to screen recording permissions will become a little bit more tedious. Apple is rolling out a change that will require you to give explicit permission on a weekly basis to these types of apps, and every time you reboot your Mac.

If you’ve been using the macOS Sequoia beta this summer in conjunction with a third-party screenshot or screen recording app, you’ve likely been prompted multiple times to continue allowing that app access to your screen. While many speculated this could be a bug, that’s not the case.

I use CleanShot X on my work machine regularly and I’m not looking forward to seeing this prompt every week.

I’ve been toying with Linux again on my 11-inch MacBook Air and I absolutely love how much control you have over the system. Maybe DHH is onto something with his switch away from macOS.
