Where exports go
When you export a design or a video, the Mac app saves it straight to your Downloads folder and shows a notice. Click the notice to see the file in Finder.
- File, Choose Export Folder picks another folder.
- File, Open Export Folder opens it.
- File, Show Last Export in Finder points at the file you saved last.
A second file with the same name is saved as "name (2)", so nothing is overwritten.
Links and sign-in windows
A link to another site, such as a published post or a help page, opens in your own browser. A sign-in window, such as Google's or a channel's, opens inside the app. Whenever a window is on another site, its title bar shows that site's address.
Microphone and camera
The first time you dictate a post, macOS asks whether Postfjord may use the microphone. Say yes to dictate. You can change it later in System Settings, Privacy and Security.
FAQ
Is the Mac app the same as the website?
Yes. Same account, same posts, same designs. A new feature in Postfjord is in the Mac app the next time you open it.
Can I use the Mac app and the browser at the same time?
Yes. They are two windows into the same account, and a change in one shows in the other.
Where did my export go?
To your Downloads folder, unless you picked another one under File, Choose Export Folder. File, Show Last Export in Finder takes you to the file.
How do I remove the Mac app?
Drag Postfjord from Applications to the Trash. Your account and everything in it stay as they are.
