Notarized by Apple: check it yourself
Whizra is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple. One Terminal line shows Apple’s verdict on your copy.
Whizra is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple. Before an app can be notarized, Apple scans it for malware and checks how it is signed. That's why macOS opens Whizra with no "unidentified developer" warning.
Notarizing is a security check by Apple, not an Apple review or endorsement of the app.
You don't have to take our word for it. Check the copy you downloaded:
- Download Whizra and drag it into Applications.
- Open Terminal (Applications → Utilities → Terminal).
- Paste this line and press Return:
spctl -a -vv /Applications/Whizra.app - macOS answers with Apple's verdict. Look for accepted and source=Notarized Developer ID, and the team ID Q32764ZPJY at the end of the
origin=line.
If the answer says rejected, or the team ID is different, the copy didn't come from us: delete it and download it again from whizra.com.
- To see the signature itself:
codesign -dv --verbose=2 /Applications/Whizra.appshows the same team ID next toTeamIdentifier=. - Apple explains how notarized apps open: Safely open apps on your Mac.
