+#### macOS Gatekeeper approval for unsigned builds
+
+Current preview builds may not be notarized by a certified Apple Developer account. If macOS
+blocks `Rsnap.app` after you unzip a downloaded build, use the quarantine override only for a
+bundle you built yourself or downloaded from this repository's GitHub Releases page.
+
+Move the app to `/Applications`, then run:
+
+```sh
+xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Rsnap.app
+```
+
+If Terminal reports a permission error, grant Terminal Full Disk Access in `System Settings` ->
+`Privacy & Security` -> `Full Disk Access`, then rerun the command. If you keep the app in a
+different location, replace `/Applications/Rsnap.app` with that bundle path.
+
+After Gatekeeper allows the app to open, continue with Screen Recording permission below.
+
 ### macOS permissions
 
 Rsnap currently relies on **Screen Recording** permission to capture other apps/windows.
