Download Charmling
Always the current release
Bookmark this page. This address never changes, so it will still work after every update — unlike the download link in your receipt email, which points at one specific build and stops working once the next one ships. That was my mistake and this page is the fix.
Version latest · universal (Apple silicon & Intel) · notarized by Apple · macOS 13 or later.
You do not need a special link
There is one Charmling, and it is the same file for everybody. Downloading it again does not cost anything and does not need a receipt — your licence key is the thing that is yours, not the download. Reinstall as often as you like, on as many of your own Macs as you like.
Reinstalling
- Download the file above and open it.
- Drag Charmling into your Applications folder, replacing the old copy if one is there.
- Open it. If you have used it before, your charm, settings and licence are already back — they live in your Home folder, not inside the app, so deleting the app never took them.
Lost your licence key
The key was emailed to you when you bought Charmling, from Polar, my payment provider. Search your mail for Charmling or Polar and check your spam folder — it is a one-off email from an address you have never written to, which is exactly the kind that gets filed away.
If it is not there, write to support@charmling.app from the address you bought with and I will look it up and send it back. There is no form and no ticket number; it is one person reading the mail.
Still inside your free week
Then there is no key yet and nothing to recover — the first seven days run without one. Download, drag, open.
