## Install

### macOS

Since the app is not signed with an Apple Developer certificate, macOS will show a warning:

> **WARNING: macOS will show a warning**
>
> **"Maestro Scraper" was blocked to protect your Mac.**
> 
>   Apple could not verify "Maestro Scraper" is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy.

To install:

1. Open the `.dmg` file and drag the app to Applications
2. When the warning appears, click **Open Anyway** — or go to **System Settings → Privacy & Security**, scroll down, and click **Open Anyway** next to the Maestro Scraper message
3. You only need to do this once — subsequent launches will work normally

### Windows

Windows Defender SmartScreen may show a warning:

> **WARNING: Windows SmartScreen will show a warning**
>
> **Windows protected your PC**
> 
>   Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting.

2. When the SmartScreen warning appears, click **More info**
3. Click **Run anyway**
4. Follow the installer prompts to complete the installation
