Why macOS will warn you
It won't show as a
“trusted” Apple app.
When you open GlassDrive the first time, macOS will say it can't verify the developer. That's because we don't pay for Apple's Developer Programme. It costs £79 a year, and all we'd get for it is a seal of approval.
To keep our prices as low as possible, we put that money into building the app instead. We'll join as soon as GlassDrive earns enough, and the warning will disappear.
