Q&A

1. Where can I reopen the main panel after closing it?

Click the Dock tile or Menubar icon of QuickRecorder to reopen the main panel at any time.

2. Why does QuickRecorder not a sandbox app?

QuickRecorder has no plans to be uploaded to the App Store, so it does not need to be designed as a sandbox app.
