Download FlowMaster Debate

Installing

Three steps, about a minute.

Download the disk image, put FlowMaster in Applications, then open it from there. The build is notarized by Apple, so macOS treats it like any other trusted Mac app.

1

Open the download

Double-click FlowMaster-2.0.dmg in Downloads. A small window opens with the FlowMaster app.

2

Drag to Applications

Drag the app icon onto the Applications folder shortcut. Then eject the disk image from Finder’s sidebar.

3

Open from Applications

Launch FlowMaster from Applications or Launchpad — not from the Downloads window or the DMG.

Always open it from Applications.

After the drag-and-drop install, use the copy in your Applications folder. That is the real app macOS should run every time.

Finder → Applications — double-click FlowMaster there.

Launchpad — search “FlowMaster” and open it from the grid.

Skip the download copy — once it is in Applications, you can delete the DMG.

What happens next. FlowMaster asks you to create a free account, then emails you an 8-digit code to confirm your address. Enter the code and you are in. The code arrives in under a minute — if it does not, check your spam folder or contact support and we will confirm your account by hand.

Coming this August

FlowMaster for Windows

A native Windows version is in final testing and ships this August — the same flows, the same account, and the same live collaboration, so a Windows debater and a Mac debater can flow the same round together.

Optional

File check for school Macs.

Most people can skip this. If you manage lab machines — or just want to confirm the download was not altered — compare the SHA-256 of the DMG to the published value.
