Will SEEVN 2 have Mac builds?

The description says that it is available on Mac, and I see a version 1.0 mac download, but nothing for 2.x. Will it no longer be available for mac going forward?

I ask because in part for personal reasons, but I'm particularly interested in using it for teaching, and there cross-platform availability is crucial, or something cannot be used -- especially for remote instruction.

Hi!

That's very interesting! If you could share more on how you use SEEVN for teaching, or any feature that could help you please let with us know.

Unfortunately our MacBook passed away and that's the reason we haven't updated it. Next month we'll have a new Mac to compile SEEVN 2, please check again by then.

Thanks for your feedback, you can also contact us at seevn@wcu.co

Cheers!

Good news, the latest version for MacOS is now available.

On my macbook pro Big Sur v11.5.2 , it won't let me open it.

You are not authorized to open the "SEEVN 2 Pro.app" application.

neither sudo upx -d /Applications/...

nor "SUDO xattr -d com.apple.quarantine..."

nor "GateKeeper Helper v1.2.2"

I'm dealing with the same problem, did you have any solution for this that ended up working?

I am very late to the discussion on the issue of SEENV2 not opening on Mac. The developer forgot to mark the actual app file as "executable". 
To fix this, locate your SEEVN 2 Pro.app in your Finder (probably /Applications). Right click on the app file and click "Show Package Contents". 
- Go into the "Contents" folder, then go into the "MacOS" folder.
- Open the Terminal app (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app).
- In Terminal, we have to make the "SEEVN_v2_7_MacOS" file executable.
- To do this, type (no quotes!) "chmod 755 " notice the space there, then type SEE (app caps) and press the Tab key to autocomplete the file name. Press Enter.
- The "SEEVN_v2_7_MacOS" file should change from a white document icon to a black window icon with "exec" in green text.
- Now start SEEVN 2 Pro as normal.
- You may get a warning about the developer being unknown, click Cancel.
- Then open System Preferences / Settings, go to the Security tab.
- You should see a warning about an unknown developer app. Click "Open Anyway".
- Confirm any "are you sure?" type warnings, and the app should open for you now going forward.
