Permission may need to be granted to the exact installed app version, and macOS can require the app to restart before the change takes effect.

01

Check Accessibility first

The most common first issue is missing or stale macOS Accessibility permission, which a recorder needs to capture or replay mouse and keyboard input.

02

Restart and run a tiny test

Open Privacy & Security, review Accessibility access, enable the recorder, restart it, and test a two-action recording. MacroLoop is designed to guide this setup and run locally once permission is active.

03

Treat input permission seriously

Grant Accessibility only to software you trust and downloaded from a legitimate source. Remove access from apps you no longer use.

THE TAKEAWAY

Verify Accessibility access, restart the app, and test the smallest possible recording.

MacroLoop features and third-party app interfaces can change. Confirm the current App Store listing and test a short recording before relying on any workflow.
