Your OS will warn you before opening it — that's expected. Here's exactly what to click.
Why the warning shows up: Cheaper's desktop app isn't code-signed yet. Signing requires an Apple Developer account ($99/yr) and a Windows code-signing certificate, both of which are still being set up. This is a temporary step — once signed builds ship, these warnings and the extra clicks below go away entirely.
The source is open and auditable if you'd rather check it yourself first: github.com/ownasquare/cheaper-desktop.
Skip the desktop app entirely and run Cheaper straight from your terminal.
npx cheaper
Or install it globally:
npm install -g cheaper
Launching Cheaper starts the local gateway in the background and opens your live savings dashboard automatically — nothing else to configure to see it running.
