dotLottie Converter & Player (Windows/Mac)Installation

Installing the App

System Requirements

  • Windows 10 or later, or macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later
  • An internet connection for installation, license activation, and periodic license checks (the app works offline the rest of the time)

Windows

  1. Download the installer (dotLottie Converter & Player Setup.exe) from Your Account page.
  2. Double-click the downloaded .exe file to run it.
  3. You will likely see a blue "Windows protected your PC" screen. This is normal — it appears for all new apps that aren’t yet widely recognized by Windows, not because anything is wrong. To continue:
    • Click More info
    • Click Run anyway
  4. Follow the installer prompts. The app will launch automatically when installation finishes.

Mac

  • Download the disk image (dotLottie Converter & Player.dmg) from your account page.
  • Open the .dmg file and drag the app into your Applications folder.
  • The first time you open the app, macOS will likely block it with a message like "dotLottie Converter & Player can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software." This is expected for apps distributed outside the Mac App Store. To open it:
    • Right-click (or Control-click) the app in Applications
    • Choose Open from the menu
    • Click Open again in the confirmation dialog

You only need to do this once — after the first successful open, the app launches normally like any other app.
