Latest version downloads, but won't open

I downloaded the latest version, but when BBT opens I get this message.

I had to open Index of /releases to go through versions until BTT opens.
Version 4.649 was successful. After installing, it re-opens.
I'm running: macOS Big Sur, Version 11.7.10

mhm newer versions have been built with a newer Xcode version. Maybe something is not compatible with old macOS versions. I’ll have a look soon!
For now I have disabled the auto update for macOS 11

Thanks for replying. I'll see what you have to say, after you look into it. But, the BTT version I'm running works great. So, if I have to keep that version until I get a new Mac that's fine. I appreciate the response.

I get the message too after installing latest version on MacOS 10.15.7

I noticed BTTRestart or something to that effect was listed in Activity Monitor even though nothing was restarting or launching, after a while I tried restarting the computer but same error message still.

I think I found a bug in the new Xcode 16 version that caused it to fail on macOS 10.15 and 11 (for developers who stumble upon this: Xcode for some reason linked QuicklookUI.framework which is not available on these older macOS versions)

It should be solved now in 4.661, but you will need to redownload via folivora.ai - Great Tools for your Mac!

Confirming it's fixed thanks!

Awesome. I re-installed 4.661, and now it opens on macOS 11.7.10.
I want to give you a BIG THANK YOU!

I have the same issue with my app; how did you fix it with Xcode 16? Or did you use Xcode 15? Thanks!

Xcode 16: Manually add QuicklookUI to the dependencies even if you don't actively use it. Previously it was enough to add QuickLook.framework, but now QuickLookUI needs to be linked explicitly

@jero, I think you're misunderstanding Andreas' message. As a user, you don't need to use Xcode to fix this. Here's what you need to do:

  1. Uninstall BetterTouchTool
  2. Download BetterTouchTool by pressing on the "DOWNLOAD LATEST" button found at this link: https://folivora.ai/downloads
  3. Ensure that the version of BetterTouchTool you just installed is 4.701.

EDIT:
I may be wrong, see Andreas' message above :point_up_2:

Thanks! :slight_smile:
