where are the beta folders?


Recommended Posts

Where is the com.seriflabs.affinityphoto folder for the beta version? I want to use all my shorty, brushes, prferences... from the real app in the beta, so i think i just replace the relevant user-folder and other stuff from the official to the beta? Does this work? Thankyou!

The beta apps live in; Your Home folder > Library > Application Support.
Affinity apps bought directly from Serif also live in this location.
I too have been copying the ‘user’ folder over to the beta app, and vice versa, for some time now and as yet have had no problems after doing it.
Just remember though, it is a “hack” and not a recommended procedure and one day it may go pear shaped!

Hi Polygonius, yes it was the right path I posted.
In your screenshot it looks like you are not in the ‘Application Support’ folder in your ‘Home’ ‘Library’ folder.
Here’s a screenshot from my 'Home' folder to the AP beta ‘user’ folder.
Note, in the beta apps and apps bought directly from Serif the folders do not start with “com.seriflabs.” but just use the apps regular name e.g. ‘Affinity Photo Beta’.
