daffy37 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) I'm using the last version of all three Affinity apps from the Mac App store and often I'm running them in the background with windows closed. I have noticed that they are sometimes not responding and I have to force close them and start them again which takes some time on my MacBook Air 2017. Upon some investigation, I have discovered that that happens only if I have restarted my laptop between launching any of Affinity apps and only if restart occurred with any of the apps were running in the background when initiating restart. In the last test, I have waited to see what will happen if I don't force close them and they have eventually started up. The current situation is that I click on Affinity app icon and after a few seconds splash screen appears and that after another second app window appears. I think it would be better to inform users that apps will respond eventually it is designed behavior of course. Let's say that the splash screen starts immediately after interacting with the icon and starts displaying the loading bar. In that way, users will be informed that things are running as planned. If the app can't launch immediately that is. Edited April 8, 2021 by jandorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted April 8, 2021 Staff Share Posted April 8, 2021 Hi jandorn, This is something we're aware of and is caused by some security checks within macOS before it will execute the application's code and is something that we're looking into.
