Download Mic Drop 1.0

The original version of Mic Drop was available on the Mac App Store and as a direct download from our website. The version on the App Store is still available, but we stopped selling a direct version from our website when we launched Mic Drop 2.0.

We think this will be a better user experience for most of our users. Now you don’t need to worry about licensing or write in to reset your key when you switch to a new Mac. It also frees us up to spend more of our time focused on building features you love. We’re a small team of two and this makes all the difference!

So the new version of Mic Drop is only available on the Mac App Store.

Okay, but I want to download the original version

Fair enough! If you want to download the OG Mic Drop (currently 1.5.0), you can get it here: https://getmicdrop.com/downloads/latest.zip

Permissions for Mic Drop 1.0

Mic Drop 1.0 required keyboard input permissions to support double-tap shortcuts. We nixed them in version 2.0 since most users didn’t use them. This means that Mic Drop 2.0 doesn’t need to ask for any permissions, making for a better experience for most users.

If you’d like to use a double-tap shortcut, we have a workaround you can use!
