The release moment
Your app is finished.
The release still needs work.
Direct distribution asks you to do more than export a build. You have to make installation clear, navigate Apple's trust requirements, and send a file you feel good about putting in front of customers.
One focused workspace
From app bundle
to confident download.
DMGKit keeps the release steps visible, connected, and deliberately less terminal-heavy.
- 01
Shape the install
Build a DMG window that tells customers what to do the moment they open it.
- 02
Prepare the release
Bring signing, notarization, stapling, export settings, and app assets into a single release flow.
- 03
Review before sending
Use Inspector to look at the package structure and release details before the download is public.
The toolkit
Not a checklist.
A release bench.
NOTARIZATION
Keep Apple’s release path in view.
Prepare signing, notarization, stapling, and export settings without losing the context of the release you are making.
LEGAL DOCUMENTS
Include the details that travel with your app.
Manage Terms, Privacy Policy, EULA, and installer agreements from the same workspace.

Generate the appcast with the release.
Store an app profile and let DMGKit generate the appcast.xml during export.

What does DMGKit Inspector do?+
Inspector is a free companion utility for reviewing DMG or package structure and release details before distribution.
Can I use DMGKit with Python, Electron, or Tauri?+
DMGKit is designed for modern macOS app bundles from native and common cross-platform development stacks.
