How to Enable Required Permissions for TimoDesk on macOS

blog thumb image

To ensure TimoDesk works properly on your Mac (tracking time, capturing screenshots, and monitoring activity), you need to grant a few system permissions manually. Don’t worry — it takes less than 2 minutes.

Why Are These Permissions Required?

macOS protects your privacy by restricting app access to certain system features. TimoDesk requires the following permissions to function correctly:

  • Accessibility → To detect activity status
  • Screen & System Audio Recording → To capture screenshots
  • Input Monitoring → To measure keyboard and mouse activity

If these are not enabled, tracking and screenshots may not work properly.

Step 1: Open Privacy & Security Settings

  1. Open Settings Settings Icon
  2. Go to Privacy & Security Image

Step 2: Enable Accessibility Permission

  1. Inside Privacy & Security, select Accessibility Image

  2. Find and select TimoDesk Image

  3. Turn the toggle ON (enter your password if prompted).

Step 3: Enable Screen & System Audio Recording

  1. Go back to Privacy & Security

  2. Select Screen & System Audio Recording Image

  3. Enable TimoDesk Image

Step 4: Enable Input Monitoring

  1. Go back to Privacy & Security

  2. Select Input Monitoring Image

  3. Enable TimoDesk Image

Final Step: Restart TimoDesk

After enabling all permissions, completely quit TimoDesk and open it again. This ensures macOS applies the new permissions correctly.
