Import your license file

The simplest way to activate WhisprDesk is the license file that came attached to your purchase email. This page walks through it.

What the file is

Your purchase email includes an attachment named WhisprDesk.whisprdesk-license. It is a tiny file that holds your license. Importing it activates the app without you having to copy a long key by hand.

How to import it

1. Open your purchase email from licenses@whisprdesk.com.

2. Save the attached WhisprDesk.whisprdesk-license file to your Mac (Downloads is fine).

3. Open WhisprDesk. On the “Activate WhisprDesk” screen, choose “Import license file”.

4. Select the file you just saved. WhisprDesk activates right away.

You import the file from inside WhisprDesk using the button above. There is no need to double-click the file itself.

Activating a second Mac

You can use the same file on your second Mac. One license covers up to two Macs. Forward yourself the email or copy the file over, and import it the same way.

Keep the email

We recommend keeping your purchase email. It has both your key and the license file, so you can re-activate any time, for example after reinstalling or setting up a new Mac.

If you have lost the email, contact support@whisprdesk.com and we will resend it to the address you purchased with.
