Repeated clicks should stop the current preparation safely. If the app closes, include the visible steps and macOS version in the beta report, but do not attach raw logs containing personal information.
Start here
- Install the latest Nativ version available to you.
- Quit and reopen Nativ.
- Run the affected check again and note the visible error text.
- If the result is inconclusive, use the explanation in Nativ rather than repeatedly approving a repair.
Privacy and local history
Open History in Nativ to delete one record, clear all records, or export a sanitized report. Nativ has no user account, so there is no cloud account to delete.
What to include in a support request
- Mac model or whether it uses Apple silicon or Intel;
- macOS and Nativ version;
- the selected troubleshooting flow;
- the visible error message; and
- steps that reliably reproduce the problem.
Do not send Wi-Fi names or passwords, personal file paths, serial numbers, raw device logs, credentials, or document contents.
Contact Nativ
A monitored support email and the developer’s verified business identity will be published here before release. This route must not be submitted to App Store Connect until that contact method works.
