The app always shows Accessibility Permission Needed window on start #5

Even though the app has Accessibility permission granted, it always shows the alert when launched

I had this happen as well.... Here's the workaround for now:

System Preferences, Privacy & Security, Accessibility.

Find and select openterface. (You probably already had this enabled from installing the original version from the App Store.)

Click the - (minus) at the bottom of the page to delete this. Enter your password to make the change (if applicable).

Now click the + (plus) button. Find openterface from the Applications list, and click open.

I don't yet know if this is simply an issue with the App Store public version vs. the Test Flight version, or if this is a bigger issue. Definitely something that needs to have improved user experience.

@RouteTable That's the exact scenario I had - I first installed the app from the AppStore and then transitioned to TF one. The solution you provided helped!

It's better to delete the app from the App Store and use only the version from TestFlight for internal testing, as the two may conflict if they exist simultaneously.
