Get TALISK_HQ for Mac and Windows

The TALISK_HQ desktop app is the same TALISK_HQ you use in a browser, in its own window. It sits in your Dock or taskbar instead of among your browser tabs, shows the unread count on its icon, and tells you when mail arrives. Email links in other apps can open a new message in TALISK_HQ, and invoices and reports print through your computer's own printing.

The first time you open TALISK_HQ on a computer, once your inbox or your dashboard has loaded, TALISK_HQ asks where you want to work. Get the desktop app (recommended) starts the download for your computer, and Keep using the browser closes the question for good. Either way it does not ask again.

To download it later, open Settings › Account and find Desktop App. Choose Download for Mac or Download for Windows. The sidebar also has a Get the desktop app link at the bottom until the app is installed.

To install it and open it the first time, follow the install guide. It has the steps for Mac and for Windows, including what to do if your computer asks before opening an app downloaded from the internet.

On your phone, open More and tap Email me the link under TALISK_HQ for your computer. TALISK_HQ sends the download link to the email address you sign in with, so you can open it on your computer.

Don't want the reminder? Click the × beside Get the desktop app in the sidebar to hide it. It stays hidden on every browser you use. The download buttons are still in Settings › Account if you change your mind.

Now and then, after you do something the desktop app does better in the browser (print an invoice, turn on notifications, or come back for the fifth day in a fortnight), a short line under the top of the page mentions it. Each one appears once at most, never more than one a day, and click the × on it to dismiss it. After three dismissed, TALISK_HQ stops mentioning the app this way.

A day or so after you sign up, TALISK_HQ may send you one email with the download link, unless you have already installed the app or chose to keep using the browser. To stop emails like it, use the link at the bottom of the email, or open Settings › Account and turn off Send me tips and offers.

Once you have used the desktop app, TALISK_HQ stops suggesting it in your browser.
