Quick start
01
Download

Pick the package for the machine.

02
Pair once

Open your profile and hand the watcher its key.

03
Import + watch

Scan old replays once, then leave live watch running.

Mac fallback

Most Mac users will not need this. If Gatekeeper blocks launch, clear quarantine once:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/AoE2HDBets Watcher.app"
open "/Applications/AoE2HDBets Watcher.app"
