Question

Where can I download the NEW Quickbooks Online App for Mac?

I am trying to find the NEW Quickbooks Online App for Mac. But I'm afraid that there is a sea of topics out there that link to the old app. For example, this community topic, last updated four weeks ago, has a link to the old app, with the huge banner saying that the app will stop updating after April 20, 2021.

 

When I log into my QBO account on a Mac, I can go to the gear icon and click the "Get the desktop app" link on the menu. But that downloads the Windows version, which obviously won't run on a Mac. There's a button "Download for Windows," but not one for Mac.

 

Where is the definitive location to get the Mac app? (And to be clear, in this morning's In the Know webinar, a Mac version IS available!)

 

I'm afraid that I'm probably looking right at it, but just don't see it. And my Google-Fu so far is failing me.

 

Thanks! 

Don

I'm here to elaborate on some details about the QuickBooks Online app for Mac, donkiely.

 

Intuit has stopped updating QuickBooks Online App for Mac after April 20, 2021. You can still use the app as long your browser supports it.  However, even if the QuickBooks Online Mac app continues to work, we still recommend that you switch entirely to a web browser since Intuit won't be fixing any security vulnerabilities moving forward.

 

Furthermore, you can also search for another app that works well with QuickBooks. You can check the description and overall reviews to see how this app works.  I've added a sample screenshot for your visual guide:

 

 

 

 I've got this link for your reference: QuickBooks Online Application.
 

Let me know if there's anything else that you need about QBO App for Mac. I'll always be right here to help.

Thanks.

 

Then you might want to put out a consistent message about it. At the In the Know - QuickBooks Online Product Updates webinar this morning, as I said, they talked about the new app that was available for both Windows and Mac. So the Intuit people talking about what's new in QBO are putting out incorrect information.

I received the link to the recording of yesterday's In the Know - QuickBooks Online Product Updates put on by Intuit employees. Attached is a screen shot of the relevant slide that talks about the app that is now available for Windows and Mac.

 

So, someone is putting out incorrect information. Who is it?

 

Thanks! I really do appreciate your responses and help, and would love to have an app for the Mac.
