First Launch

4. From your Applications folder, double click on the Boom.app file. You will first be presented with a warning telling you that Boom is an app downloaded from the internet, go ahead and click “Open” and then you will be asked to sign in to Boom with your Google account.
   
   

5. Next, Boom will ask for permission to access your camera as well as install the Boom camera extension.
   
   You can read more about the permissions Boom requests at Permissions.

   
   💡 Note: when installing the Boom camera extension, you will need to go to your System Settings to give Boom access by clicking the “Allow” button and entering your user password when prompted.
   
   

6. Okay, onto the fun stuff. Select your Video input from the drop down menu and you are good to go!
   
   

💡 Note: If you had your browser or video streaming client open while installing Boom, you may have to quit (cmd + Q) and reopen them for the Boom Camera to be available as a camera option.
