This app was made to do
exactly one thing, and do it well.
Your Mac already has one of the best PDF viewers on earth. You shouldn't have to get another one that has an AI chat, ads, another cloud storage account just to sign a PDF. Especially, if that app doesn't sign your documents properly half the time.
Works offline, no accounts
Is this compatible with all Belgian eID cards?
Yes, Autograph works with all Belgian eID cards issued after 2014. It uses the official eID middleware provided by the Belgian government to ensure compatibility and security.
What card reader do I need?
Autograph should in theory work with any smartcard reader. You can buy one on Coolblue, Bol.com, literally any electronics store, or at your commune.
What about my privacy?
Your privacy is paramount. Autograph never uploads your documents or signatures to any server. All processing happens locally on your Mac. The Autograph app does not collect any data, analytics, or telemetry.
Are the signatures legally binding?
Yes, signatures created with Autograph using your Belgian eID are fully compliant with eIDAS regulations and are legally binding throughout the European Union.
Which macOS versions are supported?
Autograph requires macOS 11 or later and a Mac with Apple Silicon.
