Answer the first three questions

Three short cards come first, before the setup steps. Read each one and answer it.

Steps

  1. “Before you start: the beta agreement”. Tick each box, then press “Accept and continue”.
  2. “May Nearfield send usage counts?” Choose “Yes, send counts” or “No, do not send”.
  3. “Crash reports are on”. Choose “Keep them on” or “Turn them off”.

When it worked

The setup shows "Step 1 of 5". Go on to Choose your projects folder.

More about this

Nearfield sends usage counts only if you say yes. You can change this later in Settings.

If Nearfield crashes, it sends us a short report. It never holds your name, your email, your project names or your file names. See Crash reports.
