OBS Studio 28.0.2
If you would like to support the OBS Project, please consider contributing to our Patreon or Open Collective!
macOS NOTE: The macOS updater in OBS Studio 28.0.0 and 28.0.1 was broken, so users on those versions will have to manually update to OBS Studio 28.0.2.

Users on older versions of OBS Studio can also manually update to OBS Studio 28.0.2 instead of using the in-app updater.
