Rewind needs two permissions to work: screen recording and accessibility. All screen

recordings are stored locally and only you have access to them. We use the accessibility permission to store additional information about your screen, like the current web address. This allows you to easily go back to the webpage later.

Microphone permissions are optional but highly recommended to record and transcribe meetings and any audio.

To set up permissions again, click on the Rewind icon in the menu bar (upper right hand corner of your Mac) > Quick Start. Going through on 'onboarding flow' will allow you to re-grant permissions.
