# Connect your creative apps
> Let Voyager find the creative apps on your computer, such as DaVinci Resolve or Blender, so the agent can use them in your projects.
When you finish, Voyager knows which creative apps you have, and the agent uses them for the jobs they're best at. This is step 3 of 5, **Creative apps**. It's optional.
**Before you start**
* **Nothing is required.** If you don't have any creative apps, Voyager's agent still makes videos with open tools such as Remotion and FFmpeg, which come with Voyager.
* Voyager uses the apps you already have, with your own licences. It doesn't install or buy apps for you.
* **Platform:** the agent can drive Adobe apps live only on macOS today. Some apps, such as DaVinci Resolve, need a setting turned on inside the app first.
## Review your apps
The step opens with a short animation of the agent working in an editor. Under it, the **Apps** section fills in as Voyager looks for creative apps on your computer. The **Continue** button reads **Finding apps…** until it's done.
Each app Voyager found has a row with its name, what it's for (for example video or 3D), and a status on the right:
| Status | What it means |
| - | - |
| **Connected** (green check) | Voyager has checked the app and can use it. |
| **Detected** (gray check) | The app is installed. Voyager checks it the first time the agent uses it. |
| **Set up** | The app needs one change before the agent can use it. |
If nothing was found, the section says **No creative apps found yet.** That's fine: the agent uses its open tools instead.
Click **Set up** on the app's row. The row opens and tells you exactly what to change inside that app, for example a setting in its preferences.
Make the change in the app, then click **Check again**. When the app is ready, the row shows **Connected**.
Not now? Leave it. The row also says **Or set it up later in Connectors.**
Click **Continue**. Voyager saves which app to use for each kind of job, so the agent doesn't have to ask you in every chat. An installed app you set up is preferred over Voyager's open tools. Choices you saved earlier are kept.
If anything needs to download or finish setting up, Voyager does it in the background and shows a message such as **Setting up … in the background**. You can follow progress in the sidebar, under **Apps**.
## Change your apps later
Go to **Settings → Connectors** to see every app Voyager supports, set up an app you skipped, choose which app does each job, or stop the agent from using an app.
## Check it worked
* Apps you set up show **Connected** or **Detected**.
* The setup bar shows a check next to **Creative apps**, and you're on **Permissions**.
## If something went wrong
Voyager lists apps it can drive and finds in their usual install location. Click **Continue**, then open **Settings → Connectors** to find the app and see what it needs. If you installed the app while setup was open, restart Voyager so it looks again.
Make sure the app is open and the change is saved, then click **Check again**. Some apps only pick up a setting after you restart them.
Click **Continue** again. If it keeps failing, quit and reopen Voyager. Your setup is already saved, so Voyager opens normally, and you can choose your apps in **Settings → Connectors**.
Choose whether Voyager can see and control your screen, and set your privacy switches.
