What is GoTo?

GoTo is a business communication app for Mac that brings online meetings, webinars, and calling together in one desktop workspace.

The desktop app supports screen sharing and other collaboration tools that are useful during live sessions, and it is also available through a web version when needed. On macOS, users typically install it when their organization uses GoTo for conferencing or phone service.

Safety overview

Status: Mostly safe

GoTo is legitimate communication software commonly used for meetings, webinars, and business calling. It may request normal access for its purpose, such as microphone, camera, notifications, and screen sharing permissions when you present or collaborate. Those requests are expected for conferencing tools, but you should still grant only the access you need and review screen sharing carefully before presenting sensitive content.

Recommendation: Keep GoTo if you use it for work, classes, webinars, or business calls. If you no longer use GoTo services, you can remove the app with little impact beyond losing quick access to meetings, calling, and saved app preferences.
