Short answer  Put the executable file in  usr local bin instead of applications  You should now be able to run commands like ngrok http 80   Long answer  When you type commands like ngrok in the terminal  Macs  and other Unix OSs  look for these programs in the folders specified in your PATH  The PATH is a list of folders that s specified by each user  To check your path  open the terminal and type  echo  PATH   You ll see output that looks something like   usr local bin  usr bin  bin  This is a   separated list of folders   So when you type ngrok in the terminal  your Mac will look for this executable in the following folders   usr local bin   usr bin  and  bin   Read this post if you are interested in learning about why you should prefer usr local bin over other folders

In my case  I kept ignoring the instructions that very explicitly tell you to use a terminal on Mac OS  because it looked like it was unzipping correctly   On Linux or Mac OS X you can unzip ngrok from a terminal with the following command  On Windows  just double click ngrok zip to extract it   unzip  path to ngrok zip  However  as soon as I tried running the above command in my terminal  it worked perfectly fine

With Homebrew already installed on your Mac  you can easily install ngrok from the terminal  using this command     brew cask install ngrok   Then run it from the shell using this command     ngrok http 8000   With this command  you re telling ngrok to basically create a tunnel to your localhost 8000 and assign an internet name host for it  And thats it  You should be good to go
