How to disable AppImage warnings

Every time I open an appimage, I get an annoying warning saying "Are you sure you want to run (program name).AppImage"

I'm a more advanced user, and double check validity of the programs before running, and I get the message every time I open an image even when I've opened it before. Is there a way to disable this warning either by a setting or by the terminal?

Replying because I have the same issue and want to see it resolved. Tried making a .desktop file in the ./applications directory, but alas I am still a novice so I don't know if I did it right. Setting it as an executable through "Properties/Permisssions" also doesn't work, neither did the command "chmod +x [application]".
Maybe you can create a .desktop file in the usr/share/applications and make it look like the other text files there.
I wish yo luck with this problem.

I don't know if this will make any difference to the situation. Could only find solutions to terminal warnings.

An Alternative to @swarfendor437's Suggestion would be Gear Lever (both are to find in the Gnome Software Center as a Flatpak). The Difference between both is, that Gear Lever is a pure AppImage Manager. With AppImage Pool you can download them from Github.
