Manual — sideloaded
Download APK

Sideloaded build. Android will ask you to allow installs from your browser.

Signing in still needs an invitation. The clients are free to download, but an account is issued by the operator. If you don't have one, apply for access.

Notes

Before you install.

Windows updates itself

The desktop client checks for updates in the background and installs them silently. Once it's on, you shouldn't need to come back to this page.

Android is sideloaded

Not distributed through Play. Android will ask you to allow installs from your browser the first time, and updates are manual — check back here.

Linux ships as AppImage

Mark it executable and run it, or take the .deb on Debian and Ubuntu. The build filenames still carry a pre-rebrand prefix; the binaries are current.

The browser is a first-class client

The web client installs as a PWA and gets features first. If you'd rather not install anything, nothing is missing.
