Installation

Desktop App

Download

Download the latest version for your platform:

• Windows Installer (.exe)
• macOS (.dmg)
• Linux (.deb / .AppImage)

Windows Installation

1. Download the .exe installer
2. Run the installer
3. Follow the installation wizard
4. Launch Blober from the Start Menu

⚠️ Windows SmartScreen may block the installer. When prompted, click “More info”, then click “Run anyway” to proceed with the installation. This is only needed once.

🔒 Your PC stays secure. Clicking “Run anyway” only allows the Blober installer to run - it does not change your system security settings or make your computer vulnerable in any way.

macOS Installation

1. Download the .dmg file
2. Open the DMG and drag Blober to Applications
3. Launch Blober from Applications folder

The app is code-signed and notarized by Apple, so it will open without any Gatekeeper warnings.

Linux Installation

.deb (Recommended for Ubuntu / Debian)

1. Download the .deb package
2. Install with: sudo dpkg -i blober_linux_*.deb
3. Launch Blober from your application menu or run blober in terminal

.AppImage (All distributions)

1. Download the .AppImage file
2. Make it executable: chmod +x blober_linux_*.AppImage
3. Run it: ./blober_linux_*.AppImage

⚠️ AppImages require FUSE 2 to run. If you see an error about libfuse.so.2, install it first:

• Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt install libfuse2
• Fedora: sudo dnf install fuse-libs
• Arch: sudo pacman -S fuse2

💡 Tip: The .deb package is the recommended format for Ubuntu/Debian users. It integrates with the system package manager, adds the app to your application menu, and installs icons automatically.
