macOS

one-command install

.dmg for Apple silicon (125 MB) · Intel (131 MB)

The .dmg needs one extra command after downloading — macOS reports any app that is not signed with an Apple Developer ID as “damaged”. The Terminal install avoids it entirely.

Windows

Windows 10 & 11

Run the installer and Aidle sets itself up — no terminal needed. If Windows asks you to confirm it first, choose More info → Run anyway.

Installing with apt from the terminal pulls in any missing dependencies for you.

Install on macOS from the terminal

The recommended way until Aidle is notarised: this avoids the “damaged” message entirely, because macOS only quarantines files downloaded by a browser.

# download, mount, copy to Applications, unmount curl -L -o ~/Downloads/Aidle.dmg https://www.aidle.pro/download/mac-arm MP=$(hdiutil attach -nobrowse -quiet ~/Downloads/Aidle.dmg | grep -o '/Volumes/.*' | tail -1) cp -R "$MP/Aidle.app" /Applications/ && hdiutil detach -quiet "$MP"

Already downloaded it in a browser and hit “damaged”? Run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Aidle.app once — the app is fine, macOS just cannot verify an app that is not signed with an Apple Developer ID.

Install on Ubuntu from the terminal

Downloads the current release and installs it with apt, pulling in any dependencies.

# download and install Aidle curl -L -o aidle.deb https://www.aidle.pro/download/deb \ && sudo apt install -y ./aidle.deb

Prefer no install? Grab the AppImage, chmod +x it, and run it in place.
