Install

The following steps install μTox on your computron/toaster/carrier pigeon. This guide gets you running ASAP. It mostly deals with precompiled binaries. If you're looking to contribute (you're the real MVP) you're probably looking for Building.

For any and all of the following, you'll need to have toxcore installed first.

Windows

Installing on Windows isn't really a thing yet... just download and run the latest version: x64.

Linux

If you find that uTox isn't packaged for your distribution, you will want to build it yourself.

(The following is not a complete list of distributions for which uTox has been packaged.)

Archlinux

If you're lucky enough to use Archlinux, uTox is in the community repo:

Install by running:

sudo pacman -S utox

Debian

Install by running:

sudo apt install utox

Slackware

If you use Slackware you can download the slack build from here.

Other distributions

uTox is available in the Guix package manager. Install by running:

guix install utox

Refer to the Guix Manual on how to install and use Guix itself.

OpenBSD

Right now no one is providing binaries. You will have to compile uTox. See instructions.

FreeBSD

You can install uTox using pkg:

sudo pkg install utox

macOS

If there is no current version here you can try to build it.

Install using homebrew cask:

brew cask install utox

Android

Install uTox from Google Play or download the APK.
