Installation
Server Box is available on several platforms. Choose the download source for your device.
Mobile
Section titled “Mobile”Download Server Box from the App Store.
Android
Section titled “Android”Choose an installation source:
- GitHub Releases: Project release page
- F-Droid: FOSS app repository
- OpenAPK: Third-party app store
Desktop
Section titled “Desktop”Download from GitHub Releases, or install with Homebrew Cask:
brew install --cask server-boxmacOS 13 or later is required. GitHub Releases provide ServerBox-<version>-arm64.dmg for Apple silicon and ServerBox-<version>-amd64.dmg for Intel; Homebrew automatically selects the correct build for your Mac.
The Mac App Store version is no longer updated. Install the DMG over it: its first launch copies the App Store version’s data in.
Download the AppImage from GitHub Releases.
Windows
Section titled “Windows”Download the installer (ServerBox_v1.0.N_windows_amd64.exe) from GitHub Releases. It installs for the current user into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\ServerBox, without administrator rights, and adds a Start menu entry and an uninstaller. A new version installs over the old one; settings and servers are kept.
The installer is not code-signed, so SmartScreen may show “unknown publisher”. A portable zip is still published next to it for now.
watchOS
Section titled “watchOS”The Watch app is distributed with the iOS app through the App Store. After installation, configure the servers to show in the iPhone app. The Watch app requires watchOS 10 or later; the iOS app itself still supports iOS 15 or later.
