Installation

Check the file is ours, then install it.

Requirements

  • Windows 10, 64-bit Intel or AMD.
  • Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04, or Linux Mint 21 or 22, 64-bit Intel or AMD.

Get the installer

Request an invite

Pigeon is invite-only.

Linux

Put the package and its .sha256 file in one folder, open a terminal there and run:

sha256sum --check pigeon-desktop_*_amd64.deb.sha256

It prints the file name and OK. Then open the .deb (Software Manager on Mint, App Center on Ubuntu), or run:

sudo apt install ./pigeon-desktop_*_amd64.deb

Windows

Open PowerShell in the folder with the installer and run:

Get-FileHash .\Pigeon*.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Every character must match the checksum you were given (capitals don't matter). Windows may show “Windows protected your PC”, because the installer isn't code-signed. If the checksum matched, select More info, check the file name, then Run anyway.

If the checksum doesn't match

Don't install it. Download it again; if it still doesn't match, tell us.

Updates

New versions arrive the same way as the first. What changed is in the release notes.
