Installation

macOS

1. Download RecordTor_x64.dmg from the Releases page.

2. Open the .dmg file and drag RecordTor into your Applications folder.

3. Important — the app is unsigned. macOS will block it on first launch. To allow it, run the following command in Terminal once after installation:

   xattr -cr /Applications/RecordTor.app

4. Now you can open RecordTor normally from Applications.

Windows

1. Download RecordTor_x64-setup.exe from the Releases page.
2. Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. The app is unsigned, so Windows SmartScreen may show a warning. Click "More info" and then "Run anyway" to proceed with the installation.

Linux

AppImage

1. Download record-tor_amd64.AppImage from the Releases page.

2. Make it executable and run:

   chmod +x record-tor_amd64.AppImage
   ./record-tor_amd64.AppImage

Debian / Ubuntu (.deb)

1. Download record-tor_amd64.deb from the Releases page.

2. Install it:

   sudo dpkg -i record-tor_amd64.deb

Android

1. Download RecordTor.apk from the Releases page.
2. Open the APK file on your device. If prompted, enable "Install from unknown sources" in your device settings.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

Troubleshooting

macOS — "App is damaged and can't be opened"

This happens because the app is not signed with an Apple Developer certificate. Run the following command to remove the quarantine flag:

xattr -cr /Applications/RecordTor.app

Windows — SmartScreen warning

Click "More info" → "Run anyway". This warning appears because the app is not signed with a Windows code-signing certificate.

Linux — AppImage won't launch

Make sure the file is executable:

chmod +x record-tor_amd64.AppImage
