mumu-lhl/Ciyue v2.1.0

Downloads

Android

Android Common vs Full: Common uses Android's system folder picker and copies selected dictionaries/audio into app-private storage, so it does not require broad storage access. Full requires the "Manage all files" permission on Android 11+ and reads dictionaries/audio directly from the selected external folder, avoiding the extra copy and saving storage.

Windows

Linux

macOS

Requires macOS 12 (Monterey) or later. The disk image is a universal build.

Launch at login needs macOS 13 (Ventura) or later; on macOS 12 the toggle has no effect.

The app is ad-hoc signed. If Gatekeeper reports the app as damaged or unverified, remove the quarantine flag with (or right-click the app and choose Open) after moving it to Applications.

System requirements

Windows: entries are rendered with Microsoft Edge WebView2. Windows 11 and
most Windows 10 installations already have the Evergreen Runtime through Edge
updates; Windows 10 LTSC and images without Edge do not, and need it installed
from https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=2124703 before the first
launch. Ciyue checks for it at startup and shows a prompt when it is missing.

Linux: the bundle ships its own WebKit, which requires glibc 2.38. Debian 12
(glibc 2.36) and Ubuntu 22.04 (glibc 2.35) cannot load it.
