Welcome to the tomboy-ng download page
This is not the current release, please see the Wiki Release Page
Select your Package
- Linux users really should look at https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng/wiki/System-Requirements before downloading, selecting the right package is a touch complicated. Note there are 32bit and 64bit versions, GTK2 and Qt5 varieties.
- Windows users should download the Windows Installer, the .exe file, it works for both 32 and 64bit installs. Windows Defender will (quite rightly) tell you it stopped an unrecogonized app, warning its risky. Click "More Info" and you will see a "Run Anyway". Now you will be asked if you want to allow an unknown publisher (me!) to change your device. If you do, click yes.
- Mac Users - Download the 64bit dmg file, it is Cocoa based and probably your best bet unless you are running relatively old (and slow) hardware. The 32bit Carbon based one will not work on the newest MasOS but is somewhat faster. Install by double clicking the .dmg file and drag the tomboy-ng icon into the nearby Applications Folder. First time users will need to control click the tomboy-ng icon in Applications and select "Open". Have had a report of difficulties with that first start, even with the Control Click, please report !
