Mobile apps

SourceWeft in your pocket.

Read, ask, and review your sources on the go. The iOS and Android apps are in preparation; until the store listings go live, the web app works in Safari and Chrome on any phone.

A closer look

What you get on the desktop.

Captured from the macOS app. The same workspaces as the web, plus the parts that only make sense next to your files and your machine.

Give a chat a working directory so files it reads and writes stay on your machine.

FAQ

Download and install basics

Is the desktop app different from the web app?

It signs in to the same SourceWeft account and opens the same workspaces, chats, and sources. On top of that it adds a native window and, on macOS, local device capabilities such as working directories and file panels.

Why does macOS say the app cannot be verified?

Earlier verification builds were not signed or notarized. Check the release’s signing information and compare its SHA-256 checksum before installing. Signed releases are built with an Apple Developer certificate and notarization.

Why does Windows SmartScreen warn about the installer?

Earlier verification installers were unsigned. Check the release’s signing information and SHA-256 checksum before proceeding. The signed release pipeline uses a Windows code-signing certificate.

How do updates work?

Updater-enabled clients check and download in the background, then ask before installation. Choose Stable or Preview in Settings → About → Software update. Older clients require one manual installation of an updater-enabled release. Linux in-app updates use the AppImage package.

What is a preview build?

Preview builds are release candidates published from pre-release tags before a stable release. They may change before the stable version ships.

Is there a Linux build?

Linux x64 is packaged as an AppImage. When a release is published, its download appears above. Make the downloaded file executable and run it; some distributions require FUSE 2. AppImage updates use the same stable and preview channels. Local device execution still requires macOS.
