Installing Flow Fusion (Beta)

Flow Fusion beta builds are not code-signed, so Windows and macOS show a
warning the first time you run the app. This is expected — follow the steps
below to launch it. After the first launch, the app updates itself
automatically (OTA), so you only do this once.

Windows 10 / 11

  1. Download the Windows ZIP (Flow Fusion-<version>-windows.zip) from the latest
    GitHub Release.
  2. Right-click the ZIP → Extract All… to a folder you like
    (e.g. Documents\Flow Fusion). Do not run it from inside the ZIP.
  3. Open the folder and double-click Flow Fusion.exe.
  4. If Windows shows "Windows protected your PC" (SmartScreen):
    click More infoRun anyway.

Keep all files together in the extracted folder — the app needs the DLLs and
the data folder next to the .exe. Auto-updates replace these in place.

macOS 10.14+ (Mojave and newer)

  1. Download the macOS ZIP (Flow Fusion-<version>-macos.zip) from the latest
    GitHub Release.
  2. Move Flow Fusion.app to your Applications folder.
  3. The first launch is blocked by Gatekeeper. Use one of these:
    • Right-click (or Control-click) the app → OpenOpen in the
      dialog; or
    • Open Terminal and run:
      xattr -cr "/Applications/Flow Fusion.app"
      then open the app normally.

Because the beta is unsigned, macOS re-checks the app after each OTA update —
if it gets blocked again, repeat the right-click → Open step.

Updating

You don't need to reinstall. When a new beta is published, Flow Fusion detects
it on launch and shows an update banner — click Update, then
Restart & install. You can also trigger a check from Settings → Updates →
Check for updates
.
