Installing
Stello is available on all major operating systems.
Windows
Install Stello via the Microsoft Store from your computer or the website.
Mac
Once downloading finishes, open the file and drag Stello into the Applications folder shown. You can then delete the file that was downloaded, and open Stello from your Applications.
Linux
Once downloading finishes, change the permissions of the AppImage file to allow execution. You can then simply click it to open Stello.
Right-click > Properties > Permissions > Allow executing file as program
AppImage files require libfuse2 which is usually already installed on most systems or is otherwise easily available. For Ubuntu you can run sudo apt install libfuse2
, as the default is FUSE 3 which is not yet supported.
We publish Stello as an AppImage on Linux as it works in any distribution and auto-updates itself. You can place it wherever you like.
Ubuntu 24.04+
There is an ongoing issue where Ubuntu has broken support for some platforms like the one Stello is built on (Electron). If you execute Stello from your desktop or via a terminal it will complain about sandboxing issues. An easy way around this is to simply double-click it from within the default file manager (Nautilus).
Chrome OS
Recent Chromebooks support Linux by default and so you should be able to download Stello for Linux and follow the instructions above.
