App

App#

The gptme app packages the web UI as a native app for macOS, Windows, Linux, and Android. It is built with Tauri, so every platform shares the same interface.

Install#

Download the build for your platform from the latest release:

  • macOS, Windows, and Linux (AppImage and .deb): once installed, the app checks the releases for updates and updates itself.

  • Android: install the APK from the release. It doesn’t update itself; install newer releases the same way.

How it connects#

  • Desktop: on launch, the app starts its bundled gptme-server on localhost, or reuses a gptme-server that is already running, and opens the web UI in a native window. You don’t need Python installed. The server is protected by a bearer token shared only with the app window.

  • Android: the app can’t run a local gptme-server. In its setup wizard, sign in to gptme.ai, or connect to your own gptme-server by entering its URL and auth token.

Since it’s the same web UI, see Web for what it can do, Server for running one yourself, and Providers for setting up model access.

To build the app yourself, see tauri/README.md.
