    Supported Windows versions are 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and 11. If you run into issues, found a bug, want to suggest a feature or ask for help with something, take a look at the help pages!

    A version for Windows on ARM processors, a 32 Bit version as well as the dedicated server and command-line tools are available under Extras.

    Free code signing is provided by SignPath.io, certificate by SignPath Foundation. See the code signing policy for details.

    Note: If you get an error about missing the Visual Studio Redistributable or a VCRUNTIME DLL, you need to install those first. They are provided by Microsoft, you can download them here.

    macOS

    If your Mac is too old, you can find Drawpile for older macOS versions under Extras.

    If you run into issues, found a bug, want to suggest a feature or ask for help with something, take a look at the help pages!

    Note 1: If you don't know whether you have an Apple Silicon Mac or an Intel Mac, take a look at Apple's help page about that.

    Note 2: On macOS, you will probably get a message saying that Drawpile could not be opened because we are not verified by Apple. To get rid of this, we'd have to pay them money. See these installation instructions on how to open it anyway.

    Linux

    Flatpak comes pre-installed on some Linux distributions and is generally easy to set up. Take a look at the Flathub setup page for how to install it. It does not include the dedicated server or command-line tools. The AppImage is self-contained, but needs to be downloaded and updated manually. To find out how to use it take a look at the AppImage manual and troubleshooting page. It includes the client, server and command line tools, run it with --help to see what's included.

    If you want to set up a server on Linux, take a look at the dedicated server help page.

    Android

    Getting Drawpile on F-Droid is recommended over using the APK directly. It will install the correct version for your device automatically and you don't need to manually download updates with it.

    If you run into issues, found a bug, want to suggest a feature or ask for help with something, take a look at the help pages!

    APKs for 32 bit and Android 10 and older are available under Extras.

    Note: For the APK, you have to enable apps from unknown sources. How exactly this works depends on your device, but it should be in the settings somewhere. To get rid of this, we'd have to pay Google money.

    Web

    The Web Browser version of Drawpile should work on all operating systems and most browsers. It's the same applications as the desktop and mobile versions. For iPad and iPhone, it's the only option available because Apple doesn't allow Drawpile in its store.

    When you invite someone to your session on a server that supports it, the invite page will automatically show them the option to join via browser. You don't need to link them this page.

    If you have your own server and want to enable connecting to it via the browser, take a look at the WebSocket server setup page.

    Server and Tools

    The dedicated server drawpile-srv and the command-line tools dprectool, drawpile-cmd and drawpile-timelapse are available as follows:

    Instructions for the dedicated server can be found on the dedicated server help page.

    ARM, 32 Bit and Old OS Versions

    These are versions of Drawpile for more unusual or ancient devices (20+ years old for PCs, 10+ years old for Apple or Android.) If you're not sure whether you need them, you probably don't!

    Free code signing for the Windows client is provided by SignPath.io, certificate by SignPath Foundation. See the code signing policy for details.

    Note 1: Only use these versions if you know that your device needs them. If not, use the regular versions, those are faster and more stable.

    Note 2: If you get an error on Windows about missing the Visual Studio Redistributable or a VCRUNTIME DLL, you need to install those first. They are provided by Microsoft, you can download them here.
