Install gim

All builds are early pre-releases, for testing. The newest one of each app is linked on the download page.

Android

Android 8.0 or later, arm64 or x86_64. Download the APK from gim-android releases and open it. The APK is signed with a debug key, so Android asks you to allow installing apps from your browser or file manager.

macOS

macOS 15 or later, Apple silicon or Intel. Download the zip from gim-mac releases. The app is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so the first launch needs one extra step:

1. Unzip the download and move GIM.app to Applications.
2. Open it. When macOS says it cannot verify the app, close the dialog.
3. Open System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway.

Or clear the quarantine flag in Terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/GIM.app

iOS and Windows

Not available yet. iOS needs distribution through the App Store or TestFlight; the Windows app is in development.

Command line

gim is a command-line client for scripts and testing, in gim-client-sdk. Build it from source with a Rust toolchain and a C compiler:

git clone https://github.com/gimhq/gim-client-sdk.git
cd gim-client-sdk
cargo build --release -p gim-cli   # -> target/release/gim

Every command takes a profile directory (--profile DIR or GIM_PROFILE), which holds one device. register creates it on the built-in hub:

gim --profile ~/.gim register alice "Alice"
gim --profile ~/.gim whoami

Never use one profile from two gim processes at once. gim --help lists every command.
