Install the desktop app (Linux)

Voyager on Linux is distributed as a .deb package and an AppImage. Download the app from the website.

Debian and Ubuntu (recommended)

sudo apt install ./Voyager-linux-amd64-*.deb

Voyager appears in your application launcher and updates itself in place; installing an update asks for your password.

Other distributions: AppImage

chmod +x Voyager-linux-amd64-*.AppImage
./Voyager-linux-amd64-*.AppImage

The AppImage needs FUSE 2. On distributions that no longer ship it, install libfuse2 (libfuse2t64 on Ubuntu 24.04+) or use the .deb package.

Integrate into your app menu

Use Gear Lever to install the AppImage so it appears in your application launcher, with icons and desktop integration handled for you.

  1. Install Gear Lever from Flathub:

    flatpak install flathub it.mijorus.gearlever

  2. Open Gear Lever, drag in the Voyager AppImage (or use + to pick the file).

  3. Confirm the source, then choose Move to the app menu.
