Notes

The packages for windows are split into an appinstaller file with autoupdates
and an msix, which can be installed directly and won't check for updates. The
appimage is currently disabled until someone ports it to Qt6. The flatpak appid
changed and you will need to migrate manually.

For packagers most of our dependencies have been changed or updated. Most
significantly Nheko now depends on KDSingleApplication and Qt6.

Highlights

  • Qt6 6️⃣
    • This release migrates to version 6 of the Qt toolkit.

Downloads

We provide an installer for Windows as well as a "portable" variant, that won't be able to open matrix: links from your browser.

For Linux we provide flatpaks, however usually you should download them from Flathub. There is also an AppImage, but that does not support voice calls and in general will have some limitations. In any case, distro packages usually are the best option if they are up to date.

For macOS we now provide separate builds for apple silicon and intel macs. If you are packaging these, you might need to adapt your download paths!

This release requires Matrix API v1.1-v1.3. Please make sure your server is up

we recommend your server supports http/2 so that slow requests don't slow down
other parts of the app (like sending messages).

Nheko now has KRunner and Rofi plugins (developed by LorenDB and LordMZTE
respectively).
