First open
Opening it the first time.
Blobby is new, so your computer may double-check it once. It never needs admin rights, and it only talks to the AI apps on your own computer, so there’s no firewall prompt.
Windows
- Run
Blobby-Setup.exe. - If you see “Windows protected your PC”, choose More info.
- Choose Run anyway. Windows remembers, so it won’t ask again.
macOS
- Open the download and drag Blobby to Applications.
- Open it. If macOS asks whether to open an app from the internet, choose Open.
- If it says it can’t check the app, open System Settings, then Privacy & Security, and choose Open Anyway next to Blobby.
Linux
- Install the .deb, or make the AppImage executable:
chmod +x Blobby-x86_64.AppImage. - Open Blobby from your app menu.
