KEEP
Installing & Activating KEEP

Step-by-step instructions for each platform.

macOS

  1. Download the .dmg file from the downloads page.
  2. Open the .dmg and drag KEEP into your Applications folder.
  3. Launch KEEP from Applications.
  4. Enter your license key when prompted.

Gatekeeper note: If macOS shows "KEEP can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer," go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. This only happens on the first launch.

Linux — AppImage

No installation required. The AppImage runs directly.

  1. Download the .AppImage file.
  2. Make it executable: chmod +x KEEP-v0.10.30-linux-amd64.AppImage
  3. Run it: ./KEEP-v0.10.30-linux-amd64.AppImage
  4. Enter your license key when prompted.

Linux — .deb (Debian/Ubuntu)

  1. Download the .deb file.
  2. Install it: sudo apt install ./KEEP-v0.10.30-linux-amd64.deb
  3. Launch KEEP from your application menu or terminal.
  4. Enter your license key when prompted.

Windows

  1. Download the .msi file.
  2. Run the installer and follow the prompts.
  3. Launch KEEP from the Start menu.
  4. Enter your license key when prompted.

License Keys

Your license key was issued at purchase and shown on the confirmation screen. It was also included in your receipt email from Lemon Squeezy.

The key unlocks licensed features inside the application. If you can't find your key, check your email for the Lemon Squeezy receipt.

Your Data

KEEP stores all data locally on your machine, separate from the application itself.

Uninstalling KEEP does not delete your data. Reinstalling or updating preserves everything — your portfolios, sleeves, and settings remain intact.

Verifying Downloads (optional)

You can verify file integrity by comparing the SHA-256 checksum shown on the downloads page against the file you downloaded.

macOS / Linux:

shasum -a 256 <filename>

Windows (PowerShell):

Get-FileHash <filename> -Algorithm SHA256
