How To

Install and update WebF1 Pad

Install the DEB, RPM, AppImage, Windows installer or Android APK, and learn how updates work.

Linux

DEB (Ubuntu, Debian, Mint):

sudo apt install ./webf1-pad_<version>_amd64.deb

RPM (Fedora, RHEL, openSUSE):

sudo dnf install ./webf1-pad-<version>.x86_64.rpm

AppImage (portable, any distribution):

chmod +x WebF1-Pad-<version>.AppImage
./WebF1-Pad-<version>.AppImage

Windows

Run the installer (WebF1-Pad_<version>_x64-setup.exe). It includes Microsoft’s WebView2 bootstrapper. If the WebView2 runtime is not already installed, Windows may download it during setup.

Android

  1. Download the APK from the download page.
  2. Open the APK and allow installs from that source when prompted.
  3. Install and open.

New releases

The download page always reads the current release information. To update, grab the new build and install it over the old one; your notes and settings are kept. Platforms still being prepared appear as Coming soon until their download is published.

See the release notes for what changed in each version - history for all past releases is kept there too.

Check for updates in the app

Help → Check for Updates… asks the download server for the newest release. If a newer version exists you get a notification with a Download link; otherwise the app confirms you are up to date. The app also checks on its own in the background and notifies you when a new release appears, so you rarely need to ask.
