🤴🏽 Hard-fork of Franz, adding awesome features and removing unwanted ones.

Ferdium is a desktop app that helps you organize how you use your favourite apps by combining them into one application. It is based on Franz - a software already used by thousands of people - with the difference that Ferdium gives you many additional features and doesn't restrict its usage! Furthermore, Ferdium is compatible with your existing Franz account, so you can continue right where you left off. Please find out more about Ferdium and its features on ferdium.org.

Unsigned Nightlies on MacOS

Since we are waiting to acquire the Apple Developer License, we are publishing our nightlies without being signed. If you download these, and are on MacOS beyond Catalina, you will face the issue that the OS says the dmg is corrupted. If so, please run the following command in your terminal:

sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Ferdium.app

Unsigned Nightlies on Windows

Similarly to the MacOS, we do not currently have a certificate to sign the nightlies on Windows. For this reason, an error will appear when launching the setup tool or the portable app if your execution policy is not set to Bypass or Unrestricted. In order to allow the script to run, it is sufficient to right-click on the .exe to access its properties and to tick the box labeled Unblock at the bottom of the General tab. Alternatively, you could execute the following in a PowerShell:

Unblock-File -Path .\Ferdium-Setup-6.0.0-nightly.xx.exe; .\Ferdium-Setup-6.0.0-nightly.xx.exe

Migrating from Ferdi

If you are a pre-existing user of Ferdi, and are thinking of switching to Ferdium, you might want to run the following scripts to migrate your existing Ferdi profile such that Ferdium can pick up the configurations. (.ps1 for PowerShell/Windows users and .sh for UNIX (Linux and MacOS users)
