Download for Windows Download for Linux

Windows 10/11 and Linux · What's new

All downloads

The installer is the easy choice. The others are for when you can't or don't want to install.

Windows installer

Echo-Setup.exe. Adds Echo to the Start menu and updates itself. Recommended.

Download

Windows, no install

A zip: unpack it anywhere and run EchoClip.exe inside. Handy on a PC where you can't install apps.

Download

Linux AppImage

One file that runs on most distributions. Updates itself like on Windows.

Download

Linux Flatpak

Opens in Discover, GNOME Software or Bazaar and updates from there. Brings everything it needs - best for Steam Deck and Bazzite.

Install with Flatpak

Packaging Echo or no AppImages on your system? There's also a plain .tar.gz build.

Code signing: Echo's Windows files are built from the public source by GitHub Actions and signed with a Certum Open Source Code Signing certificate. See the Code signing policy.

Installing

Windows

Run Echo-Setup.exe. It's signed with a Certum open-source code-signing certificate. The certificate is still new, so if Windows says "Windows protected your PC", click More info → Run anyway.

Linux

Make the AppImage runnable (right-click → Properties → "Allow executing", or chmod +x Echo-x86_64.AppImage) and open it. Echo uses gpu-screen-recorder and ffmpeg from your system. Flatpak: click "Install with Flatpak", then open the downloaded Echo.flatpak - Discover, GNOME Software or Bazaar installs it and keeps it updated.

First start

A short setup picks your hotkey and where clips go. Then play - press the key whenever something happens worth keeping.

What you need

Windows

Windows 10 (1903 or newer) or 11, 64-bit, and a graphics card with a video encoder - practically every NVIDIA, AMD or Intel GPU from the last eight years.

Linux

A current 64-bit distribution. The AppImage also needs gpu-screen-recorder and ffmpeg installed; the Flatpak brings its own.

Disk space

About 170 MB for Echo and its video player, plus roughly 1.5 GB for a 10-minute replay buffer at the standard quality.
