How to Install Gorby as a Desktop App

Installing Gorby as a desktop app creates a convenient shortcut that opens the application in its own window, separate from your browser. Note that this is still a web-based application, just with a more native app-like experience.

  1. 1

    Open Gorby

    Visit Gorby by going to gorby.app/analyze/.

  2. 2

    Install from Your Browser

    The installation steps vary slightly depending on which browser you're using.

    Chrome or Edge (Windows & macOS)

    Look for the install icon () in the address bar and click it. The app will open in its own window and create a desktop shortcut.

    Tip: We recommend using Microsoft Edge

    Edge's installation dialog offers extra options to customize how you access Gorby — including pinning to your taskbar or Start menu, creating a desktop shortcut, and configuring auto-start on login.

    Firefox currently doesn't support Progressive Web Apps. Please use Chrome, Edge, or Safari to install Gorby as a desktop app.

That's it!

Gorby is now installed as a desktop app and ready to use. If you run into any issues during installation, reach out at contact@gorby.app.
