Thanks for checking out Frame! Frame is a privacy-focused Ethereum wallet that runs on macOS, Windows and Linux. As a native desktop application, Frame keeps your wallet's secrets out of the browser and allows you to manage all of your accounts, tokens and NFTs. Frame can connect to any EVM chain, such as Ethereum mainnet, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Gnosis and more!

If this is your first time using Frame or you’re just curious about how some of the features work, this guide will help you get up to speed.

Download

To download Frame, navigate to https://frame.sh. The page will automatically suggest the right version for you, or you can use the "View all releases" link to see downloads for other operating systems.

If you want to verify the integrity of the download, click the "View all releases" link and then use the arrow next to the Assets text to see all the downloads for the current release. The SHA-512 hashes and file sizes for each supported operating system installer are contained in the "latest-*.yml" files.

Installation varies by operating system:

• For Windows, just double-click the installer. You don't need administrative rights, though you may get a warning dialog. As long as this dialog shows that the application was signed by “Frame Labs, Inc.”, it’s fine to proceed.

• For macOS, double-clicking the .dmg file will open the normal macOS installer experience with a draggable icon to move Frame to the Applications folder. Eject the Frame installer afterwards.

• For Linux, Frame is packaged as a Snap, AppImage, tarball, and .deb package. Installation steps vary by distribution and which packaging method you choose.

  • For Snaps, use the following command. This will require root privileges:

    snap install --dangerous <frame_installer.snap>

  • For the AppImage, change the file to executable and then simply run it:

    $ chmod 750 <frame-x.x.x.AppImage>
    $ ./<frame-x.x.x.AppImage>
    

  • For debian-based distributions, the .deb file can be used with apt as normal:

    sudo apt install ./frame-x.x.x.deb

  • For the tarball, untar it and run the frame binary:

  $ tar xf <frame_package.tgz>
  $ cd frame-x.x.x
  $ ./frame
