Download a Jalview Desktop app installer for your platform

The recommended way to run Jalview is via the Jalview Desktop App. This is a native application that provides all the necessary components to run Jalview on your platform. When launched, the app will automatically download the latest released version of Jalview.

We don’t release Jalview Desktop Apps as frequently as Jalview. However, if your existing installation is older, then we do recommend you download and install the latest App. If in doubt, please take a look at the release notes for the latest installer release.

The latest installer version of Jalview is 2.11.5.1 released on (view release notes).
