Or, if you use Homebrew, you can add a tap and install Picocrypt:
```
brew tap Picocrypt/picocrypt
brew install picocrypt --no-quarantine
```
Note: the macOS app is built for Apple silicon only. If you're still on Intel, you can build from source.

## Web
A functionally limited web app is available <a href="https://picocrypt.github.io/">here</a> which allows you to encrypt and decrypt standard Picocrypt volumes (no advanced features or keyfiles) on any modern browser, including mobile devices. It's a simple, future-proof way to encrypt files that should work indefinitely due to the web's stable nature. Note that you can only encrypt single files up to a maximum size of 1 GiB.
## Mobile 🚧
An experimental project <a href="https://github.com/Picocrypt/PicoGo">PicoGo</a> is a community-developed port of Picocrypt to platforms like Android and iOS using the Fyne GUI library. Feel free to try it out, but keep in mind that it is *not* part of the official core Picocrypt project (like the platforms listed above) and thus not subject to the same scrutiny and standards that the core project is. So, **use it with caution and diligence** during its experimental phase.
