Installing
Windows
Open the installer and follow the steps. Until our Microsoft code-signing certificate is issued, Windows SmartScreen may say “Windows protected your PC”: click More info → Run anyway.
Mac
Open the downloaded .zip, then drag Jump.AFRICA Messenger into Applications. The first time, macOS may say it can't verify the developer: open System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. You only do this once.
System requirements
- Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), or macOS 11 Big Sur or later

- An internet connection to send and receive

What happens after you install
The app links itself to your account as a new device and creates its own encryption keys. It starts with an empty history — by design, nothing is copied through our servers. Your browser and other devices keep their own history.
