Download Lantern for Windows, MacOS, or Linux directly from GitHub.

Beta testers and early adopters of new releases may see a precautionary malware warning when installing. This message can be safely ignored.

Downloading Lantern for iOS requires an AppleID based in an unrestricted country or region. If you currently have a valid payment method with a billing address in an unrestricted location, you may simply follow Apple instructions for updating your AppleID location to that country or region. Otherwise, it will be necessary to create an alternate AppleID:

1. Setup New AppleID in Unrestricted Country or Region
2. Sign out of iCloud (Data and funds may not transfer to the new account.)
3. Create a new account
4. Verify with unlinked email
5. Choose an unrestricted country
