### Simplified FreeTube Installation for Apple Silicon
[](https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube "https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube")
#### FreeTube’s Homebrew Tap for Apple Silicon
Install a native Apple Silicon build of FreeTube with this Homebrew Tap.
If you install FreeTube via Homebrew without this tap, you get an _Intel-native build_ that requires Rosetta 2 in order to run on Apple Silicon.
(Intel Mac users, [see below](#intel-section).)
#### Quick Installation on Apple Silicon
1. Ensure [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) is installed.
1. If you already installed FreeTube: uninstall it.
If installed from the main Homebrew cask (not this tap):
```bash
# Uninstall the cask, while keeping your settings.
brew uninstall freetube
```
1. Install FreeTube with a single command:
```bash
brew install --no-quarantine pikachuexe/freetube/pikachuexe-freetube
```
Or, if you prefer step-by-step:
```bash
# Add the FreeTube tap (required only once).
brew tap pikachuexe/freetube
# Install FreeTube from the tap.
brew install --no-quarantine pikachuexe-freetube
```
#### About `--no-quarantine`
- **Why use it?**
The `--no-quarantine` option bypasses Gatekeeper, enabling you to run FreeTube while saving its developers the time and expense of having to register with Apple, sign the software and get it notarized by Apple.
- **About releases:**
This repository has Apple Silicon-native FreeTube builds intended for installation with Homebrew. While direct downloads are discouraged, if you opt for that method, you’ll need to remove the Gatekeeper quarantine yourself for the app to run on your Apple Silicon Mac:
```bash
# Replace with the actual path to your downloaded file.
/usr/bin/xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine
```
#### Quick Installation on Intel Macs
1. Ensure [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) is installed.
1. Use Homebrew without this tap to install FreeTube:
```bash
brew install freetube
```
#### Homebrew documentation
For more details about using Homebrew, check [Homebrew’s documentation](https://docs.brew.sh) or run `brew help` or `man brew`.
