Install

Windows

1. Download myalgo-2.5.1.exe from the table above.
2. Run the installer.
3. Launch MyAlgo Wallet from the Start menu.

If Windows SmartScreen shows an unknown-publisher warning, click More info → Run anyway. The installer is signed; SmartScreen reputation builds with download volume over time.

macOS

1. Download myalgo-2.5.1.dmg.
2. Open the .dmg and drag MyAlgo Wallet into Applications.
3. On first launch, if Gatekeeper blocks the app ("cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified"), clear the quarantine attribute:

xattr -cr /Applications/MyAlgo\ Wallet.app

Then open the app again from Applications.

Linux

1. Download myalgo-2.5.1.zip and extract it.

Debian/Ubuntu (.deb):

sudo apt install ./myalgo-2.5.1.deb

AppImage (any distro):

chmod +x MyAlgo-Wallet-2.5.1.AppImage
./MyAlgo-Wallet-2.5.1.AppImage

If the AppImage fails to launch with a sandbox error, run with sandboxing disabled:

./MyAlgo-Wallet-2.5.1.AppImage --no-sandbox

Networks

MyAlgo Wallet connects to Algorand mainnet by default. [VERIFY — confirm whether the desktop app exposes an in-app mainnet/testnet switch, or whether testnet access is developer-only via the WalletConnect dApp integration path.]

Where things live

Data	Location
Private keys	OS credential store — Windows Credential Vault, macOS Keychain, Linux Secret Service (libsecret)
App config	[VERIFY — e.g. %APPDATA%\MyAlgo Wallet\ on Windows, ~/Library/Application Support/MyAlgo Wallet/ on macOS, ~/.config/MyAlgo Wallet/ on Linux]
Logs	[VERIFY — confirm log directory per platform]
Backups	[VERIFY — confirm if the app writes any local backup files, or whether seed-phrase backup is entirely user-managed offline]

---

Security

MyAlgo cannot recover a lost seed phrase — there is no account, no password reset, and no server-side backup. The seed phrase is shown once during wallet creation; storing it securely offline afterward is the user's responsibility. MyAlgo never sees, transmits, or has any way to retrieve it.

Transaction signing happens entirely within the application's process memory; unsigned transactions never leave the device. The application transmits no identifying telemetry.
