Download

If you are on	Download
Windows (64-bit)	LrGeniusAI-windows-x64-3.0.0-rc1.exe
macOS (Apple silicon)	LrGeniusAI-macos-arm64-3.0.0-rc1.pkg
Your own server or Docker	LrGeniusAI-plugin-docker-backend-v3.0.0-rc1.zip

Already have LrGeniusAI installed? This update changes parts that the in-Lightroom updater cannot replace on its own, so please install it with the full installer above. Your catalog, settings and everything already analysed stay as they are.

If your computer warns about the download

Both installers are downloaded rarely enough that Windows and macOS may not
recognise them yet. This is about how well known the file is, not about
anything found in it.

• Windows — if SmartScreen says "Windows protected your PC", click
  More info, then Run anyway.
• macOS — if the installer is blocked, open System Settings → Privacy &
  Security and click Open Anyway. In Terminal, xattr -d com.apple.quarantine <path to the .pkg> does the same thing.

Something not working? Please open an issue at
https://github.com/LrGenius/LrGeniusAI/issues — a description of what you did
and what happened is enough to get started.
