Install and sign in

There is no build for Intel Macs, for Windows on x64 processors or for Linux. Disk space, memory and what was measured are on the system requirements page.

Liminal is in closed beta. Leave your email on the home page; when a place opens up you receive an invite code and create an account with it on the site. Signing up with the address the invite was sent to needs no confirmation; any other address is confirmed with a code from a letter, which works for 24 hours.

If a teammate invited you to their team, the link in that letter takes the place of an invite code.

Sign in on the site and open the download page: it lists the released build for each system with its version and date.

After that the app keeps itself current — see Updates.

The app starts with the Sign In to Liminal sheet over an empty window; the window stays locked until you sign in. There are two ways:

In the app

Type your Email and Password and press Sign In.

Use Browser

The sign-in page of the site opens in your usual browser. Sign in there and confirm that you want to continue to the app; the sheet reads Finish Signing In in Your Browser and updates by itself. It waits 30 minutes, and Cancel brings the form back.

No account yet? Create Account opens the sign-up page of the site. There is no sign-up form inside the app.

• Two-factor code. If two-factor authentication is on, the sheet asks for it next: Enter Your Two-Factor Code. A code from your authenticator app works, and so does a backup code.
• Unconfirmed email. Confirm Your Email appears with the button Open Confirmation Page. Confirm the address on the site and the app continues by itself; it keeps checking for 10 minutes.
• Session ended. Now and then the app asks you to Sign In Again; your email is already filled in, and your profiles are where you left them.

The first sign-in is followed by a short setup — the steps below for a new account of your own, fewer for someone invited into a team. Skip Setup leaves all of it for later, and nothing in it is final — every choice is also in the app’s settings.

Welcome to Liminal

An optional question about what you will use Liminal for.

Bring Your Work with You

Accounts with cookies can be imported here. Bringing profiles in from a regular browser or from another anti-detect browser is marked Coming later and does not work yet.

Connections

On Pro and Team each new profile gets a built-in proxy automatically; here you can also add your own proxies and VPN configurations.

Basics

Theme, App language and Launch at login.

Afterwards a Getting Started card sits above the main area with four things to try: Add a connection, Create your profiles, Open a profile and Check for leaks. Hide puts it away; it comes back from the account menu at the foot of the sidebar.

Open Settings from the account menu at the foot of the sidebar, then General.

App language

English, Русский or Use device setting. A change takes effect after a restart: press Restart, and the profiles that were open are opened again.

Theme

Use Device Setting, Light or Dark.

Launch at login

Start Liminal when you sign in to the computer. Shown on systems that support it.

Confirm before quitting

Ask before quitting — only while profiles are running.

Open the account menu at the foot of the sidebar and choose Sign Out, or go to Settings › Account. Running profiles are closed first. Signing out removes nothing: the profiles of this computer stay on it and are there when you sign in again.
