Installing the client app

The client app enables you to simulate user interactions and improves the success rate of the extension. Follow the instructions from the extension's options to download and install the client app on Windows, Linux and macOS, or get the app from this repository.

Windows

Run the downloaded installer by double-clicking on it and follow the instructions from the browser window that appears to complete the installation.

Linux

The downloaded installer must be made executable before running it. Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where the installer is located, then set the executable bit for the file.

chmod +x buster-client-setup-*

Run the installer by double-clicking on it, or execute it from the terminal.

./buster-client-setup-*

Follow the instructions from the browser window that appears to complete the installation.

The client app is not compatible with browsers that were installed using Snap or Flatpak.

Mouse movements are not supported on Wayland, though keyboard navigation can be enabled from the extension's options.

macOS

The downloaded installer must be made executable before running it. Open the Terminal app and navigate to the directory where the installer is located (cd ~/Downloads), then set the executable bit for the file.

chmod +x buster-client-setup-*

The installer has not been notarized, so Gatekeeper may prevent it from running. Remove the quarantine attribute from the installer to bypass the Gatekeeper check.

sudo xattr -d com.apple.quarantine buster-client-setup-*

Run the installer by double-clicking on it in Finder, or execute it from Terminal.

./buster-client-setup-*

Follow the instructions from the browser window that appears to complete the installation.

Go to System Settings > Privacy & Security > Privacy > Accessibility, and allow buster-client to control your computer in order to enable the client app to control your mouse and keyboard.
