Description FaceGoo is a fun photo app that allows you to stretch, pinch and twist your photos in crazy ways, making your friends look silly or your enemies look fat. You can even add funny stickers to your photos to make them even more outrageous. Check it out, and you'll be amazed at how much fun it is to play with FaceGoo! Image source: Cult of Mac. Awareness is a free app for Mac and Windows that gets you to take regular breaks without getting in the way. It’s super inconspicuous as far as these apps go; it sits on your menu bar while you go about your business, quietly counting the minutes until your next small break.

Downloads
The latest official installers and portable versions for macOS, Windows, Linux and FreeBSD can be found at Github Releases page.
Following sections link some individual files for a simplicity.
macOS
Download the DMG file.
You can also install Stretchly with Homebrew by running brew update && brew cask install stretchly. When upgrading, run brew update && brew upgrade --cask. Don't forget to Quit Stretchly, first.
Stretchly is not signed (due to its costs) so you will need to use this workaround for the first run: Open a Mac app from an unidentified developer.
Windows
Download the web or offline installer.
Download Windows To Mac
You can also install Stretchly with Chocolatey by running the following command from the command line or from PowerShell: choco install stretchly. Upgrade with choco upgrade stretchly.
Stretchly is also available in Microsoft's winget.
You can install Stretchly for all users silently by running this as administrator: installer.exe /S /allusers.
Linux/BSD/Portable
For portable versions and for Linux/BSD installers, head to Github Releases page. The most widely used distributions should be covered.
Linux note
Please see https://electron.atom.io/docs/api/tray/ for Electron's Tray Linux specifics. Having libappindicator1 installed should be enough for Stretchly.
For Natural breaks, you might need some packages too (libxss-dev).
If Stretchly is not starting, you might need to run sudo sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1. Read more here. Depending on your distro, you probably want to do something similar to this, so the settings are kept after reboot: Add kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1 to /etc/sysctl.d/00-local-userns.conf and reboot.
Running from source
Download Mac Apps On Windows
To run Stretchly from source you will need Node.js, ideally the one specified in package.json. Clone the repo, run npm install and then simply run npm start to start Stretchly.
Custom installer
You can create a custom installer by running npm run pack or npm run dist after npm install --no-save.
