Flow Launcher FAQ
Is Flow Launcher safe to download from here?
We host no installers. Every download button goes to the original source, and the checks below were run on those files.
On 2026-11-05 we downloaded the latest installer from those sources and re-computed the SHA-256: it matches the package catalog’s value. Code signatures: 0 valid, 1 not signed.
VirusTotal: none of its 69 security engines flagged the scanned file.
Our rating: Safe. No check is a guarantee. See the security details above and our Security and Trust Center. Publisher’s website: Flow Launcher’s official website.
Does Flow Launcher update itself after I install an old version?
We cannot say for certain. We do not have data on whether Flow Launcher updates itself, and many apps check for updates and offer to install them. Look for an update setting in Flow Launcher (see Flow Launcher’s documentation) before you rely on an older version.
Does Flow Launcher cost anything?
No. Flow Launcher is free and open source (license: MIT).
Which versions of Flow Launcher are listed here, and how far back?
We list 44 versions, from 1.7.2 up to 2.1.4. This page shows the newest 20; the JSON and Markdown files for this app list all 44.
Where do the download links go?
