Shadow on Raspberry Pi OS is a new platform for our unified client, adapted to the arm64 architecture running Linux.
With its small size, multiple I/Os, and low cost, Raspberry is the perfect solution for a TV or small Desktop PC.
While Raspberry delivers less power than a modern PC, we’re launching the first version with lower acceptance criteria, and a few less supported features that we aim to unlock through further developments.

Automatic Installation

The easiest way to install Shadow on Raspberry Pi is to download and install the .deb package (64-bit), either through the graphical software center if it's available, or through the command line.

Installing the .deb package will automatically install the apt repository and signing key to enable auto-updating using the system's package manager.

Step 1: Downloading the .deb package

You can download the package by clicking on the link below:

https://update.shadow.tech/launcher/prod/linux/rpi/shadow-arm64.deb

Step 2: Install the application

Use one of the following two methods:

• Right-click on the .deb file and use the package manager to install it via the visual interface.
• Or open the terminal, navigate to the download folder where the .deb is located (using the cd command) and type:
  sudo apt install ./shadow-prod.deb
  
  

Step 3: Launch Shadow

You can launch Shadow from the Raspberry Menu on the top-left corner, in the Photo/Video section.

Manual Installation

Alternatively, the repository and key can also be installed manually with the following script:

sudo apt-get install wget gpg

wget -qO- http://repository.shadow.tech/shadow_signing.key | gpg --dearmor > packages.shadowapp.gpg

sudo install -o root -g root -m 644 packages.shadowapp.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/

rm -f packages.shadowapp.gpg

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=arm64] http://repository.shadow.tech/prod bullseye main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/shadow-prod.list'

Then update the package cache and install the package using:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install shadow-prod
