Install the Mera Work desktop app

Pick your computer for the steps. They take a few minutes, and you sign in with the account your employer set up for you.

Install on your computer

Windows, Mac and Linux. The same steps work for the interactive builds.

Download the installer

Open the download page and choose the Windows installer (.exe).
Run the installer

Double click the file you downloaded and let the setup finish.
Sign in

Enter the email and password created when you were onboarded, then select Login.
Keep working

Mera Work starts straight away. You can minimise it, and it stays in the hidden icons area of the taskbar.

IT teams rolling out to many computers can deploy the MSI package through their existing tools. Both files are on the download page.

Download the disk image

Open the download page and choose the Mac disk image (.dmg).
Install the app

Double click the file, then drag the Mera Work app into the Applications folder.
Allow Accessibility

When macOS asks, allow Mera Work under Accessibility. This lets it see which apps and websites are in use.
Allow screen recording

Allow Screen and System Audio Recording. This is needed for screenshots and live streaming.
Allow browser access

The first time you use a browser, Mera Work asks for permission to read the addresses of the websites you visit. Allow it.
Sign in and start

Open Mera Work and sign in with your work email. Once the permissions are set, it starts tracking automatically.

Permissions live in System Settings, under Privacy and Security. If you miss a prompt, you can switch Mera Work on there at any time.

Download the package

Open the download page and choose the Debian package (.deb) for Ubuntu and Debian, or the RPM (.rpm) for RHEL, Fedora and CentOS.
Install it

Open a terminal in the folder with the file. On Ubuntu and Debian run sudo apt install ./ followed by the file name. On RHEL, Fedora and CentOS run sudo dnf install ./ followed by the file name, or sudo yum install ./ followed by the file name if dnf is not available.
Sign in

Launch the Mera Work desktop app and enter the email and password created when you were onboarded.
Check the timer

After a successful sign in, the timer starts automatically in the Current Session section.

IT teams can install the same packages from the terminal with their usual package manager.
