We’ve noted this as a feature request. We will update the forums as soon as we have support.

I would like to add that with Pine64 devices getting out there, there is a growing need for ARM64 builds for other platforms as well.

Hmm. Still waiting for a RockPi4/Debian version. Just tried rclone (earlier version 1.35) and this enables a google drive to be locally mounted if you need a temporary fix.

Hello,
Any update in this topic? I was trying to install insync-headless and still get missing dependency libc6:amd64, so for sure I have not arm64 package (I’m using Ubuntu 20.04)

Hi @Pawel_B,

I will forward this to our engineers to see how we can move forward with the requests on ARM64 support as well as the issue on the missing dependency you mentioned.

Would you like to try out a test build when that’s available? :slight_smile:

Hello! For those of you looking for ARM64 support, please check this out: ARM64 Headless test build

Note that this is exclusively for Insync 3 Headless (which also offers a different licensing model than our Desktop/GUI version).

Feel free to post your user experience on that ARM64 Headless thread :slight_smile:

Hello! Are there any news regarding a Linux arm64 version?

I’ll also back this and say how annoying I find arm :smiley:

I have Windows (amd64) and Macos (arm64) and am happily running Insync on both. I have Linux VMs running on both of them. Linux (amd64) works fine with Insync.

But no progress on Linux (arm64) for two years? That test build doesn’t work, not surprising since I’m sure the API has evolved since then.

Insync markets itself as running on all major platforms - it’s the primary reason I bought it.

Hello @mlsquires! I understand your sentiments regarding the current limitations on Linux. I will raise this with our Linux Team as other users have also followed up in the past few months.

Thank you for using your voice to express and provide feedback!! This helps us pursue the right direction for our community. I truly appreciate users like you!

Hola, primero de todo felicitar por el gran trabajo que habeis hecho. Tengo que reconocer que funciona mucho mejor que las aplicaciones oficiales de onedrive y drive. Sobretodo agradezco el desarrollo en linux.

Dado que se ha convertido en mi aplicacion preferida para sincronizar archivos, tengo que sumarme a la peticion de una version para arm64 que se pueda instalar en servidores.

De nuevo, gracias por vuestro gran trabajo.

So we are at 3 years since the issue was raised here and not a peep. One reason I bought Insync was the multi-cloud and multi-platform capabilities. I’m doing more of my work on the Linux VM on my MacBook Pro M2.

Thank you for bumping this thread and my apologies for not having an update regarding this feature request.

Our dev team is currently prioritizing major sync bugs among other Insync improvements, but I will follow up where ARM support is in our timeline to cater to users like everyone in this Forums post.
