Get Draftbox for Desktop
The full Draftbox experience as a native desktop app. Same cloud sync, same real-time collaboration — now with system tray, native notifications, and automatic updates.
macOS build requires a Mac. Linux builds (.deb / .AppImage) available on the releases page.
System Tray
Minimize to tray, quick show, and quit from the system tray icon. Close the window without losing your session.
Auto-Update
Updates are downloaded and verified automatically. No manual downloads needed — just restart when prompted.
Native Notifications
OS-level notifications for mentions, comments, and updates — even when the app is minimized to tray.
How it works
The desktop app is a native wrapper around the Draftbox cloud application. It connects to the same backend, syncs the same data, and works with the same real-time collaboration — just in a native window instead of a browser tab.
Download and install the app for your platform.
Sign in with your existing Draftbox account — or create a new one.
All your workspaces, drafts, and integrations are right there — same as the web app.
