Frequently asked questions

Frequent crashes, no Linux support, no per-app profile switching, no open SDK, Chinese UI text leaking into English builds. Read the Amazon reviews — they describe it more vividly than we can.
Yes. The Companion app ships with first-class Linux support — Ubuntu 22.04+, Fedora 38+, and Arch. AppImage, Flatpak, .deb, and AUR packages all available. Linux is a launch target, not an afterthought.
