BUG CLICKER
BUG Clicker desktop pet installs from two public GitHub release listings, not from an app store. Windows 10/11 64-bit uses BUG-Clicker.exe. macOS 13 Ventura or newer uses BUG-Clicker-mac.dmg. macOS 12 Monterey uses a separate pre-release file, BUG-Clicker-mac12.dmg. There is no Android or iPhone build.
The Windows file is a portable exe. Double-click it once. The first launch unpacks for about 30 seconds, so do not click it again while that is happening. The Mac file is a disk image: open it and drag the app into Applications.

Which button to press
- Windows 10 or 11: the latest Windows release, file BUG-Clicker.exe.
- Mac on Ventura, Sonoma, or newer: the latest Mac release, file BUG-Clicker-mac.dmg.
- Mac on Monterey: the mac12 pre-release, not the main dmg. That build does not include the music reaction, which needs macOS 14.2 or newer.
- Windows 7: only the win7 pre-release. The developer has not described it as a supported line.
Check the file before opening
The GitHub Releases API publishes a SHA-256 digest for each asset. Compare the digest of your downloaded file with the matching asset’s digest before opening it; a match establishes file identity, not an independent safety verdict. Sizes here use MiB (1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes): the Windows exe is 113,003,591 bytes, Mac dmg 234,092,662 bytes, Win7 exe 71,123,589 bytes, and Monterey dmg 227,764,345 bytes. Download counts are a 3 November snapshot of individual files, not a user total.
Questions
Is there an official website download button?
The developer site is bugndev.web.app. The files themselves are on the two GitHub release listings linked above.
Why do the Mac dates disagree?
The developer site says 31 October 2026. The Mac release listing says 1 November 2026. Both are shown.
