    Kioku is a tracker for anime, manga and light novels that runs on your own computer. It is made first for Windows and works on macOS and Linux too. Your library lives in a database on your computer, syncs with AniList, MyAnimeList, AniDB, Kitsu, MangaBaka, Shikimori, Simkl and Bangumi, sends to Trakt, plays your episodes in mpv or follows the player you already use, reads your manga and light novels, and lets you watch together with friends. Kioku speaks English, Slovak and Czech.

    New in 2.35.0

    Your own Kioku on the website.

    • Signed in on a Kioku server's website, you now get your own copy of the Kioku app, running on the server and connected to your account. Search, seasons, schedule, franchises, charts, stats, settings and Services are the app's own, the same as on your computer. Signed out, the website is as before. Playing files, reading folders and watch together stay in the desktop app.
    • What these apps ask AniList, and the covers and pictures they show, are kept once on the server for every member and fetched again only when old or missing.
    • Your app on the website counts days in your time zone.
    • MyAnimeList's password box that asks again and again is explained: when MyAnimeList does not take the client's return address, Services says so and shows the exact address to register, and a client ID it does not know is said as before. A client saved wrongly can be changed with Change client.
    • The server adds https:// when KIOKU_SERVER_BASE_URL lacks it. Without it, AniList and MyAnimeList sign-ins went to a broken address.
    • You shows your account's picture.
    • For server admins: the image and the archives carry the app; compose.yaml keeps the members' apps in the kioku-apps volume, the Portainer stack in /data/apps. Each running app takes about 60 MB of memory and stops after 30 minutes unused. KIOKU_SERVER_HOSTED=off turns it off.

    Download and first start

    System File First start
    Windows 10 and 11 Kioku-2.35.0-windows.zip Unzip it and double-click Kioku.exe. Kioku is not code signed, so Windows may say "Windows protected your PC": click More info, then Run anyway. Kioku adds itself to the Start menu.
    macOS 12 and later Kioku-2.35.0-macos.zip Move Kioku to Applications and open it. It is not notarized, so the first time open System Settings > Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
    Linux x64 and arm64 Kioku-2.35.0-linux-x64.tar.gz, Kioku-2.35.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz Extract and run ./kioku. Kioku adds itself to the application menu.
    Browser extension Kioku-2.35.0-extension-chromium.zip, Kioku-2.35.0-extension-firefox.zip Chromium-based browsers: unzip, open the extensions page, turn on Developer mode and choose Load unpacked. Firefox: about:debugging > This Firefox > Load Temporary Add-on (Developer Edition and Nightly can keep it for good).
    Kioku server (Linux x64 and arm64) Kioku-server-2.35.0-linux-x64.tar.gz, Kioku-server-2.35.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz For your own Kioku server with docker or podman: curl -fsSL https://git.toxik.space/Toxuki/kioku/raw/branch/main/deploy/install.sh | bash -s -- --domain your.domain, or extract the archive and run ./kioku.sh install --domain your.domain. Its README.md covers Nginx Proxy Manager, the firewall, updates and backups.

    SHA256SUMS lists the checksums of every file. Kioku opens in a window of its own (WebView2 on Windows; on Linux WebKitGTK, or a Chromium-based browser's app window with NVIDIA graphics or without WebKitGTK; the default browser as a last resort). To connect AniList, open Services, choose Connect on AniList and approve: nothing else to set up. The first sync is always a preview that changes nothing until you apply it.

    To play episodes in Kioku's own player, install mpv; or keep the player you have and let Kioku follow it. Everything else Kioku needs comes with it or installs itself.

    Everything Kioku does and good to know: the full notes. Earlier releases: all notes.
