      How to Install Talkatoo

      Download and install Talkatoo on Windows or Mac.

      In this article we will go over the steps to install Talkatoo on both Windows and Mac

      Watch a video walking you through each step of the way, or if you'd prefer, scroll to read the instructions.

      Talkatoo is installed in the operating system's user folder only, so if multiple logins on the same computer are used,  you will need to install Talkatoo on each.  Find out more here.

      Updating

      Talkatoo will always attempt to keep itself up to date with the latest version.  If a new version is released, it will download in the background and the next time you restart the app, or your computer, it will load the new one.  

      To see what version you are on, you can click the 3 dots and then Support.  You can check for and install the latest updates here as well.

       

      Windows Server

      To install Talkatoo on a Windows server, you can manually install it using the standard download and install mentioned above on each user's account, or you can use the available MSI file. 

       

      If you run into any issues during the install process, don't hesitate to give our stellar support team a call, chat or email.  We're happy to work with anyone at the clinic who has time.
