Photos and our new iOS app. Machines. Multiple users. MCP server for AI agents. Storage Manager with FailSafe (RAID). Support for NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel GPUs. Custom app folders. And a new Mac app.

Every one of these features deserves its own story, and we’ll tell them properly on September 22. But if you’d rather not wait you can try it today on your existing Umbrel:

Make sure you’ve updated to umbrelOS 1.7.4, and just enroll in the beta at Settings > Advanced > umbrelOS Beta Program.

See you on September 22.

Building complex machines is fine, but humans aren't. We thrive on simple, ancestral inputs like whole animal foods, not complex systems. Stop overcomplicating what evolution already solved.

Have been very impressed with umbrel’s customer support over the years

I installed the new Umbrel OS 2.0 today and I love it!

Hello everyone, I noticed that the MCP connector for AI does not allow the custom choice of the path, there are only defined folders, it would be nice to be able to choose folders manually!

Well yeah, that's like asking for the Britannic, Lusitania or Costa Concordia movies to James Cameron, which he isn't interested in doing them so! Speaking of future versions, I never saw that people wanted that currently unconfirmed version of umbrelOS.

Introducing Umbrel App Store agent skills.

Ask Claude Code/Codex: "See getumbrel/umbrel-apps repo and build (or test/update/submit) an Umbrel app".

After approving 350+ apps and 5,000+ app updates, we've condensed all those learnings into 4 hyper-focused agent skills right in our app store repo.

So yeah, that's the entire barrier to building high-quality self-hosted apps now. 🫡

done. https://github.com/getumbrel/umbrel-apps/pull/5801

You can now connect two Umbrels in different locations and back one up to the other.

This already worked on the same network, but the latest Tailscale update in the Umbrel App Store removes the "same network" part. You can now mount folders from one Umbrel into another in Files, even across the world, and use that as a backup location.

So one Umbrel at home, one at your parents' place, and tada - you now have real offsite backups, fully self-hosted, on hardware you own.

You asked, and it's here!

It requires Tailscale?

Could we use NostrVPN?

That's pretty sick. Great work. There's really only one thing holding me back from going on a buying spree and it's that those mini PCs don't come with Coreboot so Intel ME can be deactivated. I'd shill the shit out of your devices if that would be the case. Instead I still sit on the fence.

Oof, we might need a new "Nostr" category in the App Store soon.

Two new Nostr apps just dropped:

- Gupt: Self-hosted, end-to-end encrypted messenger powered by Nostr. No phone number, no email, no account. Like Signal/Telegram, but your keys and messages are actually yours.

- DTAN Server: A torrent network with no central website. File sharing that runs over Nostr and peer-to-peer instead of one site everyone depends on (and that can vanish overnight).

The Pirate Bay taught us a long time ago that having a centralized directory for torrents is a central point of failure that can fall victim to DMCA.

Paperclip is now live on the Umbrel App Store!

It lets you run a whole team of AI agents like a company, right on your home server.

Create agents with API keys, or login with your Codex/Claude Code subscription, or even onboard your existing OpenClaw/Hermes agent as an employee in your company!

In what way does it make my home server better?

Why would I put some agents near my node ?
