Support
Borealis is free and made in the open, and so is its support. Ask a question, report a bug or suggest an idea in one of the places below. There is no paid support and no account to sign in to.
Ask a question
- Read the answers first: the FAQ covers the common questions, and the guides walk through importing, building, printing and moving characters with screenshots.
- Ask on Discord: the Borealis Discord has channels for help, imports, bug reports and ideas. Other players and the developers answer there.
Report a bug or request a feature
Post in the #bug-reports forum on the Borealis Discord, or open an issue on GitHub. Issues on GitHub are public, so anyone can follow what happens to them.
A good report says:
- your Borealis version (bottom right of the window; on a phone, in Application Settings) and your device;
- the steps, what you expected and what happened;
- for an import problem, the file and the element. Please don't attach files of books you bought; your own homebrew is fine.
Logs help with crashes and strange behaviour. On a computer: View > Application Settings > Data files > Open logs folder. On a phone: Share logs in the same place. Look them over before you share them.
Security problems
If you found a security problem, please don't post the details in public. Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting on the Borealis repository (Security > Report a vulnerability).
Privacy
Borealis has no accounts, no analytics and no ads, and your characters stay on your device. The privacy policy lists every network request the app makes.
