64-bit only
We only provide the amd64 version of the remoteit package for Debian, as Node v12 is not available for 32-bit platforms. For support of remote.it features on 32 bit Debian-based platforms, use the connectd package.
Get the latest version of Node
As with any Node.js application on Ubuntu the Node version in the Ubuntu or Debian repository is VERY old so you will have to execute this command first to add the correct repository to your system (this one is for Node.js v12)
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Download and verify the remoteit Debian amd64 package
curl -LO https://downloads.remote.it/debian/latest/remoteit_amd64.deb
md5sum remoteit_amd64.deb
