Hello,
The OONI team is thrilled to announce the public launch of the new OONI Probe desktop app for Windows and macOS!

We are super excited because this is the first time that we're officially supporting Windows, and it's the first time that we're releasing a native OONI Probe desktop app.
Along with the new OONI Probe desktop app, we're excited to release 2 new tests:
1. Tor test (https://ooni.org/nettest/tor/) => For measuring the blocking of Tor (https://www.torproject.org/)
2. Psiphon test (https://ooni.org/nettest/psiphon/) => For measuring the blocking of the Psiphon app (https://psiphon.ca/)
With these new tests, measuring the blocking of circumvention tools becomes easier than ever before!
The new OONI Probe desktop app also allows for more comprehensive website testing (in comparison to the OONI Probe mobile app), as you can test more than 1,000 websites in one run!
Thanks to the amazing Localization Lab community, the new OONI Probe desktop app is translated into 12 languages: Chinese, Russian, Spanish, French, Thai, Turkish, Portuguese, Italian, Greek, Slovak, Catalan, and German. The Arabic and Farsi translations will also be released soon!
Warm thanks to the OTF for supporting the development of the OONI Probe desktop app.
Special thanks to community members for testing and translating the new OONI Probe desktop app, and for sharing extremely helpful feedback!
We hope you all find the new OONI Probe desktop app useful!
