Install

Official download and store links are maintained on betterseqta.org/download. Use that page for the latest builds and platform-specific installers.

Browsers (quick reference)

  • Chromium-based (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, and similar): install from the Chrome Web Store or equivalent channel linked on the download page.
  • Firefox: the extension is published on Mozilla Add-ons.
  • Safari: described upstream as experimental; not recommended for general use. Availability may require building from source; see the BetterSEQTA+ repository for current notes.

Desktop and mobile

DesQTA and other desktop or Android options, when available, are listed on betterseqta.org alongside the browser extensions.

After installing

  1. Open SEQTA Learn in the browser where you installed the extension.
  2. Open the extension’s options or popup if prompted to complete setup.
  3. Sign in to SEQTA as usual; BetterSEQTA+ enhances pages after they load.

If something fails, see Troubleshooting.
