Which platforms and languages does bibisco support?

bibisco runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS, and the interface is translated into 15 languages so you can write in your own language. A free version is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. If you write on a desktop or laptop and want to test the software before committing, the free desktop version is the entry point; if you work on a phone or tablet, bibisco is available there too, though the site only states the free version for the three desktop platforms.

Platform support at a glance

The site describes bibisco as "available on Linux, macOS, Windows, Android and iOS," so the same project can move across desktop and mobile environments rather than locking you to one device type.

Language support

bibisco is translated into 15 languages. The stated purpose is that "writers everywhere can work in their own language," so the translation covers the interface you plan, organize, and write in — not just a marketing page. The site does not list the 15 languages by name, so if your language is a deciding factor, check the language selector in the app or the docs after downloading rather than assuming from the count alone.

What this means for your setup

• Desktop-first writers (Windows, Mac, Linux): you can start with the free version, which the site explicitly offers for these three platforms.
• Mobile or tablet writers (Android, iOS): bibisco is available, but the free-version statement on the site is tied to Windows, Mac, and Linux — treat mobile pricing as something to confirm in the store listing.
• Writing in a non-English language: the 15-language translation is the relevant feature; verify your specific language is included before you build your workflow around it.
• Switching between devices: since all five platforms are supported, you can plan on desktop and draft on mobile, provided you manage your project files consistently.

How to confirm your platform and language

1. Go to bibisco.com and use the download option for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux) or your app store (Android, iOS).
2. Install and open the app.
3. Check the language settings for your language among the 15 translations.
4. On desktop, confirm whether you are running the free version or a paid one before starting a long project, since the free version is only stated for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Expected result: you end up with bibisco running in your language on a supported device, and you know which version you are using before you invest time in a full manuscript.

Common snags

• Assuming mobile is free: the site's free-version statement names only Windows, Mac, and Linux. Check the mobile store listing for current terms.
• Assuming your language is one of the 15: the count is given, not the list. Verify in-app.
• Mixing devices without a file plan: support across five platforms doesn't automatically sync projects; decide how you'll move or store your work.
