umbrelOS 2.0 is out now. Turn any mini PC, NAS, or Raspberry Pi into your own home cloud, or get an Umbrel Home or Umbrel Pro and just plug it in. umbrelOS 2.0 is the biggest update ever shipped. It's everything a home cloud was always meant to be, redesigned from the ground up with care in every detail.

umbrelOS 2.0

Home, sweet cloud.
A new Photos app. Whole computers in a browser tab. AI agents that run your Umbrel for you. Accounts for the whole family. All completely redesigned, and on more hardware than ever.


Machines

A whole computer, in a browser tab.

Run Windows, Ubuntu, Debian, Android, and more, right inside your Umbrel. Install in one click and get the full desktop in your browser. Your AI agents can use them too, while you watch or take over anytime.


MCP server

Let AI agents manage your Umbrel.

With the new MCP server, connect Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Cursor, or any AI agent to install apps, organize files, or troubleshoot issues for you. Each gets its own token and only the access you allow.


Photos

Your photos, finally home.

Photos and videos on your Umbrel show up in the new Photos app automatically, organized by years, months, and days, with albums, favorites, Live Photos, and panoramas.


Multiple users

Now for the whole family.

Everyone gets their own account, home screen, and private home folder. Share the apps and folders you choose, and keep the rest private.


Apps

New: Umbrel for iPhone and Mac.

Your entire camera roll backs up to your Umbrel in the background, even when the app is closed. And on Mac, your Umbrel shows up right in Finder.

New UX/UI

Redesigned, down to the Dock.

New icons, a new Dock, and a fresh coat of polish on everything you touch. Plus ⌘K search that finds apps, files, photos, and settings from anywhere.

Clever angle with the photo library focus, feel like that use-case has been discussed here a few times. Self-hosting has so many uses and is too easy now... home node doomers in shambles.
