For any software business, intellectual property is key, and protecting it is critical.  We don't sell snake oil and tell you software can be impenetrable, instead we offer the best possible case:  code protection designed such that, even with full knowledge of how it works, we would hate to have to crack it ourselves.  Read about the details.

Windows Defender and OSX Gatekeeper now make unsigned apps a major chore for the user.  Getting certificates is easy but signing for a target OS has always been a complicated hassle.   JWrapper takes the pain away and handles signing for you automatically as part of your build, no matter what OS you are using.

Provide just one simple PNG for your icon and splash image, and JWrapper will handle the rest.  Windows ICO files? MacOS ICNS files? Windows Elevation?  Mac DMG?  Whatever is needed for to get you the best and most typical experience possible for that platform, JWrapper has it covered.

If your users can update your app just by downloading files from your website, why can't your app?  JWrapper will check your website for new versions, install them, even give them a quick test run, and let them run any update code you want, all while the user is launching your app.

JWrapper gives your users options.  If they are on your website they can just grab a ~1MB native app file and get set up in no time.  If you are shipping your app to them offline then you can bundle the no-download-necessary offline installer.

With every build JWrapper gives you all you need to just upload your files, and get on with developing.  A custom JavaScript downloader you can embed in any page and automated updates picked up from your normal website... it's all waiting in your build folder.

Installing as a service on Windows is a time consuming headache of mixed native and Java code.  Installing as a daemon on Linux and Mac means 3x that headache and all require close understanding of the OS. JWrapper makes it as simple as a quick call into an API.

One build file for everyone to work from and maintain.  Developers can use Windows, Mac or Linux but produce native, branded, signed apps for all of Windows, Mac and Linux regardless. 

Java is a very powerful language, so why learn a new, much less powerful one just for your installer?  JWrapper gives you a great typical install experience, but if you want to expand or customise it, you can write simple Java extension classes and use our installer APIs to do whatever you want.

Some apps are never meant to be installed.  Whether your user expects your app to run and then disappear without trace, or set up shortcuts and start menu entries, you can choose which with the flick of a switch.

Oracle seems content with shipping unwanted software (1) and breaking APIs (2) and then pushing an update that gives installed apps (and their developers) headaches.  If JWrapper picks up a system JRE, it must pass tests you set and then gets copied so that it can't be broken in the future.

If your app is a bundle rather than a single app JWrapper lets you easily configure 'virtual' apps with their own icons and it delivers them in an appropriate way.  Windows and Linux users get a shortcut for each app.  OSX users get a chooser to pick which to launch.

In an ideal world, all networks would allow unfettered direct access and your toast would always fall butter-side-up.  Absent that, JWrapper can at least fix your proxy issues by using the best proxy-detection methods for each OS and automatically setting up your apps networking.

Your brand comes first and foremost, JWrapper's doesn't even get a back seat.  Set your own app icons and splash screen so users see only your branding.
​

JWrapper makes supporting languages easy.  Specify the languages you support and then asks the user to pick a language when they install.  You app can check the current language and even pop up the same chooser to let the user change languages.

Protect your reputation and ensure your code is delivered exactly as you produced it.  With the flick of a switch JWrapper will create a 100% private 4096-bit RSA key and use it to sign all your builds, ensuring that you have total control over your installations.
