### Other Linux:
Manual installation is not tested in any systems. I will update this page as soon as I have tested in any other Linux distributions.

2: Download and extract [hicolor.tar.gz](https://github.com/slgobinath/SafeEyes/releases/download/v1.0.6/hicolor.tar.gz) into `~/.icons` or `/usr/share/icons`
3: Install the dependencies: `gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1`, `python-xlib`, `python-apscheduler`, `python-gobject`
4: Start Safe Eyes using this command: `/opt/safeeyes/safeeyes/safeeyes`
Once started, Safe Eyes will copy the desktop file to `~/.config/autostart` and the configurations to `~/.config/safeeyes`. Therefore, from next time onwards, it should start with the system.

Just install and forget; Safe Eyes will take care of your eyes. To customize the preferences, go to Settings from Safe Eyes tray icon.
