umbrelOS 2.0 has been living in our heads for a long time. We kept shipping knowing this was the one we were building toward.
None of this exists without this team. What an absurdly talented and relentless group of people. Genuinely feel incredibly lucky to build alongside them.
There's so much in this release. We'll go deep on all of it on September 22.
Introducing umbrelOS 2.0.
Everything you imagined your home cloud to be.
Arriving September 22. Public beta rolling out today.

Your spare computer is one USB stick away from becoming your own private cloud.
Watch @lukechilds install umbrelOS 2.0 on a NAS and an AI PC, set up FailSafe (RAID), then pull a drive out while it's running.

The idea has always been simple: your photos, files, documents, etc should all live with you. Not on "somebody else's computer." Even more so now with local LLMs and AI agents.
For a long time that was only possible if you were technical, or if you were happy dealing with crappy UX.
Today it isn't. Proud of this team beyond what I can fit in a tweet.

umbrel is really the only company out there to be building what i see is the future of personal clouds, a future where everyone owns a tiny server box that is as user friendly as the iphone and that powers not only apps but also local intelligence

This update looks dope as hell.
It’s crazy what a small team with a big vision can achieve. I’ve been using Umbrel since day 1, and I’ve watched them work their ass off to take back what Big Tech convinced us to hand over.
I’ll sum up the biggest improvements in this thread.

Your Bitcoin wallet can leak your IP/physical location while linking it to your balance/transactions.
Here's how to fix that running your own node on @umbrel. PLUS some other great apps to level up your BTC game.

it's time
Celebrating small wins is hardwired into "Achieve," our goal-tracking sample app.
We wanted the simple act of checking off a task to feel like a celebration. Instead of the standard #Material ripple, we used Styles to drop in a custom, high-contrast completion animation—specifically, a brand-colored ring that expands and fades on tap, paired with a subtle pressed-state gradient.
It lets us focus entirely on polishing those custom, rewarding micro-interactions while Material handles the foundation.

Stop renting your digital life from Apple and Google.
One box at home privately hosts your files, photos, passwords, even AI agents. And yes, it runs a full Bitcoin node.

You learn a lot about people when you see how they respond to a crisis of their own making.

The madman actually did it!!
Mandatory reading for anyone self-custodying their bitcoin (and for every hardware wallet vendor).
Like many, I've barely slept since the Coldcard incident. My mind has been racing on how to stop this from ever happening again.
I believe I've come up with a novel wallet design that solves Bitcoin's self-custody trilemma.
Live on mainnet.
