Haven is a privacy-focused mobile application that allows you to turn your Android phone into a surveillance sensor. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Haven on Arch Linux.
Before we start the installation process, we need to install some dependencies.
You can install the required dependencies by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S git jdk8-openjdk gradle
Now we need to clone the Haven repository. Open a terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/guardianproject/haven.git
This command will clone the Haven repository on your Arch Linux system.
Once you have cloned the Haven repository, navigate to the repository directory using the following command:
cd haven/
Now, run the following command to build Haven:
./gradlew assembleRelease
This command will compile Haven and create an APK file in the app/build/outputs/apk/release directory.
To install Haven, we need to have an Android emulator or an Android phone connected to our Arch Linux system.
If you have an Android emulator installed on your Arch Linux system, you can install Haven by running the following command:
adb install app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk
If you have an Android phone connected to your Arch Linux system, you can install Haven by enabling USB debugging on your phone and running the following command:
adb install app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk
Once the installation process is complete, you can launch Haven from your Android phone's app drawer.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Haven on your Arch Linux system. You can now use Haven to turn your Android phone into a surveillance sensor and monitor your surroundings remotely.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
