Trials can be provisioned in Australia, Canada, or the United Kingdom / Europe when preferred for data residency, organizational requirements, or to avoid moving the environment later.

Monolith Desktop

Monolith can also be used as a desktop application called Monolith Desktop. The desktop app is available for Windows and macOS.

Download the version that matches your device:

• Download Monolith Desktop for macOS Apple Silicon / ARM

• Download Monolith Desktop for macOS Intel

• Download Monolith Desktop for Windows

Tip: Most newer Macs use Apple Silicon. To check your Mac type, open Apple menu > About This Mac and look for the chip or processor listed.

Monolith Mobile

Monolith Mobile is available for iOS, iPadOS, and Android.

On tablets, Monolith provides a larger-screen experience that is closer to the full desktop/web application, without the additional browser header and controls that appear when accessing Monolith through Safari or another web browser.

On phones, Monolith Mobile is focused on mobile-friendly case and evidence workflows. The phone experience is not yet a full replacement for the Monolith web or desktop application, but it supports key workflows such as viewing case and evidence information, uploading evidence photos, adding notes, scanning evidence details, and completing chain of custody actions.

Download the version that matches your device:

• Download Monolith Mobile for Android

• Download Monolith Mobile for iOS / iPadOS

On-Premises Monolith

Organizations running Monolith on-premises connect to their organization's Monolith server rather than one of the Monolith cloud regions listed above.

Your organization should provide the URL or server information required to access the environment.

For Monolith Desktop connection details, see Monolith Desktop Setup.

Login and Authentication

After accessing the correct Monolith environment, sign in using the authentication method configured for your organization.

For standard Monolith authentication, see Login & 2FA. If your organization uses Single Sign-On, see SSO Login.
