TunnelIQ is in a closed friendly pilot. Type your tester access code below and we'll start the download. No code yet? Email [email protected] with the project name and team size.

Mac, Linux, iOS, Android visitors: the desktop installer is Windows-only. Once a colleague installs TunnelIQ on a Windows site-PC they'll share a TIQ-XXXXXX pairing code. Use that at tunnel-iq.com/join to connect from any phone.

Or skip the install entirely

Just want to look around before you commit a laptop? The staging environment runs the full TunnelIQ backend in the cloud — no install, no pairing code, just open it in any browser on any device. Pre-seeded test accounts let you walk through the planner, constraint board, and TBM hub.

Install on the laptop

Four steps. Five minutes.

The first-run wizard guides the rest. If anything looks off, the app shows what to do — never a stack trace.

  1. Download TunnelIQ-Setup.zip using the verified link above.
  2. Unblock the zip first (this is what skips the SmartScreen warning): right-click TunnelIQ-Setup.zip → Properties → near the bottom, tick Unblock → Apply → OK. Skipping this step still works, but you'll need to click More info → Run anyway when SmartScreen warns you.
  3. Extract the zip — right-click TunnelIQ-Setup.zip → Extract All…, accept the default folder, click Extract. You'll get a folder containing Install TunnelIQ.cmd, TunnelIQ.exe, and a few helper files. Important: don't double-click Install TunnelIQ.cmd from inside the zip preview window — Windows only extracts the one file you clicked, so the install will fail. Always extract first, then run from the extracted folder.
  4. Double-click Install TunnelIQ.cmd in the extracted folder. It installs to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\TunnelIQ (no admin needed), drops a TunnelIQ icon on your Desktop and Start Menu, registers an entry in Settings → Apps for clean uninstall, and launches the app. The first-run wizard opens automatically — create your account, click Connect to mobile devices. The app generates a six-character pairing code like TIQ-7XQ94F.
  5. Share the pairing code with your crew. They open tunnel-iq.com/join on their phone, type the code, follow the on-screen instructions to Add to Home Screen, and they're in.

Future launches: just click the TunnelIQ Desktop icon. To remove: Settings → Apps, search "TunnelIQ", click Uninstall — or use Start Menu → TunnelIQ → Uninstall TunnelIQ.

Once installed, you're done

Bug fixes and new features arrive automatically. The app checks for signed updates from a pinned vendor URL — when one is available, an admin sees a banner with release notes and one click to apply. Your local data is backed up before any swap, and updates are Ed25519-verified before they touch the disk. You will never need to re-download or re-install.

Install on a phone

Add to Home Screen — looks native.

TunnelIQ runs in any modern phone browser, but it's better as a PWA: home-screen icon, no browser chrome, remembers the URL so workers don't have to retype.

iPhone — Safari

  1. Open the TunnelIQ URL in Safari (not Chrome).
  2. Tap the Share button.
  3. Scroll and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. Confirm. The TunnelIQ icon appears.

Android — Chrome

  1. Open the TunnelIQ URL in Chrome.
  2. Tap the ⋮ menu (top right).
  3. Tap Install app or Add to Home screen.
  4. Confirm. The icon lands in the launcher.

Android — Edge / Firefox

  1. Open the TunnelIQ URL in your browser.
  2. Open the menu (⋮ or ≡).
  3. Look for Add to Home screen or Install.
  4. Confirm. The icon is added.

The PWA opens in standalone mode (no browser bar). Camera, microphone and geolocation work over HTTPS — for a LAN-only trial, the laptop auto-issues a self-signed cert; tap Visit anyway once on each phone to accept it.
