About Raspberry Pi Imager
Raspberry Pi Imager is a user-friendly tool for creating bootable media for Raspberry Pi devices. Versions are provided for Windows, macOS and Ubuntu, and it is also available on Raspberry Pi OS itself.
It helps anyone setting up a Raspberry Pi. The app can be pointed at a custom image repository, so you can offer your own images through it, and it collects anonymous usage statistics by default that you can switch off in App Options.
