+
+# Synology
+
+:::warning
+Third-party installation methods are maintained by the community. The Seerr team is not responsible for these packages.
+:::
+
+:::warning
+This method is not recommended for most users. It is intended for advanced users who are using Synology NAS.
+:::
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Synology NAS running **DSM 7.2** or later
+- 64-bit architecture (x86_64 or ARMv8)
+- [SynoCommunity package source](https://synocommunity.com/) added to Package Center
+
+## Adding the SynoCommunity Package Source
+
+If you haven't already added SynoCommunity to your Package Center:
+
+1. Open **Package Center** in DSM
+2. Click **Settings** in the top-right corner
+3. Go to the **Package Sources** tab
+4. Click **Add**
+5. Enter the following:
+   - **Name**: `SynoCommunity`
+   - **Location**: `https://packages.synocommunity.com`
+6. Click **OK**
+
+## Installation
+
+1. In **Package Center**, search for **Seerr**
+2. Click **Install**
+3. Follow the installation wizard prompts
+4. Package Center will automatically install any required dependencies (Node.js v22)
+
+### Access Seerr
+
+Once installed, access Seerr at:
+
+```
+http://<your-synology-ip>:5055
+```
+
+You can also click the **Open** button in Package Center or find Seerr in the DSM main menu.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Seerr's configuration files are stored at:
+
+```
+/var/packages/seerr/var/config
+```
+
+:::info
+The Seerr package runs as a dedicated service user managed by DSM. No manual permission configuration is required.
+:::
+
+## Managing the Service
+
+You can start, stop, and restart Seerr from **Package Center** → Find Seerr → Use the action buttons.
+
+## Updating
+
+When a new version is available:
+
+1. Open **Package Center**
+2. Go to **Installed** packages
+3. Find **Seerr** and click **Update** if available
+
+:::tip
+Enable automatic updates in Package Center settings to keep Seerr up to date.
+:::
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Viewing Logs
+
+Seerr logs are located at `/var/packages/seerr/var/config/logs` and can be accessed using:
+
+- **File Browser** package (recommended for most users)
+- SSH (advanced users)
+
+### Port Conflicts
+
+Seerr uses port 5055. If this port is already in use:
+
+- **Docker containers**: Remap the conflicting container to a different port
+- **Other packages**: The conflicting package will need to be uninstalled as Seerr's port cannot be changed
+
+SynoCommunity ensures there are no port conflicts with other SynoCommunity packages or official Synology packages.
+
+### Package Won't Start
+
+Ensure Node.js v22 is installed and running by checking its status in **Package Center**.
+
+## Uninstallation
+
+1. Open **Package Center**
+2. Find **Seerr** in your installed packages
+3. Click **Uninstall**
+
+:::caution
+Uninstalling will remove the application but preserve your configuration data by default. Select "Remove data" during uninstallation if you want a complete removal.
