 ### Snappy
-**Attention:** *The Snap package currently does **not run on Wayland** as the Snap sandbox does not allow Peek to access any available screen recording capabilities (see [issue #245](https://github.com/phw/peek/issues/245)). Please use X11 instead or use one of the other installation options such as Flatpak, PPA, AppImage or from source.*

-Peek can be installed on all distributions supporting [snappy](https://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install).
-To install, either install the GNOME content snap (gnome-3-26-1604) and the Peek snap from your software center (if the software center supports snappy) or install via command line:
-
-    sudo snap install gnome-3-26-1604
-    sudo snap install peek
-
-Once installed you can run Peek via its application icon in your desktop
-environment or from command line:
-
-    snap run peek
-
-In case it fails to start with the message `You need to connect this snap to the gnome platform snap`
-do the following command via command-line:
-
-    sudo snap connect peek:gnome-3-26-1604 gnome-3-26-1604:gnome-3-26-1604
-
-Snaps should automatically update in the background. If this is not happening
-you can update Peek manually to the latest version:
-
-    sudo snap refresh peek
-
-To test the latest development version install Peek from the edge channel:
-
-    sudo snap install peek --edge
