ID Tools is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer releases, so it works with the 4.2 LTS build and any later version. If you are running an earlier release of Blender, you would need to update to at least 4.2 LTS before installing the add-on. Compatibility details are published on the Blender Extensions platform and on the developer's GitHub page, which is the best place to confirm support for the specific version of Blender you are using.
ID Tools can be installed in two ways. You can drag and drop the add-on directly into Blender, or you can download the package and install it from disk through Blender's preferences. Both methods use Blender's standard extensions system, and the download is provided as a zip package. For detailed guidance on installing from disk, Blender's own documentation covers the extensions installation process, which applies to ID Tools as it does to other extensions available on the platform.
ID Tools is distributed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. This is a widely used open-source license that governs how the add-on can be used, modified, and redistributed. Within this catalog, ID Tools is listed as free. For the exact terms and any conditions that apply, the full license text accompanies the project, and the developer's GitHub page is the authoritative source for current licensing information. Checking there is the best way to confirm the details before use.
ID Tools has its source code and issue tracking hosted on the developer's GitHub page, maintained by hisanimations. That repository is the primary reference for the project, covering the code base and any reported issues. It is also where the version history lives, with the current release being 1.2.0 from 29 August 2025. If you run into a problem or want to learn more about how the add-on is maintained, the GitHub page is the place to check.
