IntelliJ IDEA is now distributed as a single, unified product, replacing the separate Community Edition and Ultimate snaps for a simpler and more convenient experience.
From the 2025.3 release onward, the IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate snap will download the unified IntelliJ IDEA instead. You can also get the unified IntelliJ IDEA directly from https://snapcraft.io/intellij-idea.
Existing IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate users will continue to enjoy full access to all advanced features, with fallback licensing also remaining unchanged. New users can explore the full IntelliJ IDEA experience with a free 30-day Ultimate subscription trial to try all advanced tools and integrations.
Even without a subscription, IntelliJ IDEA remains fully functional for Java and Kotlin development, and free to use for both commercial and non-commercial projects.
