Have you selected the XAS (checkbox) in the `Properties` in the `Basic settings`? The plugin’s tab only show when the property is selected to be calculated.

@Xing Just for my curiosity, are all the QeApp plugins installed automatically?

Currently, the XAS and XPS plugins are included automatically.

Could you share a screenshot of the full `Basic settings` tab?

Hi, you are using an old version which don’t have XAS. Try to use the latest version,

```auto
aiidalab-launch profile add --image ghcr.io/aiidalab/qe:v24.10.0a7 qeapp

```

after creating the profile,

```auto
aiidalab-launch start -p qeapp

```

Hi Xing,  
I’m using Quantum Mobile version = 23.10.0 / Operating System = Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS in virtual box.  
I tried to install aiidalab-launch via apt install with no success.  
Is there another way to upgrade the app?

Hi, I’m not the developer. But I have the same issue before.  
What I did was I clicked the AiidaLab logo in the top of Jupyter Notebook.  
Then it brought me to the page which have Appstore icon.

 ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/aiida/original/1X/56b819ba87dded1be8454445efc0733342db1e37.png)

From there I just follow the tutorial in the webpage to install the latest app.  
Hope this help…

You need to use `pip` or `pipx`:

```auto
pip install aiidalab-launch

```

please refer to the [docs](https://aiidalab-qe.readthedocs.io/installation/access_aiidalab/container.html#aiidalab-launch) for the details.

Thanks @hlim12, for the solution!

Hi @danielhollas , sorry, I think I missed your message. No, only bands, pdos, xps and xas are included in the app by default. But, the app provides a plugin management page to install others (e.g., IR/Raman, Bader charge, etc.).
