Home and scene refinements
At a glance
- Improved:
Rendering: Avoid redundant GPU resizing, timeline color uploads and repeated animation allocations. Vault measures layout only when it changes.
- Improved:

Visual quality: Slow frames no longer automatically lower scene resolution or effects, and window width no longer selects rendering quality.
- Improved:
Home order: After Welcome and Your spaces: Featured, Pinned favorites, Upcoming tasks, Quick Notes, then Your collections.
- Improved:
Existing sections: Recently opened follows Your collections, My Day stays opt-in, and Achievements stays at the bottom.
- Improved:
Saved layouts: Existing section orders and visibility preferences are unchanged. Reset layout uses the new default.
- Improved:
Update Log: Same-date changes are grouped together, with original dates, feature details and links retained.
- New:
Flashy Home: Switch Home to a bold presentation with a drifting wall of your artwork, depth and motion.

Collection showcase: Play a full-screen 3D film of every entry in a collection, with an opening and a finale.
New features
Flashy Home
Customize Home now has a Presentation choice: Normal (the default) or Flashy. Flashy shows the same greeting, featured art, cover fan, sections, tasks, Quick Notes, My Day and collection links, with a moving wall of your covers, a jump bar to your collections and livelier sections.
- Your section order and visibility apply in both presentations.
- Choose what drifts on the artwork wall: automatic, whole collections, or up to 36 hand-picked entries.
- Below the stage, cards rise into view as you scroll, posters tilt toward your pointer and collection cards catch a soft light.
- With reduced motion, or animations off, Flashy stays still.
Collection showcase
Press Play next to Showcase on a collection to watch every entry, in order and regardless of search or filters, fly past in a 3D film. Entries without artwork get a title card. It never starts on its own.
- Pause, previous, next and a progress bar you can click or use with the keyboard.
- Entries keep their artwork frame on stage, ornaments included, lit like in the 3D viewer.
- Each entry lands, holds for a moment and glides off smoothly as the next one arrives.
- Keyboard: Space or K pauses, arrow keys or J and L step, Home and End jump, Esc closes. Swipe on touch screens.
- With reduced motion, animations off or no 3D support, a still slideshow you step through yourself.
Improvements
Focused scene optimizations
Version History, Admin and Vault avoid redundant rendering-buffer resizes. Vault caches layout measurements until resize, scroll, content or font changes. Version History uploads timeline colors only when they change; Admin reuses token data and Profile skips unchanged viewpoint calculations. Flashy Home batches pointer measurements and pauses looping hero effects while offscreen. Vault and Profile avoid hidden draws, and reflection render targets and Admin postprocessing passes are cleaned up on exit. Existing scene details, effects, animation cadence and reduced-motion behavior are retained, with automatic slow-frame quality reductions removed.
The new default, not a reset
Home starts with Welcome and Your spaces, followed by Featured, Pinned favorites, Upcoming tasks, Quick Notes and Your collections. Recently opened remains visible after Your collections, My Day remains opt-in, and Achievements stays last. The default applies to both Normal and Flashy Home and to Reset layout in Customize Home. Your saved arrangement, hidden sections and other preferences are preserved.
A more concise Update Log
Updates from the same calendar date are now grouped together. Their original dates, feature details and links are retained, and previous release links still open the grouped update.
