Hey hey, it’s Ali 👋 – Long time! We’ve been pretty heads down recently, so I’m very excited to share our latest and greatest version. Buckle up and enjoy the update! 😁
Traditional Shortcuts ⌨️
You've asked, we've delivered! Most popular browser shortcuts, like ⌘T, are now natively supported and should function seamlessly.
We’ve also made it easier to switch on all traditional shortcuts, even the obscure ones, from your app preferences.
Who’s typing? 🕵️
We designed SigmaOS to make you feel fast when going through your tasks.
But sometimes, it was hard to tell if you’re typing, or if a single-key shortcut was gonna fire. So we made it clearer! ✅
Pretty Accent 💄
We revisited the “Magic” theme to better match the website aesthetics. We hope you enjoy the new look!
Easier Split Screen ✂️
We’ve completely redesigned the split screen home to make it easier to use. We hope you like it!
Popular requests 🧡
🖼 Mini-windows support extensions and popups
🖨️ Printing margins now match those of a traditional browsers
👌Pinch-to-zoom is fully supported on WebKit+
🧡 Brand new setup flow, try it with a friend!
🧑🏫 Educational tips were added for new users, so it’s easier to get started with SigmaOS (you can turn them on by searching for “enable tips”).
😁 And a few other things…
Drastic app performance improvements (especially on macOS 12), PDF/website extraction works better and more reliably with Airis, friendlier nudges have been implemented to help your learn keyboard shortcuts, the setup flow was completely revamped, to make it more fun and match the new brand, website compatibility has been improved in WebKit+ (Netflix, LinkedIn), panels work as expected on Google Products (Drive, Sheets, Docs…), improved compatibility with password managers, Airis can be used as a general assistant even when no pages are active, and the usual bug fixes and performance improvements.
So what’s next?
