# Weekly Orbit release notes across Mac, iPhone, and API

> Weekly Orbit release notes — new features, product updates, and fixes shipped across Mac, iPhone, web, Text Orbit, and the developer API and MCP.

<Update label="2026-07-23" description="Connect Messages and Mac 0.1.60">
  ## New

  * **Connect → Messages (Pro, Mac)** — Sync recent 1:1 iMessage/SMS chats from your Mac: Orbit adds people, writes short summaries, and tags interests. Requires Full Disk Access. [Learn more](/guides/connect#messages-pro)
  * **Orbit for Mac 0.1.60** — Local Messages reader for Connect. Update in-app when the pill appears. [Learn more](/guides/desktop)

  ## Updates

  * **Autopilot** — Messages sense retired (Connect Messages owns texts). Autopilot remains Meetings & email + Screen. [Learn more](/guides/autopilot)
</Update>

<Update label="2026-07-23" description="Orbit for Mac 0.1.59">
  ## Updates

  * **Orbit for Mac 0.1.59** — Rolling out over the auto-updater. Launch Orbit and it will pick up the new build in the background — no reinstall needed. [Learn more](/guides/desktop)
  * **Native Apple Silicon nudge** — If you're on an M-series Mac running the Intel build under Rosetta, Orbit now offers a one-click download of the native Apple Silicon build for noticeably better performance. [Learn more](/guides/desktop)
  * **Per-architecture Mac downloads** — [orbitmy.co/download](https://orbitmy.co/download) now serves the right DMG for your chip (Apple Silicon by default, Intel via the Intel button), so first installs are as fast as auto-updates. [Learn more](/guides/desktop)

  ## Fixes

  * Fixed a case where transient update-feed errors could surface as a launch-time warning; update failures now retry silently in the background.
</Update>

<Update label="2026-07-23" description="Search UX overhaul and Add to Orbit accuracy">
  ## New

  * **Grounded clarify chips in Search** — Ask something broad like "Who do I know in Europe?" and Orbit now offers follow-up chips built only from places and roles that actually exist in your network — no dead ends. [Learn more](/guides/search)
  * **In-thread "Show me more" (Pro)** — Paginate a result set (10 → 25 → 40) inside the same Search conversation instead of restarting the query. [Learn more](/guides/search)
  * **Auto-return after upgrade** — Upgrading from a Search result on Mac now drops you back into the same Search thread after checkout, with your question intact. [Learn more](/guides/plans)

  ## Updates

  * **Truthful counts and empties** — "How many people do I know in New York?" returns an exact count rather than a capped list, and empty results now say so honestly instead of falling back to unrelated matches. [Learn more](/guides/search)
  * **Role and company searches are stricter** — "Founders in my network" and "Who do I know at Google?" now match on real titles and current employers, so results stop pulling in loose bio mentions. [Learn more](/guides/search)
  * **Company switching in follow-ups** — After a result for one company, asking "What about the New York Times?" starts a fresh entity search instead of reusing the previous company's people. [Learn more](/guides/search)
  * **Warmer offline behavior** — Transient network hiccups no longer show a "You're offline" banner. Orbit retries once and falls back to local matches on name, company, title, school, location, and tags. [Learn more](/guides/search)
  * **Instant greetings and small talk** — "Hi" and "How's your day?" answer on device without a round trip, and curly apostrophes are handled correctly.
  * **Add to Orbit accuracy** — Entity preview is more careful about which words are people. Possessives like "Philip's" resolve to **Philip**, filler words like "Oh" and "It's" are no longer highlighted, and unique matches auto-select so simple captures skip review. [Learn more](/guides/add-to-orbit)
  * **Past vs. present employment** — When a note says "used to work at Nike," the employment row is stored as past, not current, so profiles and Search stop showing former employers as today's job. [Learn more](/guides/add-to-orbit)
  * **Safer merges** — Merging duplicates preserves notes, tags, timeline, and relationships on the survivor, and never promotes a former employer to a current one. [Learn more](/guides/enrichment)
  * **Reminder capture** — "Remind me to follow up with Jordan next week" now confirms and lands in your Notifications bell reliably. [Learn more](/guides/signals)

  ## Fixes

  * Removed redundant "Matches Founders —" / "Matches Doctors —" prefixes on role result cards; cards now show title and company cleanly.
  * Fixed a case where a cancelled or superseded Search request could leave a permanent spinner.
  * Fixed rare duplicate preview cards on iPhone — preview cards are now replaced, not stacked, when the final grounded answer arrives.
  * Fixed the location-roster banner incorrectly showing "Showing name matches…" for city queries like "Who do I know in New York City?".
</Update>

<Update label="2026-07-21" description="Week of July 21, 2026">
  ## New

  * **Autopilot on Mac (Pro)** — Orbit now watches meetings, email, messages, and screen so your graph grows without another CSV. Turn senses on individually from Connect. [Learn more](/guides/autopilot)
  * **Add to Orbit (Black+)** — Capture people, notes, and reminders by voice, text, or photo from Mac, web, and iPhone. Orbit proposes contacts, tags, and field updates for you to confirm. [Learn more](/guides/add-to-orbit)
  * **Text Orbit** — Message Orbit over iMessage to search your network and log notes on the go. [Learn more](/guides/text-orbit)
  * **Developer API + MCP (Pro)** — Read your Orbit from agents and apps. Generate API keys and connect via REST or MCP, or try requests live in the [API playground](/developers/rest-api). [Get started](/developers/overview)

  ## Updates

  * **LinkedIn one-click import on Mac** — Auto-import your LinkedIn network in a single click from the desktop app. Web and iPhone continue to support export upload and in-app import. [Learn more](/guides/connect)
  * **Signals feed (Pro)** — Job changes, title changes, locations, and reminders now surface in a single bell so you're not the last to know. [Learn more](/guides/signals)
  * **Deep research on contacts (Pro)** — On-demand enrichment from a contact card when a profile looks thin. LinkedIn network auto-enrichment stays on for Free and Pro. [Learn more](/guides/enrichment)
  * **iPhone capture + Apple Contacts import** — Capture from the tab bar and pull your on-device address book straight into Orbit. [Learn more](/guides/mobile)
  * **Granola integration (Pro)** — Meeting notes flow onto attendee timelines automatically. [Learn more](/guides/connect)
  * **iPhone beta build (0.1.54)** — The latest Orbit for iPhone is in TestFlight with the newest capture, import, and sign-in fixes. Grab the invite from [orbitmy.co/mobile](https://orbitmy.co/mobile). [Learn more](/guides/mobile)
