What's New in Aura Safety
4.5.11
August 23, 2026
What's New in This Version** Aura is getting quieter, faster, and more personal. • **Moments feel better** — smoother Holds, more responsive Waves, and a more polished experience from creation to arrival. • **Sharing is more reliable** — Moments now travel more smoothly to the people you care about, including through Living Links. • **A better receiving experience** — improved wake, media, motion, and transitions so a Moment feels like something made for you, not something sent at you. • **Relationship spaces have been refined** — your people stay at the center, with less chrome and more room for the Moments you've made together. • **Accessibility improvements** — better support for Reduce Motion and alternative interaction needs. • **Lots of reliability and performance work** — including fixes around Hold, media, persistence, links, and edge cases. As always, Aura has no feeds, likes, streaks, read receipts, or pressure to respond. **Someone comes to mind. Hold for them.**
