Decks you can build from either end. A deck now holds nineteen display items beside the controls: clock, date, text, image, shape, icon, bar, ring, number, gauge, sparkline, status light, list, Mac status, pinned window and script output. Lay them out freely, with align, distribute, layer, multi-select and undo, on the phone or in the Mac's own deck editor. Eleven themes, and a CSS layer with a documented vocabulary if you would rather style a deck by hand. Ghost. Pin one Mac window to the phone and it fills the screen in the right proportions, with your touches landing in the window. Or give the Mac a second screen: a software display it treats like a monitor, with rotation, and switches for the Dynamic Island and the rounded corners. The cable. Plug the phone into a paired Mac and Coast offers to run over USB, at a 0.46 ms round trip, with Wi-Fi held warm behind it so unplugging falls back within a tick. Bluetooth is still there for when Wi-Fi is not. Twenty-three preset decks, every shortcut checked against the app maker's own documentation: Final Cut, Premiere, Resolve, Logic, Xcode, VS Code, Terminal, Figma, Blender, Photoshop, Lightroom, Keynote, Safari, Finder and more. Coast speaks Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish and French, and follows iOS's per-app language setting. Also in this release: a four-tab layout with Settings one tap from anywhere, a Settings window on the Mac in the native style, a rebuilt trackpad photo editor with pinch, pan and an Apple-style ruler, a System tab that grew from thirteen tiles to thirty-four, timers and triggers for macros, an optional door for AI assistants that is off by default, and a fix for the false "Wi-Fi stopped answering" notice when you return to the app.
