What's New in Orbit
1.0.11
October 19, 2026
Ask your circles for recs. Going somewhere? Share a card to your story and friends tell you where to go, even if they're not on Orbit yet. When you're back, leave your own top spots for the next friend going. Trips on your profile: where you're heading, where you've been, and one place you know well, with your recs for it. A calmer profile, with settings behind the gear. Sign in, sign out and password reset all work properly now.
