What's New in Orbit
2.1.1
August 4, 2026
Orbit 2.1.1 — a tune-up. • Busy orbits arrange themselves properly again — no more pile-ups. Everyone sits further apart, the sun takes its rightful place at the centre, and a name is never hidden behind the planet next door. • Cards stay open when you touch them. • The place field no longer hides behind the keyboard. • Tap "MET" when you log a catch-up to switch it to CALLED or TEXTED. • Got a date wrong? Re-date any catch-up from the diary — or tap a past day in the calendar and add a memory straight onto it. • Notes take paragraph breaks now, and Report a Bug reaches us again. Thank you to everyone who wrote in — please keep it coming.
