What's New in The Gateway Project
1.8
October 10, 2026
A new look, inside and out. • Animated backdrop on every page. Slow beat-pattern waves, breathing rings and a quiet star field move behind the Library, sessions, History, Learn, Settings, Daily Tools and more. Each one is tinted to match its Focus level. • The Gateway now always uses dark mode, with translucent glass cards and higher-contrast text that's easier to read in a dim room. • Smoother session changes. Starting a new session while another is playing no longer interrupts the audio. • The backdrop respects Reduce Motion and is hidden from VoiceOver.
