Arbor 0.2.8 — Take Arbor with you
Take Arbor with you
Arbor is officially supported on phones and tablets — with a full touch workflow, a complete branching view, and the same normal Markdown notes underneath.
A real mobile Branch Editor
- Focused touch layout keeps the selected sibling column in reach, with a dedicated action dock for navigation, editing and structure changes.
- Pinch from 25% to 160% to scale the entire Branch Editor scene: cards, text, spacing and layout now zoom together.
- Pan naturally when zoomed in and scan more of the branch when zoomed out, instead of shrinking text inside fixed cards.
- Tap a card to select it; double-tap or use Edit to write. Save and cancel remain within reach.
Tree Overview, built for touch
- Pan the full tree with one finger and pinch with two fingers to zoom.
- Opening an off-screen card reveals it smoothly, so you do not lose your place while editing.
- PNG and one-page PDF exports use mobile-safe limits.
Theme Studio polish
- The large theme preview grows with its actual text, so branch cards no longer overlap on mobile.
- The mobile action bar has a solid surface with no distracting shadows behind Close, Theme actions or Apply selected.
Reliable navigation and notes
- Breadcrumb selection stays steady while moving through a branch; only genuinely new path items animate.
- Mobile loading and legacy-note recovery are adapted for portable vaults.
- No migration is required: Arbor notes stay normal Markdown with readable block markers and a structure footer.
