Orbit v1.3.0

1.3.0 — 2026-08-06

Added

• Orbit can appear as an optional special card in the app ring.
• Dragging the Orbit card to the center safely requests a normal quit for ordinary apps confirmed to have no open windows.
• The right-side preview now explains empty, unavailable, permission-required, loading, and Orbit states.
• The ring now has an optional circular backdrop with a separate appearance color control.
• Appearance settings now include a live preview for the ring backdrop and its material/card styling.

Fixed

• Orbit cleanup no longer closes the ring while the trigger key is still held; releasing the trigger remains the intentional dismissal action.
• File deletion and AirDrop now follow the same trigger-key lifetime, including asynchronous file URL loading.
• Finder and Orbit are excluded from the windowless-app cleanup candidates.
• The AirDrop center state now uses Orbit’s ivory and burgundy palette instead of the previous blue treatment.
• Small app groups now use a tighter, more balanced fan while preserving the full preview width.
• The ring and preview now share a centered two-column layout with consistent spacing and screen margins.

Validation

• Release build succeeds and the app signature verifies successfully.
• The test run was attempted but could not complete because CoreSimulatorService became unavailable in the build environment.
