An agent can now have several threads. Start a new thread from the title bar, switch between them, rename or delete them; each thread keeps its own conversation, and your earlier chat is the first thread.
When an agent asks you to confirm something, the question now shows right in the chat with its answer buttons and a Reply option. /ask is in the command list.
Dictation with ElevenLabs: paste your ElevenLabs API key in Settings → Voice, and your words appear in the message box while you speak.
Dictation can use the Whisper model, which covers about 100 languages and lets you choose the language you speak, or leave it on Automatically, in Settings → Voice.
Dictation in the desktop app: press the microphone in the message box, speak, and press it again to have your words written for you. It works on your computer, so what you say stays there.
A help button at the foot of the sidebar: What’s new shows the latest changes, with a link to the full changelog.
The host menu in the sidebar can remove a host from your account, or leave a shared one, below Host settings.
An agent can now ask you something and wait. The Dynamic Island shows its picture, the question and its answers: press 1–9 to answer, J and K to move between questions, Enter for the recommended answer, R to reply in your own words, Esc to put it away. Try it with /ask in the Echo agent.
React to an agent's reply with an emoji: pick one of the quick ones or open more, and tap a reaction under the reply to take it off. The reaction is a note for yourself; the agent does not see it.
You can choose how long an agent's question waits for your answer (1 minute to 24 hours, or as long as it takes) in Host settings → General. After that the question is withdrawn and the agent carries on.
Replies read aloud in the desktop app: download the speech model in Settings → Voice, choose one of ten voices, and when you dictate a message its reply is read to you. Start dictating again to stop it.
Settings has a Storage page: it shows how much space Movl uses on your computer and what each agent’s conversation takes, clears the cache in one click, and can reset Movl when something is broken.
Voice settings in the desktop app: download a dictation model and a model that reads replies aloud, choose which one to use, and remove it when you no longer need it.

Scrollbars now have the app's own look: thin and rounded, in the colours of the current theme, the same on every platform.
Sliders look cleaner: a thicker track with a soft unfilled part and a larger, easier-to-grab handle.
Settings → Storage now shows how much space the downloaded voice models take, as a part of its own.
