🎨 NEW design on Desktop
Guess who joined in with a new design? Desktop!
Next time you open Ava on the downloadable desktop app, you'll see a bold new design with the same, amazing captions.
What's new?
- Similarly to Web... everything?! The entire experience will feel and look different, but don't worry everything you love about Ava is still there - just prettier 😉
- Themes- you'll now be able to change your design theme on Desktop! The theme colors are inspired by nature and art, with names like Ocean, Starry Night, Fog, and Charcoal.
- Menu Buttons- the menu bar's icons are now grouped by use-case, making it much easier to find the functionality you need.
- Hidden Menu Bar- when you are in an active conversation, your menu bar will hide itself so you can focus on the captions.
Now that's only a bit of what is new about the new design. You'll have to try it out to experience it all!
