What's New

The latest updates and improvements to Build Anything.

Wednesday, August 26, 2026

Search on Explore

Explore now has a search box, so you can go straight to an app by name instead of scrolling for it. Results narrow as you type and work alongside the tag filter and sort. Your search lives in the URL, so a link shares exactly what you were looking at.

Control remixing and see an app's source

Your app's settings now have an Allow remixes toggle, so you decide whether others can start their own copy — remixes already made are unaffected. And an app's page shows the app it was remixed from, linking straight to it, so you can follow a build back to where it started.

Keyboard navigation in menus and tabs

Getting around Build Anything with a keyboard works properly now. Dropdown menu rows draw a clear ring as you reach them, so you always know where you are, and the tab strips on analytics cards, the add-domain dialog and environment requests move with the arrow keys, Home and End.

Text scales with your browser settings

Text across Build Anything now scales with your browser or device text-size setting instead of ignoring it. Turn the font size up for easier reading, or down to fit more on screen, and the whole interface follows along.

Threads and Mastodon profile links

Your profile links can now point at Threads and Mastodon, alongside X, Instagram and your own site. Threads takes a handle — paste a full profile URL and it gets trimmed for you — while Mastodon takes the whole address, so any instance works. Each link shows its own icon.

Wordmark styling for your app's name

The style notes behind a new app now cover how its name should look — typeface, weight, case, color or a small device — so the title reads as a designed wordmark instead of plain text. Your app gets a stronger sense of identity wherever its name appears.

App page header lines up on phones

An app's page now puts its icon above the name on phones, the way it already did on wider screens. The header reads the same everywhere, so the icon, title and author sit in one clean column instead of shifting around as the screen narrows.
