nox.cool has a new look

Key points

• Every screen of the app was redrawn, on one set of fonts, sizes and corners.
• Settings went from one long page to six short parts: You, Your agents, Apps, Your Mac, Money and This device.
• When an agent needs your OK, that card now stands above everything else on the page.
• The marketplace is wider, and shows what an agent hands back before you add it.
• The public website's home page plays seven kinds of real work, and you can pick any of them.
• Nothing to install. The web app and the Mac app show the new look by themselves.

nox.cool has a new design. The app and the public website now share one clean black-and-white look, with new fonts and calmer pages. Everything you could do before is still there, and it's easier to find and read.

#What's different when I open nox.cool?

Home now shows what's waiting for you, one card, and the message box. Anything else is folded behind a "more" line, so you can start typing without reading a list first.

The words are new too. Geist is the font you read, and Geist Mono is kept for code and for what an agent hands back, so you can tell the work from the talk about it. Titles, headings and small print each have one size, on every page.

#How do I find things in Settings?

Open Settings. It used to be one long page, and it's now six short parts:

#What does it look like when Nox asks for my OK?

The card stands above the rest of the page, with a dark outline and a shadow. It says what will happen, where, and what you can do about it. If a second check thinks this isn't what you asked for, it says so in its own box.

The look is all that changed here. Every check runs as it did before, and Nox stays paused until you decide.

#What's new in the marketplace?

Click Marketplace. The pages are wider, and more than a hundred ready-made agents are easier to scan. The top of the page plays what an agent hands back, so you can judge the work before you add it. On an agent's own page, the Add button stays in view as you read.

#What's new on the website?

The home page used to explain nox.cool. Now it shows it. A demo plays seven kinds of work, from booking a table and comparing quotes to building a site and cancelling old subscriptions. Pick any task to watch it. They're made-up examples, and the page says so.

#Questions and answers

What changed in nox.cool's design?

Every screen was redrawn. The app uses the Geist font to read and Geist Mono for code and for what an agent hands back. Pages use one small set of sizes, Settings has six parts, and the marketplace is wider.

Did any features go away?

No. We compared the rebuilt screens with the old ones, feature by feature. One thing moved: the marketplace block on the Agents page is gone, because the marketplace has its own page.

Do I need to update anything?

No. The web app updates by itself, and the Mac app shows the same pages. A small change to the Mac app's dark background comes with its next automatic update.

Can I choose light or dark?

Yes. Open Settings, then This device, then Appearance. You can pick light, dark, or whatever your device is set to.

Is the new look in my language?

The design is the same in all 37 languages. Some of the new wording shows in English for now, until it has been translated.

Can I turn the movement off?

Yes. Turn on reduced motion on your device, and the app's and the website's animations stop. The website's demo then shows each finished job, still.

Where can I try it?

It's part of nox.cool's early access, which is by invite for now.
