Nous Research desktop app overhaul: instant gateway switching and auto-reconnect land this week
Teknium · x · 2026-11-02
Teknium of Nous Research says the team has spent the past week or two focused on the desktop app, and this week's full release should feel noticeably nicer for power users.
Per the changelog image:
- Gateway switching: previously prompted "Switch to this device?" and blanked the session list; now the pick lands instantly with no blank list.
- Gateway down at launch: sessions previously never appeared; now they're listed 30 seconds after the gateway returns.
- How it works: every registered gateway is dialed at launch, held open, and redialed if it drops.
More UX and design work is coming shortly.
