Rabbit R1 might be a name gone unheard for a while, but the company behind the AI device is trying to get a do-over. An update to RabbitOS 2 is rolling out today for the Rabbit R1, complete with a new look and updates to existing features for a more competent experience.<\/p>\n

In an 8-minute video posted on Rabbit\u2019s official Twitter\/X account<\/a>, the company made a relatively big announcement regarding an update to the software that makes the R1 work. The video didn\u2019t include any mention of a new device, and the now available OS upgrade will come as a free download for the model launched in 2024<\/a>.<\/p>\n

the old r1 is dead. introducing a totally new experience with rabbitOS 2 + creations.<\/p>\n

we realized there was a gap between our early vision and the actual experience we delivered. so we overhauled everything.<\/p>\n

The video highlights a few key changes to the overall RabbitOS UI in version 2. The touchscreen, for one, is becoming more functional with improved gesture controls. That includes a new Quick Settings screen similar to what\u2019s seen in Android or iOS.<\/p>\n

The Quick Settings screen offers access to volume, brightness, and cards for camera or text input.<\/p>\n

Conversation flow is now visible with detailed responses displayed on the screen. The conversation page also gives users the option to mute the microphone or expand the keyboard for follow-ups. A camera shortcut is now available, as well.<\/p>\n

The company also admits that Rabbit R1\u2019s capabilities are not clear to some users. RabbitOS 2 approaches capabilities differently and more concisely. The new \u201cCard Stack\u201d function in the Rabbit R1\u2019s update acts as a sort of app drawer. Scrolling through the cards will offer function options, like Magic Gallery, recordings, and Rabbit Intern. For those familiar, the option to aduibly ask the R1 to start one of these tasks is still available.<\/p>\n

The RabbitOS 2 update also brings some small changes to key functions. One given example is in the translations function. The feature will now offer full conversation transcripts and sync those with the Rabbit Hole \u2014 a sort of user activity hub.<\/p>\n

Rabbit is giving vibe coders a new home in the update, too. The R1 Creations tool will house AI-coded apps and games from users, as well as give them the option to create their own with the Rabbit R1\u2019s AI model. The Rabbit Intern agent will create tools and programs based on prompts, but the value for vibe coders here is in the simplicity. It doesn\u2019t look like much else is needed other than the Intern and the R1 device.<\/p>\n

The company hopes that these changes will make the Rabbit R1 a more appealing device to existing and new users. The AI-driven tool hasn\u2019t exactly been a groundbreaking success<\/a>, but maybe software will change that. Rabbit announced that RabbitOS 2 will be available for R1 users as soon as today.<\/p>\n
