Pin a Split View, fill and sign PDFs, and find your files and purchases in Veb.
Added
Pin Pair
In the sidebar, pin both halves of a Split View as one square. Open the pair again with its saved pages and widths.
PDF Fill & Sign
Fill a PDF from your profile, add text or a signature, and save a signed copy to Downloads. The original stays unchanged.
Files
Find downloads, mail attachments and files you sent from one place. Search names, sources and text inside supported documents, and choose a previous file when a site asks for an upload.
Purchases
Find receipts, orders and subscriptions in mail kept in Veb, see monthly totals, and open a subscription's billing page from its renewal reminder.
Day threads
History groups browsing into tasks. Rename or forget a thread, ask about a day with sources, and reopen its pages together.
Dark pages
Dark Reader is built in. Follow your theme, switch it for one site, or adjust that site's appearance.
Form suggestions
Empty fields can show a suggestion from your own details. Tab takes it and moves on, typing replaces it, and Esc dismisses the suggestions.
Improved
Assistants in your tabs
A linked assistant can work in the existing tabs you allow, keep a half-filled form in place, and hand the tab back when it finishes. Sending still asks you first.
Files for agents
Agents can search and read files and look up purchases, with permission for mail access.
Spaces with a mouse
A sideways wheel or Shift-wheel over the sidebar moves between spaces, one space per push.
Extension APIs
More extensions can use tab groups, the reading list and offscreen pages. Tab audio capture supports ordinary media, Web Audio and call streams; protected video and some cross-site media remain unsupported.
Agent memory
Veb limits how many agent tabs stay awake, checks growing pages and stops pages that exceed its memory limits.
Mail accounts
iCloud and Zoho setup has clearer provider names, account fields and password errors.
Fixed
Smoother resizing
Dragging the sidebar, DevTools, chat or Split View divider resizes the page in step, without stale frames.
Undo a removed kept tab
Command-Z puts a kept tab or folder you removed back where it stood, not at the end.
Tabs above the sidebar foot
With a long list, tabs end above the spaces and the plus at the bottom of the sidebar, as in Arc.
Smart rename for downloads
Settings > AI > Tidy downloads can name a file by its contents with Claude or ChatGPT when Apple Intelligence is off. Undo puts the site's name back.
Boosts for newcomers
New Boost and Bring Boosts from Arc are in Command-T. Without Claude or ChatGPT connected, a boost says to connect one.
Arc space colors
Spaces brought from Arc keep Arc's own colors with no stray black dot, and the minus in the color editor removes only one color.
Reopen a closed window
Shift-Command-T brings back the first window closed while another stays open.
Tasks with your provider
Tasks follow the AI you chose. With Gemini, a task taken by Claude says so.
Full screen key
Control-Command-F toggles full screen from the page, a text box or the address field.
Spaces after a reinstall
Spaces come back when Veb's settings are gone but the spaces are kept.
Close in Split View
Command-W on a pinned or kept tab in Split View keeps its row in the sidebar.
Sending mail from an agent
After you say yes, the card folds into a small capsule with Undo and a countdown, then says Sent or Not sent.
Reading mode everywhere
The book and Aa buttons sit in the address bar with tabs on either side or across the top, and on a small corner plate when the address bar is hidden.
Reading Mode settings
Reading Mode has its own page in Settings, and Appearance links to it.
Back and forward in the address bar
Back and forward stand at the start of the address bar when it is shown, as in Arc.
Tab switch
Switching tabs no longer shifts the page in from the side.
Excel Online in Dark pages
Excel's grid stays dark instead of showing white text on light gray.
Blur under the pins
Tab names scrolled under the pinned tabs blur away more strongly.
Welcome: Connect your agent
Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Gemini each have their own place, with their names and status, as soon as the step opens.
Welcome: Look
Picking Sidebar or A color shows on the window right away.
Agent questions on iPhone
A question from an agent on your Mac shows in Veb on your iPhone too, and rings there once you step away from the Mac.
Notification to the question
Clicking an agent's notification brings Veb forward with its question, even with no tab open.
Menus with search
Tab, folder, space and plus menus open in one panel you can search, every line with its mark, Copy URL everywhere.
Spaces as dots or emoji
The space menu lets you show spaces as dots or as their emoji.
Chat column on a look
The chat column lets the space's color through.
Other browsers' history
Veb reads another browser's history only after you bring things in from it.
Extensions per sign-in
A space with its own sign-ins has its own extensions, as Arc and Dia keep them per profile. A password manager there may ask you to sign in once more.
Split View at the screen edge
A tab dragged to the edge of a window that fills the screen opens Split View again instead of a new window.
PDF Download
The Download button in the PDF viewer saves the file.
Switching to pinned tabs
A pinned or kept tab you pick from Command-T comes up at once, its page loading in place.
Split View drag
A Split View pair dragged below the last tab stays a pair, with its halves in place.
Import from Chrome and Brave
Tabs put to sleep by a suspender extension come in as their pages, and Brave Beta and Nightly are found.
Small window key
Option-Command-N opens the small window from any app, with no setting to turn on.
Reading mode in the field
Command-L over an article and Command-T offer Reading Mode.
No Color space
A space with no color is white in light mode and black in dark, as in Arc and Dia.
Pin Pair by dragging
Drag a Split View pair into the pinned tabs to pin it as one square, or drag the square back to Today. The pair menu shows each half's site icon.
Select to line ends
Shift-Command-Left and Right select to the start or end of the text in the address field, Command-T and tab names.
Forget from History
Shift-Delete in History forgets the chosen page and keeps History open.
Choose your AI
Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Gemini directly. Choose one provider, with a colored tile for each. Sign-in status appears without reordering the list.
Remember your provider
New chats and Command-J keep your chosen provider and model after restarting Veb. Gemini works without another AI plan connected.
New windows
Command-N opens the new window right away and puts its address field in focus.
Surfshark reloads
An extension's update callback no longer starts a repeated reload loop. Veb also stops rapid reload requests from continuing indefinitely.
Call window memory
The call window installs its page script once per document instead of sending the whole script on every update.
Certificate exceptions
Approval of an invalid certificate applies only to that profile, host, port and certificate chain. Local HTTPS sites ask too.
Local network access
Public addresses written as IPv4-mapped IPv6 no longer bypass local network checks.
Free, for macOS 15.4 or later.
