Rabbit R1 Undergoes Major Overhaul with Launch of RabbitOS 2, Hopes for User Revival
Rabbit Inc. is making a significant push to re-engage users with its AI-powered Rabbit R1 device, rolling out the highly anticipated RabbitOS 2 update today. This substantial software upgrade introduces a completely redesigned user experience, aiming to address earlier criticisms and enhance the device’s functionality.
The RabbitOS 2 update brings a host of improvements, starting with a revamped user interface and more intuitive gesture controls. Users will now find a new Quick Settings screen, reminiscent of modern smartphone operating systems, providing quick access to essential functions like volume, brightness, and camera. Conversation flow is also enhanced, offering more detailed on-screen responses and options to manage microphone input or expand the keyboard.
A key new feature is the ‘Card Stack,’ which acts as an application drawer, clearly organizing the R1’s capabilities such as Magic Gallery, recordings, and Rabbit Intern. Furthermore, RabbitOS 2 introduces ‘R1 Creations,’ a platform for users to develop and share their own AI-coded apps and games, leveraging the device’s AI model with simplified creation tools.
Minor but impactful changes include full conversation transcripts in the translation function, synced with the user’s activity hub, Rabbit Hole. This comprehensive update, available as a free download for all 2024 R1 models, represents Rabbit Inc.’s strategic effort to provide a more competent and appealing experience, hoping to give the AI gadget a much-needed second chance in the competitive tech market.
