20th March 2025 - spring has sprung….and so has an update! 
hi everyone- what day is it? it’s thursday. but more importantly, it’s OTA day! so sit back, let it install, and soak in that update-y goodness.
what’s new? 
- let’s focus. LAM playground now has a new option, which we call focus frame! it’s a new tool that lets you select part of the page that you’re on, and have the rabbit agent focus specifically on that given area for context and follow up tasks. focus frame can only be used in LAM playground sessions started from rabbithole.
try the following things with focus frame to get started.
- click a shirt on a clothing website and tell LAM playground to “find me more like this”
- select a complicated sentence in a research paper and ask “what does this mean?”
- highlight the ingredients section of a recipe on a cooking website and type “convert this to metric”
-
developer mode is here. as part of our commitment to our developer community, we’re officially providing a way to unlock the bootloader on your r1 hardware, flash alternate operating system images, and flash back to rabbitOS too. click here to learn more about how this works, and check out the new developer/modding categories here and on our discord.

deferrable OTAs have landed! ever been out and about with your r1 when an update hit, and you got annoyed that you couldn’t use your r1 until you found power and wifi? yep, we hear you. this update fixes that for all future updates after this one, and you’ll be able to defer the update to a more suitable time.
enjoy, and keep sharing your thoughts and feedback with us!

16th Jan 2025 - rabbit r1 adds multi-language support
Summary
welcome to 2025.
rabbit is starting the year as we mean to go on - r1 now supports multiple languages!
r1 now supports changing the default language, starting with 12 more language options in addition to english.
these languages are:
- Chinese (simplified)
- Chinese (traditional)
- French
- German
- Hindi
- Italian
- Japanese
- Korean
- Portuguese
- Russian
- Spanish
- Swedish
we intend to add more languages over time, so let us know what you’d like to see supported!
how does it work?
on the home screen, scroll up twice to enter the settings menu, where you’ll find a new option that says language. select it, and choose your new default language. after doing this, you’ll be able to speak to your r1 and have it speak back to you in the selected language, and the r1 texts and settings will also be localized.
if the accent doesn’t seem quite right with a generative voice, be sure to update your genvoice prompt in rabbithole to match.
for more info, check out our full press release here!
other improvements and fixes: 
- the 2024 holiday rabbits are now available in your r-cade collection! these special rabbits can’t be recycled and can’t be won in the capsule machine.
- we added a placeholder frame in magic gallery for images that are still generating. if you take a magic camera photo, then immediately go to magic gallery, you’ll see the placeholder appear until the image has finished generating.
enjoy, and be sure to keep sharing your thoughts and feedback with us!
