20th February 2026 - we call this update fatrabbit

people of the rabbit community! yes, we mean @everyone - it’s time for an update to your r1, so get your charge cables ready to download. this one is so chunky that we’re running low on carrots.

we’ve just shipped a combined over-the-air (OTA) update as well as a bunch of cloud fixes, so let’s get to readin’ and get to installin’

what’s new?

- DLAM shortcuts
shortcuts is a brand new feature inside DLAM that is a combination of memory and prompt injection, so DLAM can learn and remember complex workflows, trigger words and instructions. click the gear icon in the bottom left of the DLAM interface to set one up. when you create a new shortcut, you’ll see input fields for name, description and body (instructions). so for example, you might set up a shortcut to let DLAM know you like to order 12 packs of diet coke from amazon, so that if you reference buying diet coke in the future, it knows to go to amazon, look for a 12 pack of diet coke, and add it to your basket (or even check it out!). there are all sorts of possible use cases for this, from running scripts, to typing out an extremely long workflow that you wouldn’t want to have to explain every single time. we’re looking forward to seeing what you do with it!

- spotify, rapped
not only did we fix recent issues which caused spotify playback to fail, we made it way better too. now when you’re playing a song on spotify, you’ll see live lyrics pop up on your homescreen, in time with the song that’s playing, the primary rabbit will change to the music one with headphones, and it’ll nod its head to the track!

what we updated:

• we improved the latency on r1 queries to make it significantly faster! in internal testing, time to first response after asking your initial question has been improved on average between 20-30%, and in some queries, by as much as 50%! go ahead and ask a question to your r1 - you should notice it’s now significantly faster to reply.

• DLAM session run times are now much longer, so you’re not limited to 60 minutes.

• exporting all your magic camera photos from rabbithole is now more reliable, and you can also export all your photos at once.

• we fixed an issue with OpenClaw where “heartbeats” (scheduled/system notifications from your OpenClaw instance) could cause the r1 to lock up in some cases, requiring a refresh or reboot.

• we’ve added six brand new creations from you, our wonderful community members, to the creations gallery both in the public tab on device and on our website. check them out, and don’t forget that creations are now powered by opus 4.6, resulting in a much higher standard of creations that require less iterations.

enjoy and please keep sharing your feedback with us!

until next time,

6th February 2026 - as fast as a rabbit: intern/creations + dlam now running on claude opus 4.6

Summary

hey everyone - another day, and another great improvement to our agents.

Anthropic just dropped Claude Opus 4.6, their latest state of the art model, so we immediately plugged it straight into rabbit intern/creations and DLAM as part of our agentic stack.

for intern/creations, this means stronger long-context reasoning, better multi-step planning, and more dependable tool use. our initial intern and creations tests have shown improvements in reasoning, planning, design and first-pass output quality.

for DLAM, since Opus 4.6 shows major gains on computer-use benchmarks, you can expect more reliable navigation, fewer mis-clicks, better window handling, and stronger end-to-end task completion as this rolls through DLAM.

overall, this gives our agents more autonomy and stability on real work, whether that’s generating, researching, or directly operating your computer.

here at rabbit, you can expect us to move fast, and keep our products and services in line with the latest advancements in AI. please give both intern/creations and DLAM a look, and let us know your results!

& s
team rabbit

5th February 2026 - we just keep clawing away

Summary

hi everyone - thank you so much for all of your support following our epic release last week of DLAM, OpenClaw support on r1, and the tease of Project Cyberdeck.

it’s been an incredible week, and we’re truly awed to see all the love and usage of both DLAM and OpenClaw on r1, as well as all the excitement for Cyberdeck. We’ve done blog posts, press interviews, amazing audio chats on Discord and Twitter Spaces, and the best part? we’re only just getting started

in keeping up the pace with all these exciting changes, we’re happy to share that an OTA full of improvements is landing now to your r1 devices. This week, we focused on cleaning up some of the rough edges around the OpenClaw integration that we didn’t manage to land in time for the initial release.

here’s what’s new for OpenClaw on r1:

• we’ve added an option in the r1 settings to reset your OpenClaw connection (settings > device > openclaw reset)
• you can now swipe out of the OpenClaw screen to stop audio playback
• switching to OpenClaw now defaults to showing the home screen
• we’ve fixed the screen flashing whilst waiting for openclaw gateway approval
• if there’s a connection error to your gateway, we’ll stop retrying it after a few attempts
• we’ve removed a false positive on the “secure connection required” message
• we’re allowing user messages to queue up when agent is responding
• you can now swipe up from the OpenClaw home screen to access existing messages
• we’ve renamed where it still said “Moltbot” to “OpenClaw”

in addition to these OpenClaw fixes…

• we’ve fixed the text overlap on OTA release notes (this will apply from the next OTA after this one!)
• we’ve prevented device reset before a countdown timer ends for a factory reset

thanks again, and be sure to keep sharing your feedback, and don’t forget to sign up for early access updates on cyberdeck if you didn’t already!

6th June OTA notes added!

[spaceaxe]

I just have to say, I am really impressed with the work done at Rabbit to update the R1. I am sure the fine tuning and feature development will continue. Thanks.

[Chris]

It’s wild how many enhancements / updates are a direct result of the community. Really shows how much the team is paying attention, vs just setting up a discord for the image of having a community. Bravo.

[Swimmingpool]

so many improvements based on feedback! Must be a scam /s

Thank you for everything you guys do.

[michaelwesleyboman]

Is the new UI card refererring to newly manufacftured ie. Hardware revision? Will all R1’s have the new yelp UI card?

[TyDyeGuy]

Yes all will have it, not to worry

[simon]

Today’s release notes (13th June) are live at the top of the page!

[jwc]

It calls me by my name for about 3 prompts. Then when I ask it my name it calls me “user” again. Gave up on trying to personalize that.

[simon]

today’s OTA notes added!

[Argo]

@simon

use your voice to initiate rabbit settings interactions

Not sure if the r1 would be able to tell us about the most recent OTA’s, but every time I try to ask it about the updates or mention terminal mode it navigates to the settings. Seems like the rules on asking for settings are a bit too open right now.

Specifically I was trying variations of the prompt “Does memory v0 in the latest OTA work in terminal mode?” I’ve tried similar prompts for the previous OTAs and ended up with the same result.

@simon Any reason why recall doesn’t currently work in terminal? I know its still early, I’d just love to use it at work without using voice lmao.

[jwc]

Not a single improvement on the entire purpose of this device, the LAM. Please don’t talk about the ability to look at your history as a LAM capability.

Hey - at least now I can connect it when I’m at a hotel!!!

[Jendrik]

I really appreciate your development. I love my R1. It is getting better and better every update.

[Scr81]

Any ideas what has happened to last week? Just seems quiet as theres been an update weekly, my device arrives and then no update. Im hoping it’s due to some fixes in the background taking longer, but as an excited newbie it would be cool to get a glimpse behind the curtain on whats next.

[utahca]

Last week’s update merged to this week’s. Due to rabbit team will be off on July 4th.
