💪🏽 LegendApp & Vella.ai are teaming up! 🥳

Hello Everyone,
Yonz here, I am beyond excited to welcome Legend into the Vella.ai family. Vella’s fully private ai-powered email is the perfect complement LegendApp and we will be heavily investing in Legend to make it worthy of the 136,000+ Legendary users.

Jay has done a herculean job of building Legend and I’m excited to see how far we can take it with a full team behind it. Read the full blog post here

November 2025 Release

Hello everyone!
Today's release features an update to the Desktop app, user‑reported fixes, and improvements. Thank you for your patience as we work to deliver features and fixes. Below are the details for today’s production release.

Release Summary
⚠️ Desktop app v2.3.2 required

  • Scope-respecting filters

  • Un-mirror linked items

  • System-browser authentication for desktop

  • Fix for space-bar unintended scroll

  • Correct Workflowy OPML date imports

  • Outlook & Shortwave email drag-and-drop fixes

  • 24-hour time format option

  • Date marker enhancements

  • Custom local backups

Details

  1. Scope respecting filters

    Whether you are zoomed in to a particular section or only on one document, the Agenda view and filters brought in additional items. The fix restricts matches to only what is in view.
    Reported issues - Agenda bringing completed, Completed items are not being filtered from group by date views

  2. Un-mirror linked items
    Mirrored items can now be “un-mirrored” via a new context‑menu action. This clones the mirrored item and removes the link. In the past, it was impossible to delete just the mirrored location if you didn't undo in time.

  3. Authenticate with the system browser for the Desktop app.

    We now use your existing system browser to sign in or approve sync requests when using the desktop app. This reduces friction when searching for your Gmail password in the Desktop application. The new flow opens a browser tab to request sign-in.
    ℹ All users will be prompted to re‑authorize after the desktop app upgrade

  4. Fix for space bar causing unintended scroll.
    Pressing the space bar to scroll in multi‑pane views previously caused unintended defocus. The change-detection logic is now fixed and no longer triggers a defocus.
    Reported Issue: space‑bar‑is‑causing‑unintended‑scroll

  5. Correct import of date mentions from Workflowy OPML exports
    When importing OPML files from Workflowy, date mentions inside items were not always parsed correctly. This release resolves the date mention import issue, so your imported outlines retain their intended dates in notes such as this:

  6. Outlook and Shortwave Email Drag & drop fixes
    Shortwave and Outlook login & email dragging were broken. With the fix, you can now drag emails from Outlook and Shortwave directly into Legend.
    ℹ️ We will need to update when the platforms have significant UI changes.

  7. 24‑hour time format option
    Legend now supports a 24‑hour time format. Enable it in your settings if you prefer to see times without AM/PM. Reported issue: 12h/25 time format setting

  8. Date marker enhancements
    Date chips now display ranges when appropriate, making it clear when an item spans multiple days. Let us know what you think, the last one could use some improvements.

  9. Custom Local Backups
    The updated binary will finally enable the desktop app to support local backups and custom directories for both backups and documents. Use your own directory to make sure existing local backups aren’t deleted during an app update.

Best,
- Yonz
