Today’s release includes a significant update to Custom Apps and many other things in different areas, including performance improvements and a lot of bug fixes. Enjoy!
## Custom Apps: major platform update
We can now ship new versions of the Custom Apps platform. All new apps use the new platform. In some cases these versions are not backward compatible, so when working with an older app, you can see **update platform** button and the app will be rebuilt on the new platform version if you want to use its capabilities. This operation consumes tokens.
If you create apps via MCP and want to apply the new platform version to an older app, you still have to update the platform from the Fibery UI
Custom Apps improvements in this version:
- Open entities in panels, just like in the main Fibery UI.
- The rich text editor in apps now renders mentions of users and entities, and users can add new mentions via a basic UI.
- You can now change the URL of a custom app — find the `App URL` action at the top of the app.
- Custom Apps can now refresh data in the background.
- The prompt typed into the Custom App chat input is now preserved, so if you navigate away and come back, your precious text will still be there.
- You can now paste images from the clipboard into the App builder.
## Set a load limit for Lists and Tables on Entity View
For many years, only 15 items were shown in relation lists and tables by default. Sometimes this number is not enough, and sometimes it’s just weird. No more! You can finally set a load limit for Lists and Tables inside Entity View.
Open the Items setup section and select a Load Limit value (including Unlimited, if you’re not afraid of loading hundreds of entities every time):
## Multi-window support in the desktop app
The desktop app now opens as many windows as you have screens.
How it works: `Cmd + Shift + N` on macOS, `Ctrl + Shift + N` on Windows, or File → New Window.
Each window keeps its own tabs and history, all windows share one session, and your window layout is restored on relaunch. The Windows app also gets a full app menu.
## Sort search results by creation date
Search results can now be sorted by creation date. Select “Newest first” when you’re looking for something fresh.
## Performance improvements
**Opening an entity is faster now.** Every block used to redo the same lookup on its own; now it happens once for the whole entity.
We also **fixed a handful of memory leaks**. Whiteboards kept their whole scene in memory after you navigated away, every popover you closed left size observers behind, and the text editor held onto handlers each time a document closed. Nothing you’d spot in ten minutes, but if you keep Fibery open all day, that’s the one you’ll feel.
Typing in documents with many mentions is smoother now.
## 🦋 Improvements
- **MCP:** The Claude Fibery MCP Connector has been approved by Anthropic and included in the official directory → [https://claude.ai/directory/fibery](https://claude.ai/directory/fibery)
- **Forms:** When a user has Architect mode enabled, forms open in Edit mode by default instead of Preview mode
- **Automations:**
- Non-Architects can now see the names of Rules when browsing history, notifications, and comments
- When a Rule adds a comment, you see its name instead of `Deleted User` or `Unknown User`
- **Integrations:** Disconnecting an integration in Fibery now notifies the connector so it can revoke the OAuth token on its end too — no more orphaned tokens lingering with the provider.

## 🦐 Fixed Bugs
- **Fields** :
- Unit with button visualization stops being selected after converting a field from Email/Phone/URL to Text
- Whiteboards field briefly appears on the left when added after Documents
- **Form View** :
- Keyboard navigation in relation selects in forms doesn’t work
- Tab navigation doesn’t work in forms that contain at least one rich text field
- Extra success messages are displayed when an entity is added via a required form
- **History & Audit Log:**
- ‘Via’ is empty if the rule is disabled automatically
- Empty ‘Via’ value when a revision is restored for a button/rule
- **Whiteboard** :
- Links and entities in an embedded view are not clickable in lock and presentation modes
- Note doesn’t have an icon in search results
- Canvas doesn’t resize when the sidebar is collapsed or dragged
- Image export glitches (text, section header)
- Text of enum items is not visible on the Entity card
- Connector highlight doesn’t appear for the target icon when drawing an arrow
- ‘Show as a widget’ shouldn’t be available for entity views
- **Table View** : Can’t open an entity from the ‘more’ list
- **Entity View** : Rich text of a locked entity can be edited in Feed view
- **Custom Apps** : Handle auth redirect in apps
- **Navigation** : “New Item” button is hidden for Architects at the bottom of a Space
- **Integrations** : n8n: `is_not` filter not working
- **Slack Notifications** : Typo in Slack notification - ‘added’ instead of ‘removed’
- **Reports** : Unable to take over ownership once the entity with the master drop is deleted
- **Desktop** : Tab elements overlap the system window buttons on Windows
- **Mobile** : Inbox scroll jumps when you change scroll direction
- **Relations & Links** : Badge labels are misaligned on the Relations screen

This is huge for me. Now it’s an actual Fibery view, and not an isolated app. Fantastic!!

And this works very nicely. the “#” selector is a bit different from what im used to in the normal platform though.

Not sure what this means, but yay for performance.
Lovely stuff. I look forward to the AI apps being more and more integrated into the platform. (AI generated forms? 👀)

Ideally we’d have the ability to properly set it up as a defined “Form” and even make it required on input. Then when the user presses the “+” button, anywhere in Fibery, it pops up with the custom form.
This might be solvable with the “Custom Apps As Fibery Views” if it also gets to context views, since then we can set a form to be the context view on the entity, but I’m not 100% sure about this.

I love that the desktop app continues to get great improvements for QOL and other goodies! Thanks for those! Along with that, my second favorite is the integration token clean up. Kudos to the thoughtful update.
(Sidenote: i would still love to see a start-to-finish usecase webinar for AI apps (sample app, thought processes behind it, example tweaks, etc)
I haven’t dipped in quite yet due to client commitments, but am eager to start showing this off to folks I’m onboarding to Fibery).

Are there plans to allow to drag tabs between windows? I just tried that today and failed.
But its indeed very nice to have multiple windows! I didnt use Fibery on the desktop app, but I think this is the things that is pushing me towards it.

AWESOME update!!!
Custom Apps are got a lot of love. Thanks for making it possible to show URLS without the menu. Very useful!! And you added a lot more than that! ❤
" \* You can now change the URL of a custom app — find the `App URL` action at the top of the app."
If I make a workspace open to public, and I open this URL to an app from an incognito window I expect it to open, however I have to log in then. Is this what should happen or is this a bug?
Multi window support is VERY useful!
Sorting by creation data is also very useful!
And performance upgrades are always appreciated.
And the other improvements and bug fixes are as well.
Love it!

Thanks so much for all the work and awesome new features.

> - Open entities in panels, just like in the main Fibery UI.
I’m running into some issues with this, particularly when using a[portal set-up like described here](https://the.fibery.io/@public/User_Guide/Guide/Custom-Apps-FAQ-504/anchor=Can-I-simplify-Fibery-UI-somehow-via-man--f308b7ef-b134-48a1-8e6a-3e69dc5d09a6). It seems the panel only works when the app is opened through its own Fibery View (i.e. clicked from the sidebar/normal Fibery navigation), but fails every time the app is loaded via its bare app URL— the call rejects with `Error("Host unavailable")`. This means it also fails in when using the portal view, which accounts for the majority of our use cases.
I have added a fallback by wrapping the `openEntity()` call in a try/catch and, on failure, fall back to manually building the entity’s permalink and opening it in a new tab, but if the host bridge could be made available for apps loaded via the bare URL, that would be amazing! Or if it’s a known limitation that cannot be used in bare urls, perhaps a documented way for apps to choose a fallback behavior proactively so users don’t end up with dead links.

This is correct. When you open App via URL it knows nothing about Fibery UI and panels are not working for such use case. We will think what can be done here

Thanks! It’s not a make-it or break-it thing for me. Fortunately, I was testing directly in the portal instead of it’s own Fibery view, so I ran into it right away, and the workaround works fine for my use case.

We designed this `openEntity` api to open entity in new tab, when there is no parent window (I’m speaking in browser api terms here – `window.parent`).
Now I think this was a wrong criteria. You may want to embed your custom App as iframe, and then you’ll get this error. If you open app in “standalone” mode by pasting app’s url to a new browser tab – entity should be opened correctly.
Can you please confirm, that this is your case? Do you embed your custom App as iframe somewhere?
We will fix it anyway, just want to confirm this is the case for you.

It’s rather a bug.
Right now when you click “Open in a new tab” on a Custom App, while being in a “public” fibery mode(that means you have `@public` prefix in the url), then you custom app is opened in a new tab with `?is-public=1` query param. And this query param makes it to work. So for now you may just add it to the url, and your custom app will be opened properly in incognito.
Such url doesn’t look cool though, we will think on better url schemas here.
