The company also introduced dice with any number of sides, coin flips, and widget toggles. Orion browser launched version 1.1 with a new interface, containers, and personalized borders.", "body_md": "##\nJuly 2nd, 2026 - Heads, tails, and an AI toggle\n[ #](/changelog#10959)\n\n## Kagi Search\n\n### New controls to completely turn off AI-based features in search\n\nWe've added an option to disable access to AI features in search, under [settings/ai](https://kagi.com/settings/ai).\n\nWe're also planning to add this option to onboarding, so new users can personalise their Kagi experience from the start.\n\nIt's finally here! We believe that Kagi's application of AI should always be *useful* - there when you'd like it, and never when you don't, and always respecting your privacy.\n\nThis took us some time to navigate the right way to communicate this option. We did not want to create a confusing narrative as a company adding a toggle while continuing to invest in AI features elsewhere in our portfolio. But in the end, we want to stay true to putting you in control of *your* search engine - so here you are!\n\nWe deeply thank the community for their feedback and patience.\n\n### Flip coins and more sports widgets\n\nBy popular demand, our dice widget has gained the ability to roll dice with any number of sides. We're not sure what kind of games you're playing that need d7s, but we support them now.\n\nWe also added support for flipping coins, which are really just two-sided dice when you think about it:\n\nWe've added a set of switches on [https://kagi.com/settings/more_search](settings/more_search) so you can disable any of our widgets you don't want to see. The toggle descriptions include links illustrating the widgets' capabilities so you understand what you're turning on or off; go check it out!\n\n## Orion browser ✴︎\n\nThis week, we’re launching [Orion 1.1 for macOS](https://orionbrowser.com/platforms/macos), one of the most significant updates in our history. This version is built around three major new features (in addition to 170+ smaller improvements and bug fixes).\n\n**A New Interface ✴︎**\n\nWhen Apple released *LiquidGlass*, the reception was mixed—even within our own team. The demand was there, but we weren't ready to just copy-paste what Safari had done. They had even removed compact tabs!\n\nSo, we created our own implementation.\n\n**Containers ✴︎**\n\nJust like Firefox, we now offer containers. What are they? Each tab becomes completely isolated from the others: total privacy and the ability to log into multiple accounts on the same site from the very same window!\n\n**A Personalized Browser Border ✴︎**\n\nThe current trend is an elegant, transparent border seen on many browsers. The problem is, they don't match Apple's design language. So, what did we do?\n\nAs we usually do: we made it an option! And we took it even further: transparency, solid colors, gradients, and even an automatic color-match with the website for total immersion.\n\n*This option is exclusively available to Orion+ subscribers.*\n\n**Orion+**\n\nOrion is your free browser, but we offer a [support plan](https://kagi.com/onboarding?p=orion_plan) to maintain the independence that guarantees your data is not, and will never be, sold to advertisers—or worse.\n\nWe have a dedicated website where you can download all the versions we currently support, as well as any we may support in the future (macOS, iOS, iPadOS, Windows, and Linux): [https://orionbrowser.com](https://orionbrowser.com)\n\n## Kagi News & Kagi Translate\n\n[Kagi News](https://news.kagi.com/) and [Kagi Translate](https://translate.kagi.com/) have both been successes that took us by surprise.\n\nKagi News users from all over the world loved being able to read their news in the language of their choice, stress-free, and even add new topics.\n\nKagi Translate users loved the contextual features that provide a spectacular translation quality — far beyond what typical machine translation offers.\n\nBut these unexpected successes led to a massive spike in our costs for applications offered for free.\n\nAs a result, we have temporarily removed translations and left access to the articles’ original languages as well as English. Kagi Translate will be back in the coming days as a subscription-based service.\n\nThank you for your patience and your trust 🙏 we hope to have everything up and running again very soon!\n\n## Other improvements and bug fixes\n\n### Kagi Search\n\n- Missing/nonfunctional settings for Kid account\n[#10803](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10803)[@Acratoseek](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Acratoseek) - Searching for \"@import\" (with quotes) breaks search\n[#10866](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10866)[@RandallLeeds](https://kagifeedback.org/u/RandallLeeds) - Quick Answer followup question hangs\n[#10257](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10257)[@MustafaD](https://kagifeedback.org/u/MustafaD) - Any search that begins with \"what is\" shows translation widget before results\n[#10868](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10868)[@unknown](https://kagifeedback.org/u/unknown) - Missing/nonfunctional settings for Kid account\n[#10803](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10803)[@Acratoseek](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Acratoseek) - Irrelevant trigger of translate widget\n[#10865](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10865)[@dreifach](https://kagifeedback.org/u/dreifach) - Dice Rolling Widget fails with modifiers without space\n[#10834](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10834)[@adammakesfilm](https://kagifeedback.org/u/adammakesfilm) - False trigger of events/sports widget\n[#10908](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10908)[@dreifach](https://kagifeedback.org/u/dreifach)\n\n### Kagi Assistant\n\n- Kimi k2.6 retired in favour of k2.6 Code?\n[#10832](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10832)[@TimJay](https://kagifeedback.org/u/TimJay) - Allow customization of font size in Kagi Assistant\n[#8863](https://kagifeedback.org/d/8863)[@the_fork](https://kagifeedback.org/u/the_fork) - Kagi Assistant Code blank screen\n[#10844](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10844)[@JacksonNunley](https://kagifeedback.org/u/JacksonNunley) - Summarization of MP3s fails\n[#10804](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10804)[@YetAnotherUser](https://kagifeedback.org/u/YetAnotherUser) - The stop button in assistant often doesn't work\n[#9938](https://kagifeedback.org/d/9938)[@fxgn](https://kagifeedback.org/u/fxgn) - Models specified in URL parameters are overridden by the Default Assistant setting\n[#10084](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10084)[@ining](https://kagifeedback.org/u/ining) - Export to Markdown of large assistant thread omits first half\n[#10858](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10858)[@jonassmedegaard](https://kagifeedback.org/u/jonassmedegaard) - Include menu option to \"create new folder\" when filing an assistant thread\n[#10879](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10879)[@lolroger](https://kagifeedback.org/u/lolroger) - Even when the input box is expanded on Kagi assistant, the enter key submits the request\n[#10851](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10851)[@gm](https://kagifeedback.org/u/gm) - Assistant v2 Ignoring Personalized Results\n[#10864](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10864)[@Dustin](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Dustin) - Restore button for custom instructions for Assistants\n[#9502](https://kagifeedback.org/d/9502)[@Felensis](https://kagifeedback.org/u/Felensis) - Kagi Research Assistant misreads table from website\n[#10901](https://kagifeedback.org/d/10901)[@ionpac](https://kagifeedback.org/u/ionpac)", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/kagi-changelog-july-2-heads-tails-and-an-ai-toggle", "canonical_source": "https://kagi.com/changelog#10959", "published_at": "2026-07-03 20:08:01+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-03 21:34:09.228970+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-products", "ai-tools", "ai-ethics"], "entities": ["Kagi", "Orion", "Firefox", "Apple", "LiquidGlass"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/kagi-changelog-july-2-heads-tails-and-an-ai-toggle", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/kagi-changelog-july-2-heads-tails-and-an-ai-toggle.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/kagi-changelog-july-2-heads-tails-and-an-ai-toggle.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/kagi-changelog-july-2-heads-tails-and-an-ai-toggle.jsonld"}}
