SimplexityAI v5.0.0
This is the first major release under the SimplexityAI name — a complete rebrand and feature overhaul of the former Perplexity AI Desktop App. This release introduces a refreshed identity, a suite of new desktop-native features, and full CI/CD automation for all platforms.

Rebranding
- Renamed from "Perplexity AI App" to Simplexity AI
- New app ID:
com.inulute.simplexityai - Updated protocol scheme to
simplexity-ai-search:// - Refreshed color palette and UI theming throughout the application
- New platform-specific icons for Windows (.ico), macOS (.icns), and Linux (.png)
- Automatic settings migration from previous installations — no data loss on upgrade
New Features
Find in Page (Ctrl+F / Cmd+F)
A fully integrated find bar for searching text within the loaded page. Appears as a slim overlay at the top of the content area with real-time match highlighting and a live match counter (e.g., "3 / 15"). Navigate between matches with Enter / Shift+Enter or the arrow buttons. Press Escape to close.
Ctrl+Enter to Send
Optional setting that changes how the Perplexity textarea handles keypresses:
- Plain Enter inserts a newline instead of submitting
- Ctrl+Enter (or Cmd+Enter on macOS) submits the query
- Shift+Enter continues to insert a newline as before
Toggle this on or off in Settings. Disabled by default.
Zoom Controls
- Ctrl+= / Cmd+= to zoom in
- Ctrl+- / Cmd+- to zoom out
- Ctrl+0 / Cmd+0 to reset zoom
Zoom level persists within the session and adjusts the BrowserView content directly.
Close to Tray
Configurable behavior for the window close button:
- On (default): Clicking the X button minimizes the app to the system tray instead of quitting. A one-time notification informs the user on first use.
- Off: Clicking the X button quits the application entirely.
