- Download Allume for Mac, iPad & iPhone
4.0 Jun 11th, 2026
🎉 New Features
- Muse is now Allume: The app has a new name and brand. Onboarding, templates, and support and legal links now use Allume and allume.com, and the app opens shared board bundles in the new .allume format.
- Liquid Glass Redesign: Refreshed Mac and iPad with a liquid glass interface featuring a slim titlebar, redesigned breadcrumbs and toolbars, a repositioned bottom toolbar, and polished animations for showing and hiding the interface.
- Searchable Text in Images: Board search now finds image cards by the text inside them, with images scanned privately on-device.
- AI Assistant Integration (Mac): Connect Claude Desktop and other AI assistants using the new MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Assistants can list workspaces, search your boards, open documents, read board contents, create, edit, and delete cards, and browse and organize your inbox. Enable in Mac Preferences.
- Command Line Scripting: Use the new command line application to search, access, and export your notes, and create new boards and notes. CLI access can be configured independently from MCP, including a read-only mode for safer scripting.
