GPT-5.6 Premium Interaction & Mobile OS Redesign
Desktop taskbar selection now follows module changes immediately, while the six-item mobile Dock uses a shorter bar and clearer icon sizing.
# GPT-5.6 Premium Interaction & Mobile OS Redesign
This consolidated update keeps the Windows XP, pixel-art, and Y2K identity on desktop while refining mobile into a tighter and more readable original virtual phone OS.
## Site-wide calm motion reset
- Desktop Home App launches no longer create a full Home-screen snapshot. Only the destination window fades in and settles upward by 3px over 200ms, while the live wallpaper, top bar, and taskbar remain still.
- Desktop taskbar module changes reveal only the new active page with an approximately 200ms, ±6px slide. Returning Home animates only the icon group, so no Home snapshot can cover the taskbar.
- Mobile Dock changes use an approximately 220ms directional ±12px slide. One shared selection pill moves continuously between routes, and rapid taps skip the previous transition instead of producing a hard cut or ghost frame.
- Dialogs, windows, buttons, and theme changes now share low-displacement feedback. Reduced-motion and motion-off modes navigate immediately.
## A real mobile navigation Dock
- The mobile Appbar has a labeled Home button on the left and the current module name aligned on the right. Account and language controls remain Home-only.
- The frosted Dock persists across Apps with six high-frequency routes: Home, Knowledge, Videos, Resources, Games, and Chat. They center from 375px upward and briefly scroll at 359px; Notes and About remain available from Home.
- Browsers cannot reliably read an iPhone's real signal, Wi-Fi, or battery status, so decorative status glyphs were removed to avoid presenting simulated values as device state.
## Tighter Home and layered Apps
- Home icons fill left to right and top to bottom with fixed rows; hit areas hug the visible icon and label while retaining a 44px minimum.
- Knowledge, Videos, Resources, Games, Notes, Chat, and About keep a shared outer-frame, toolbar, tab, and content hierarchy.
- Frames use this site's four-time Neo-XP palette rather than copying reference colors or icons, and content remains adaptive in short portrait and landscape layouts.
Existing routes, APIs, D1 data, account sessions, game cloud saves, public and password chat, three-language content, video delivery, and telemetry privacy boundaries remain unchanged.
