AirBuddy 3 introduces a redesigned Action HUD that can be positioned anywhere along the top edge of the display.
The HUD supports both compact and expanded layouts, allowing users to choose the level of detail they prefer.
Users can customize which metrics appear in the HUD, such as battery levels for AirPods, iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch.
A new Dashboard adopts the Liquid Glass effect, providing a frosted‑glass glanceable screen for paired devices.
The Dashboard displays recent automation triggers and quick‑action tiles for common tasks like toggling Bluetooth.
Widgets are no longer confined to Notification Center and can be placed freely on the desktop.
Each widget supports interactive controls, enabling play/pause, track skipping, or opening the Now Playing interface.
The Now Playing feature shows album artwork, track titles, and playback progress with depth‑enhanced visual effects.
Color‑matching algorithms extract dominant hues from the current album cover to theme the widget dynamically.
Automation is expanded with AppleScript and Shortcuts support, allowing scripts to query device states and trigger actions.
The Audio Input Lock feature lets users lock preferred microphones to prevent unwanted input switching during calls.
Magic Handoff has been refined for near‑instantaneous reconnection of Magic Mouse, Keyboard, and Trackpad between Macs.
