Every detail considered

Great software isn’t just about big features. It’s also about craftsmanship: the way things snap into place, the absence of friction, and the feeling that everything just works. When details are off, you notice. When they’re right, you don’t have to think about them at all. This update makes Runway more thoughtfully designed in ways that add up.

Cleaner UI

• Higher contrast for better readability, without feeling harsh
• More refined accent colors that guide—not distract
• Redesigned block empty states—no more placeholder data that looked too real and left you wondering, is this mine?

Icons that make scanning easier

We’ve relied on emojis as a visual shorthand since the early days of Runway, but they had problems: too colorful, too inconsistent, and harder to scan—especially in a busy sidebar…

Icons fix this.

• 1,000+ professional-grade icons in nine colors
• Easier on the eyes, making pages and sections more scannable
• Fully keyboard-navigable, searchable, and easy to assign
• Automatically applied anywhere emojis were used before

Renaming made simpler

Even something as simple as renaming a page should feel effortless. Now it does.

• Inline renaming for a more fluid experience
• More space for long names, so you can always see what you’re editing
• No more getting stuck mid-edit—everything works exactly as expected

Every pixel, every interaction—it all matters. This update is about making Runway feel as good as it looks.
