Version v3.2.0
Released on July 17, 2026
Trails® 3 leaves beta. For years, making links behave meant teaching Horse each website’s private habits, one bug report at a time. That approach is retired. Horse now lets a site do its peculiar little thing, watches what actually happened, and builds the right Trail around it. Sitting on top of that are the two parts you will actually notice: a Back button that finally understands Trails, and a small box that tells you where a link goes before you commit to it.

- Back and Forward travel through both a page’s own history and the Trails you followed to get there. Use the toolbar buttons, Command+[ and Command+], a two-finger trackpad swipe, or the side buttons on a mouse.
- Hover a link and a small box in the bottom corner shows where it leads, then fills in that page’s title and icon, or tells you when the destination is already one of your Trails.
- Links on GitHub and other app-like sites open as the right Subtrail instead of replacing the page you were reading.
- Clicking a photo that opens a lightbox opens the lightbox, instead of killing it and branching off to the raw image.
- “Sign in with…” buttons inside a page branch a Trail instead of replacing the page you were on.
- Pressing Enter on a focused link branches a Trail, the same as clicking it.
- Pages that quietly rename their own address, including Wikipedia aliases, reopen the Trail you already have instead of growing duplicates.
- Reopening a destination you already have no longer replaces the title of the Trail you came from with its address.
- Downloading a file and then going Back no longer leaves a duplicate Trail behind.
- While a Subtrail is opening, the Trail you are leaving stays exactly as it is. The destination and its loading appear in that corner box instead.
- The emoji picker searches by name and keyword, shows a description for every emoji, and includes the newest ones.
