This release makes Nova Search sharper on the inside and smoother on the outside. From a brand-new relevance system to mobile layout fixes, here’s everything new:
🔍 Smarter Search Results
We’ve introduced smart relevance guessing to improve how results are ordered. Our new algorithm scores and sorts based on:
-
Titles (highest weight)
-
Descriptions (medium weight)
-
URLs (lower weight)
-
Exact vs. partial matches
-
Filtering out common words to focus on meaningful terms
-
Bonus points for exact keyword matches
The algorithm is fully integrated into our smart layout system, so your results are still neatly organized, but now ranked in a way that feels more natural and useful.
📱 Mobile Experience Upgrades
-
Fixed an issue where Astro Overviews wouldn’t open on mobile.
-
Wikipedia Knowledge panels now collapse by default with a simple “expand” button for more reading.
-
Home page layout on mobile has been cleaned up for a much smoother look.
-
Added a scroll modal and redesigned header to give browsing a cleaner, more consistent feel.
📰 News Tab Improvements
- Articles in the News tab now display a Reliable Source tag, so you can quickly identify trustworthy content.
🎨 Design & UI Tweaks
- Made icons bigger across the app for better readability and accessibility.
⚡ Nova Search is now smarter, sharper, and more reliable: especially on mobile.
