Arduino® App Lab 0.6: more control, more Bricks, faster AI

We’re excited to announce Arduino App Lab 0.6, a release that makes managing your Arduino® UNO™ Q board easier, extends your creative toolkit, and brings AI capabilities right to your fingertips.

A new settings page in Arduino App Lab

The standout feature in 0.6 is the new board settings page. Think of it as mission control for your UNO Q: everything you need to know about your board in one place. At a glance, you can see your firmware version, operating system details, and whether updates are available.

You can also access your board’s serial identifiers, system specs, kernel information, and configuration options like external sensor support, keyboard language, and remote access.

No more hunting through menus or switching between tools. It’s the kind of feature that just makes sense once you start using it.

New Bricks, new examples in Arduino App Lab!

The 0.6 release brings fresh Bricks to your toolbox:

• Sound Generator Brick: Create audio feedback, alarms, or musical elements with ease.
• Telegram Bot Brick: Connect your projects to Telegram for notifications, remote control, and more.
• Automatic Speech Recognition (Cloud) Brick: Build voice-controlled projects without the complexity of managing inference pipelines yourself.

And here is something every beginner (and veteran) will appreciate: every Brick now includes a basic use example. 

For instance, here are a few more examples that show what is possible:

• Telegram Bot: See how to wire up messaging and commands.

• Music Composer: Turn your UNO Q into a musical instrument.

• Cloud AI Assistant: Explore conversational AI integration.

As a reminder, you can save a copy of any of these pre-built examples into your own apps in the Arduino App Lab, then run it quickly on your UNO Q.
