# Product Updates — October 2026 > The app, the website and the Chrome extension fully redesigned, dark mode, safer card payments, and a dozen scraper upgrades. - **Author**: Sasha Bouloudnine - **Published**: 2026-10-25 (25 Oct 2026) - **Reading time**: 4 min - **Canonical**: https://www.lobstr.io/blog/october-2026 --- __We rebuilt everything. The app, the website, the extension. All of it.__ 🎨 __Every screen of app.lobstr.io is new.__ A calmer layout, dark mode, squid settings on one page, and billing where your card number goes to Stripe and never to us. The website followed the same day. __And the scrapers kept shipping.__ Trustpilot now reads sentiment, Facebook Marketplace stops billing listings outside your search, Reddit returns full posts with their top comments. Let's get into it. 👇 ## The new app 🎨 __Same squids, same runs, same API. Everything around them is new.__ The redesign isn't a coat of paint. Every screen was rebuilt: Overview, squids, runs, results, accounts, billing, settings. It's faster, it's calmer, and it finally has a dark mode... switched from the top bar, remembered across sessions. ![The new app 🎨](https://d37gzvgyugjozl.cloudfront.net/productupdatesoctober2026_overview_ffeec13350.png "width=1760;height=1100") The style is neo-brutalist... big type, hard edges, honest shadows. A tip of the hat to [neobrutalism.dev](https://www.neobrutalism.dev), which lit the way. The two screens you live in got the deepest work: * __The New squid window__... search all 80 scrapers as you type and create the squid in place, with smart task builders for Google Maps and Yelp that turn keywords and locations into search tasks. ![The new app 🎨 - The New squid window, in dark mode](https://d37gzvgyugjozl.cloudfront.net/productupdatesoctober2026_new_squid_window_73a09d90ae.png "width=1760;height=1100") * __Squid settings on one page__... accounts, tasks, options, schedule and launch together, built from each scraper's own schema, with the credit cost of every paid option stated next to it. A code view shows your squid as the API sees it. ![The new app 🎨 - Squid settings on one page](https://d37gzvgyugjozl.cloudfront.net/productupdatesoctober2026_squid_settings_0080db96d3.png "width=1760;height=1100") And billing is finally boring: adding a card runs through Stripe's own secure fields, 3D Secure included. lobstr.io never sees or stores the number. [Open the new app](https://app.lobstr.io) — everything you had is exactly where you left it. ## The new website 🌐 __The site caught up with the app, the same day.__ ![The new website 🌐](https://d37gzvgyugjozl.cloudfront.net/productupdatesoctober2026_new_home_81630c23ec.png "width=1760;height=1100") A store you can search, with all 80 scrapers under category tabs. Scraper pages with a playground: real sample rows, the schema, the price, before you sign up. Pricing said the way billing works... credits per unique result, duplicates free, a slider that tells you what you'll pay, yearly savings in dollars. ![The new website 🌐 - Pricing in unique results](https://d37gzvgyugjozl.cloudfront.net/productupdatesoctober2026_pricing_13348c67cf.png "width=1760;height=1100") And because half our visitors are starting to be agents, every page has a plain-text twin: a Copy Markdown button on every article, a .md URL for every page, an llms.txt index. [Visit the new site](https://www.lobstr.io) — and [book a demo](https://www.lobstr.io) from any page, no sales form. ## The Chrome extension, rebuilt 🧩 __Version 1.3.0: you see and confirm every single sync.__ ![The Chrome extension, rebuilt 🧩](https://d37gzvgyugjozl.cloudfront.net/productupdatesoctober2026_chrome_extension_d2bbb610af.png "width=1760;height=1100") The extension that connects your Leboncoin, LinkedIn or Sales Navigator session to lobstr.io was rebuilt from the ground up, in the app's new look. Nothing leaves your browser without you watching it happen: every transfer opens a confirmation window that names the site and the account, with a countdown and a "session sent" receipt. Site access is optional and granted per site. Only app.lobstr.io can request a session... no other page can even ask. When you're signed out of the site, you get a clean "not signed in" message instead of a failed sync. And it follows the app's theme, light or dark. Get it from your [Accounts page](https://app.lobstr.io), install in one minute: [how it works](https://www.lobstr.io/chrome-extension). ## Scrapers 🛠️ A redesign month, and still a dozen upgrades: * __[Trustpilot Reviews](https://www.lobstr.io/store/trustpilot-reviews-scraper)__... sentiment, topics, review lifecycle and company stats on every review, plus brand search: give a company name, we find the page * __[Facebook Marketplace](https://www.lobstr.io/store/facebook-marketplace-scraper)__... a Newer than filter, and results outside your search flagged, excluded and never billed * __[Reddit](https://www.lobstr.io/store/reddit-scraper)__... post bodies and community size on search results, optional top comments, a Sort Period for top and controversial, and bare post URLs accepted * __[Google Search](https://www.lobstr.io/store/google-search-scraper)__...
