1.7.2
Hexncoin gets its own app. The platform story used to live in a modal you reached from the menu bar, which meant the introduction was something you had to know to look for rather than something sitting on the desktop beside everything else. The new Hexncoin app is that introduction in a window: what the system is, a step-by-step guide to the dock and Spotlight and keyboard shortcuts, a browsable list of what is installed with a tap to open it, and a plain-language summary of what connecting a wallet actually costs. It ships pre-installed as a system app, and on a phone the dock on a fresh profile now opens with Hexncoin, Terminal, System Preferences and App Center in that order, so the first four icons answer the questions a new visitor is most likely to have before they go hunting through the grid.

Highlights
- 01
Hexncoin, an app that introduces the platform
Four tabs in one window. Welcome states what Hexncoin is, the headline figures and the pillars the rest of the system is built on. Quick guide walks through wallet login, the Dock, windows, Spotlight, Settings and the phone home screen, and lists every keyboard shortcut with the keys you can rebind in System Preferences. Apps shows what is installed today, grouped by category, with one tap to open any of them. Security states what connecting a wallet costs, the four trust points in plain words, and what each class of app is allowed to ask for. Copy comes from the same record the About panel and the site read, so the story cannot drift.

A dock that starts with the essentials
On a fresh phone profile the dock used to open with four finance apps, which assumed you already knew what Hexncoin was and what you wanted to trade. It now opens with Hexncoin, Terminal, System Preferences and App Center, in that order: the introduction, a command line, the place to configure the system and the catalogue for everything else. The tray is still yours to rearrange, and whatever you settle on is remembered; this is only the starting arrangement for someone who has not touched it yet.
