Lovable Update — January 2026

Here's everything that happened with Lovable recently:

Build credit top-ups

You can now purchase credit top-ups when you run out of build credits, without changing your subscription. Top-ups are billed as a one-time payment and added instantly to your workspace. Find it in Settings → Workspace → Plans & credits.

  • Available on Pro and Business plans
  • Purchased in 50-credit increments
  • Valid for 12 months from your most recent top-up purchase

GPT-5.2 and Gemini 3 Flash support

Lovable AI now supports GPT-5.2 and Gemini 3 Flash, giving you access to the latest models for building and iterating faster. Enable Lovable Cloud and AI to use these models. Gemini 3 Flash is now the default model.

Two-factor authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your Lovable account using an authenticator app (recommended) or SMS. This is a form of multi-factor authentication (MFA) that helps you protect your Lovable account. Find it in Settings → Account → Your account.

Lovable bonuses

Earn credits by completing simple actions:

  • Daily bonus: Send 25 messages to earn 5 credits (available to all users)
  • One-time bonuses: Add a custom domain or invite a collaborator to earn 5 credits (available to newly registered users from Jan 15, 2026)

Smarter agent capabilities

The Lovable agent continues to get more capable and helpful:

  • Generates videos when prompted
  • Suggests publishing at the right moment and opens the publish menu
  • Cleans up unused edge functions to keep projects tidy
  • Tests authenticated edge functions while you're logged in, improving reliability for features that require authentication
  • Responds faster by selecting relevant information more efficiently during generation
  • Understands TypeScript projects more deeply, with IDE-level code intelligence for types, references, and relationships

Smoother publishing experience

Publishing your app is now smoother and clearer:

  • You can generate logos, favicons, and Open Graph images by prompting the agent, making it easier to customize your app before publishing. These assets are then used automatically during publishing.
  • Publishing failures are now visible, with a built-in "Try to fix" action to help you recover.
  • Links and redirects for published apps are more reliable, with better awareness of deployed app URLs.

Better dashboard organization and navigation

  • New "Recent" projects section in the sidebar
  • Nested folders for better organization
  • Drag-and-drop support for projects and folders
  • Redesigned workspace selector, with better default ordering, the ability to reorder workspaces, improved visibility, and faster loading

Security center (v0.1)

A new security center gives admins a workspace-wide overview of security findings across projects, including code analysis statuses (errors, warnings, scan state) and dependency vulnerabilities with severity levels and affected projects. Find it in Settings → Workspace → Security center.

Redesigned "People" page

The "People" page has been updated with clearer separation between invitations and collaborators, improved searching and filtering, and more reliable sorting.

Improvements

  • Dependency vulnerability scanning is now available, with issues in project dependencies reported as security findings you can review and fix like other security issues, and surfaced to workspace admins in the new "Security center".
  • Lovable now offers a more native mobile experience across the app, with sheets replacing popovers for menus, navigation, and sharing. "Inbox" and "What's new" now live inside the top-right avatar menu.
  • Custom domain setup guidance has been improved, prompting users to add both www and non-www variants to avoid common configuration issues.
  • Payment issues are now surfaced inside the app, making it easier to spot and resolve failed or overdue payments.
  • You'll now receive reminders when rollover credits are about to expire, helping you avoid losing unused credits.
  • Chat now provides more natural next-step suggestions, helping you understand what to do after your first message.
  • Plan cards in chat mode have been standardized, with a single "Implement plan" action to streamline the flow.
  • Vitest is now included in the React template, enabling the agent to write and run tests without additional setup.
  • Speech-to-text has been upgraded to use the new ElevenLabs transcription model Scribe V2, improving accuracy, language detection, and transcription quality for voice input in Lovable chat and apps using ElevenLabs.
  • Project and workspace settings pages have been redesigned, replacing modals with dedicated pages while keeping the same settings and options.
