FAQ

Where is the All Tools page?

The All Tools page was removed from Runway on April 10, 2026, and some of the Magic Tools that were previously available there have been deprecated. These tools were no longer being actively maintained, and our development resources have been redirected toward creating more advanced and integrated solutions.

Why am I being redirected to Tools and Apps when I navigate to a Magic Tool?

As part of the April 10, 2026 changes, standalone features on the All Tools page have been moved to their updated experiences within Apps and Tool Mode.
