Send used to be the last button on the right of the message box, and the mic sat on the left next to +, with the other input buttons. Now the mic is the last button on the right and Send is second to last. Inputs (+, mic) belong together on the left; Send is what you press when you're done, so it belongs at the end. Every user's hand still goes to the far right, so you finish a long prompt, click it, look away, and come back a minute later to find nothing sent because the app has been recording you the whole time.

Cost: Send is the most-clicked button in the app, and it now sits in a spot that makes no sense, next to a button that starts recording.

Fix: put the mic back next to + and Send back at the far right, or let users hide the mic.

Windows 11, desktop app, Code tab, Claude Code 2.1.300.
