Changelog

Shipped, take by take

Recent releases, newest first.

v1.17.2

CLI Version Alignment

  • The bundled command-line tool now reports the same version as the app, so version checks match the installed release.
v1.17.1

Recording, Editing & Export Reliability

  • Recording starts and stops more reliably. Rapid pause changes preserve timing, camera mute stays aligned with the recording, and new takes retain your chosen layout.
  • Music and voiceover imports open, validate, save, and undo correctly. Replacing a track preserves its settings and previous audio for Undo.
  • Stalled exports can be cancelled, failed exports preserve existing files, and cancelled batches finish cleanup before restarting. GIF timing now matches the edited duration.
  • Preview and Library navigation are more consistent. Unused interface code was removed, and missing accessibility and website translations were completed.
v1.17.0

Voice Actions & Accessible Editing

  • Voice Actions brings named controls for macOS Voice Control into a persistent editor panel: navigate by source time, frame, or captured click, select items, and edit caption or annotation text.
  • Add and move annotations, split and restore clips, and keep Undo, Redo, and Open export in reach. Available in English, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese.
  • The Record menu adds explicit Pause Recording and Resume Recording actions. Timeline and transcript controls expose clearer names and selection state.
  • Restoring a selected clip now preserves neighboring excluded footage.
v1.16.0

Polished UI

  • Refreshed Library, Settings, and theme surfaces make recordings and preferences easier to browse.
  • Settings switches align consistently, and the editor inspector groups controls into clearer sections.
v1.15.1

First Edit Flow & App Store Commerce

  • The editor now opens canvas-first with a concise review, split, polish, and export guide; selection-only controls stay hidden until needed.
  • Clip deletion requires an explicit selection, protects the final active clip, and keeps every timeline mutation undo-aware.
  • Recording controls have clearer horizontal separation and balanced edge padding without changing their target size.
  • The Mac App Store version now supports three approved optional one-time theme purchases.
  • Local StoreKit testing keeps real transactions out of development, while release validation checks the App Store purchase flow.
  • Region selection and the source picker now cover multi-display setups more reliably, and the control bar can move between displays.
v1.15.0

Foundations & Flow — clearer choices, stronger test seams

  • Library filtering now has a responsive toolbar, an explicit result count, and removable active-filter chips.
  • Cursor, background, webcam, branding, caption, General, and Recording controls use consistent segmented choices and focused settings panes.
  • Development builds cover the complete StoreKit lifecycle — products, prices, purchase, cancellation, pending approval, restore, refund, and revocation — without creating real transactions.
  • Release validation now checks theme entitlements and keeps development commerce configuration out of App Store builds.
  • CI now validates app and commerce behavior, localization completeness, and generated-project consistency.
  • Missing Chinese and Japanese editor strings are complete, and unsafe optional and index assumptions were removed from editor and export paths.
v1.14.2

Capture & Timeline Reliability — dependable recording fixes

  • The macOS sharing state now ends after recordings, preflight-only checks, setup cancellations, and startup failures.
  • Recordings survive Presenter Overlay format changes and fall back cleanly when HEVC with alpha is unavailable.
  • Caption and annotation pills can be lengthened or shortened by dragging their timeline edges, with larger grab areas and resize cursors.
  • Failed captures now show their recorded recovery reason instead of a generic failure.
  • Theme ordering, recording-control sizing and spacing, and the README logo path are consistent again.
  • Deleting caption or annotation tracks no longer crashes the editor, and the reveal action uses a supported macOS symbol.
v1.14.1

Theme-aware Controls — focused recording polish

  • The floating recording bar now adopts the active theme's colors and animated artwork, with clearer idle and live control trays.
  • Onboarding permission steps share one consistent Continue action without changing the guidance or system permission flow.
  • App Store packaging now verifies that only approved theme product identifiers are included.
  • Documentation now matches the current recording, editing, export, and purchase workflows; obsolete assets are gone.
v1.14.0

Library & Themes — find it, frame it, trust it

  • Five original themes arrive with matching project-local wallpapers. Banana Noir and Hokusai are included; Pop Banana, Utamaro, and Hiroshige are optional one-time App Store purchases.
  • The professional Library adds smart collections, favorites, grid/list views, compound filters, richer metadata, consistent multi-selection, and visible recovery items.
  • Global, app, and editor shortcuts now share one remappable registry with live menu/help updates and internal plus macOS conflict checks. The icon-only recording bar gets clearer group spacing.
  • Recording stop, cancel, failure, timeout, and quit now share one idempotent cleanup path, releasing camera, microphone, screen, system audio, previews, and writers before reporting success.
v1.13.0

Studio — a dark, three-pane editor

  • Three-pane studio editor — a sections rail (Frame · Webcam · Overlays · Motion · Audio · Script, ⌘1–6) that collapses to bare icons, the canvas in the middle, and a dedicated selection inspector on the right.
  • Dark mode + ambient themes — dark by default with a System/Light/Dark switch, and the chrome re-tints to the active theme’s ambience (leaf green, Friday Night crimson, Christmas gold).
  • Every caption and annotation owns its own scrollable timeline track, the transport tucks the time readout under its buttons, and Delete/arrow keys act reliably on selections.
v1.1.0

Broadcast — publish, on-brand

  • Branding Kit adds intro/outro cards and a corner watermark; Audio Ducking keeps music under speech; AI Publish Kit drafts title, description, and chapters from transcript plus markers.
  • Cursor spotlight + click sounds ship in preview and export parity, global record shortcuts are remappable with conflict badges, and long takes now transcribe past Whisper's 25 MB cap via silence-split chunking and timeline stitch.
v1.0.1

1.0.1 — polish over Showtime

  • Bundled background presets land in one click (Leica, Pikachu, Cyberpunk, Dopamine, Ocean Blue), each with a graceful fallback if the wallpaper file is missing.
  • Region recording gains a live boundary selector, plus a keyboard shortcut cheat sheet (?) that stays in sync with the app's real shortcut catalog.
  • The export flow is unified: single exports and recipe-backed export sets now live in one workspace instead of split sheets.
  • These changes shipped as build 45 to harden the 1.0 workflow before Broadcast.
v0.12.0

Christmas arrives

  • A new Christmas theme joins Friday Night — an evergreen backdrop with drifting snow, a twinkling tree, and gingerbread and stocking decorations. The app's logo and Dock icon dress for the season while it's active.
  • The site now calls out reframing any recording to 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, or 4:5 — landscape, Reels/TikTok/Shorts, or square posts.
  • Plus polish: Christmas no longer offers Friday Night's music track, two Settings buttons had gone untranslated, and the editor's Cover buttons and the site's own nav are fixed.
v0.11.7

Camera bubble polish

  • The live webcam preview is now a rounded, shadowed M3-style bubble, and rounded PiP is the default style for new recordings.
  • Camera-on recordings stop reliably: webcam session setup and teardown now run through one serial queue.
  • Shortcut panels across the app and site now share the same grouped layout and separated keycaps, with localization filled in.
v0.11.6

Zero-permission cursor capture

  • Cursor overlays, click ripples, and auto-zoom now need no permission — clicks and moves are read from public CoreGraphics state, so they work out of the box in both editions.
  • Recordings and exports always land in the real ~/Movies folders, and Settings gains Change… so the recordings folder can live anywhere — the pick survives relaunch.
v0.11.5

Decoration glow-up

  • The disco ball is now a real mirror-tile mosaic — top-lit facets, a hanger loop, and glints that twinkle in place instead of spinning with the ball. The wine glass gains a liquid surface, glassy tint, shine streaks, and sways on its base.
  • The Recording Check fixes permission problems where it reports them — Grant… and Open Settings… on every row — and warnings you've recorded through stop interrupting.
  • App relaunch reliability improved around local control handoff.
v0.11.4

Osmo becomes Verismo

  • New name across the app and documentation — existing recordings open unchanged.
  • Brand logo restored in the control bar and Library; the display typography slimmed from heavy to semibold.
v0.11.3

Lasers for everyone

  • The rotating laser rig now radiates from the disco ball too, so both party flourishes are lit consistently.
v0.11.2

Friday Night

  • Disco ball and wine glass frame decorations, plus rotating laser lights for the spinning-vinyl webcam — the Friday Night theme seeds them all on.
  • Smart Trim keeps the music bed continuous instead of cutting it at every filler word.
v0.11.1

Teleprompter tune-up

  • Speaker notes lay out at full height, scroll properly, and open at their intended size. Builds are signed under the new Apple Developer team.
v0.11.0

Speaker notes

  • A floating teleprompter you read while recording — auto-scroll or drag — that never appears in the capture. Fully localized (English, 简体中文, 日本語).
