Minor improvements

Quick Polish We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the massive Transcript and Chapter upgrades from our last update! We found a few loose screws left over after the launch and quickly tightened them up: • Target Practice: We made the toolbar buttons in the Transcript view larger so you don't need pinpoint precision to tap them. • Time-Traveling Player: Fixed the floating player so it correctly shows your progress for the current chapter when in Chapter mode, rather than showing the time for the whole episode. • Timestamp Consistency: Telling the transcript to hide timestamps will now properly hide them for chapter headers, too. • Crash Squashed: Fixed a bug that could crash the app when toggling chapters inside the transcript view.

Playback & Audio Enhancements • Better Audio Routing: Your playback position is now preserved if you're interrupted by a phone call or switch headphones (like reconnecting your AirPods). • Smarter Continuous Play: Continuous play now works for individual Shows, not just playlists. It also anticipates when you're nearing the end of an episode and pre-downloads the next one in the background to help prevent audio stalls. • Reliable Timers & Actions: The Sleep Timer now works consistently even if the app goes into the background. We’ve also tightened up Control Center syncing and made "play after download" much more responsive. Transcript & Chapter Upgrades • Unified Chapters & Transcripts: When available, chapters now act as headers directly within the transcript view, making it much easier to read along and find your place. • Chapter Player Controls: The player now features dedicated chapter controls, allowing you to easily skip and scrub through audio within individual chapters. • Quick Copy: You can now copy transcript text per chapter directly to your clipboard to easily save or share quotes. • Easy Toggling: A new toggle lets you switch between viewing the transcript on its own or alongside the chapter list. Library & Performance Polish • Enhanced Playlist Sorting: You can now organize your playlists by sorting them alphabetically by title (A-Z or Z-A). • Smoother Scrolling: Under-the-hood improvements make fast-scrolling through long playlists noticeably smoother and less jumpy. • Library Tweaks: You'll spot a new "Add Playlist" icon in your Library view, plus new links to our YouTube playlist and Subreddit if you want to join the community. • Mac & iPad Polish: Stability improvements and dedicated new episode notifications specifically tailored for (iPad) Mac users.

Under-the-hood optimizations and minor improvements

Visualizer Upgrades & Export Polish • Next-Level Visualizers: We've completely revamped visualizers for Clip Export. Enjoy new circular and rounded waveforms that can be moved freely around your canvas. We’ve also added snap-to alignment guides so your audiograms look perfectly positioned. • Quick Audio Visuals: You can now see real-time playback visualizers right inside the Quick Audio settings view. • Save to Photos: Sharing is easier than ever with a new, direct "Save to Photos" option for your exported clips. Player & Playback Enhancements • Bigger Controls: We’ve widened the tap areas on the player buttons so they’re much easier to hit on the go. • Smarter Speed Menu: The playback speed menu is now scrollable, features a dedicated "Reset to 1.0x" button at the top, and lets you simply tap-and-hold the menu to instantly reset your speed. • Audio Fixes: We've improved pitch correction when changing playback speeds and resolved an issue that caused a robotic voice effect when switching back to 1.0x speed on iOS 26. Library Organization • The Add view now highlights your last imported files and shows. • Rename imported files directly via swipe or the context menu, and custom playlists now feature a direct import option. Under the Hood • Assorted UI layout fixes (including iPadOS 26 tab view adjustments), better memory management, and overall performance boosts to keep your listening experience smooth.

Holiday Hotfix: The Elves Checked the List Twice! It turns out the North Pole workshop was a little too eager after the big launch: Caption Chaos: The elves were so proud of the new captions that they were wrapping them into every clip package, even if you didn't ask for them! We’ve reminded them to follow the gift tags—now captions will only appear when you want them to. Sleigh Control: Fixed a slippery bug where the timeline would lose its grip when loading a new file. Everything is now properly clamped down so your clip limits stay exactly where they belong. Thank you for your feedback, and keep those clips coming!

Shape Your Sound, Share Your Way. This update introduces Clip Export, a powerful new way to turn audio moments into beautiful videos for social media. • Share Clip (Export): Select any segment of a podcast and export it as a video. Perfect for Instagram Stories, TikTok, or YouTube. • Total Creative Control: Choose between Story, Square, and Landscape layouts. Customize the background with colors or blurred episode art. • Dynamic Transcripts: If a transcript is available, you can burn it directly into the video with multiple highlighting styles. • Precision Editing: Use the timeline zoom, loop mode, and "snap to playhead" features to find the exact moment you want to share. • Custom Templates: Found a look you love? Save your layout, colors, and visualization styles as a template to reuse for future clips. Transcript Improvements: • Better Search: Fixed an issue where the search bar was obscured in the transcript view. • Smart Copy: "Copy All" now intelligently respects your active search results. Thank you for using the app and keep sending bug reports and feature suggestions.
