Squish now integrates with Siri and Apple Shortcuts. Add text watermarks to videos or send them to the Batch queue without ever opening the app — just trigger your shortcut. Batch mode now supports custom output file names using {name}, {date}, and {resolution} tokens; retry failed jobs with a single tap; and apply a compression profile to all pending jobs at once. A live progress bar shows the overall batch progress with a real-time time estimate.
The welcome screen now shows all keyboard shortcuts at a glance. The full VoiceOver accessibility pass ensures every control has a label and a hint where it helps, and compression completion is announced automatically.
