This update improves speech recognition: faster, more reliable engine, clearer alerts if connection drops, and no more silent failures mid-rehearsal. Line-matching during performances is more accurate. Fixed several PDF import bugs affecting character names and dialogue formatting.

Manual mode: advance through your scene by tapping or the new Back/Next buttons — no speech recognition needed. Teleprompter now follows what you actually say instead of just counting words, so off-script chatter can't skip it ahead. Also: fixed the screen occasionally sleeping mid-performance, faster tap-to-skip response, and the Perform Scene options panel now starts collapsed for a cleaner view.

This update fixes two issues: Fixed a bug where trimming dead air from a recording could get stuck looping a fraction of a second of audio instead of playing the line. Collaborators with Record-only access can no longer use Dictate to change a line's text — Record now stays limited to attaching audio, as intended.

Perform Scene • Recordings now trim the dead air at the start and end of each line automatically (toggle in Options) • Tap the scene to skip a delay, recording playback, or listening wait • Redesigned Start/End markers with clearer drag handles • Perform Scene settings are now remembered per scene Dictation & Recording • Dictate is now its own button, separate from Record, so you can fill in a line without recording it • Record and Dictate respond instantly when tapped • Dictation stops automatically after a few seconds of silence • We now confirm before you dictate over a block that already has text • Fixed a rare issue where the start of a recording could get cut off • Fixed a bug where a recording could go missing after opening a shared scene on another device Sharing • Sharing a scene is now free — Pro is only needed to record or edit • Clearer progress while recordings upload during sharing • Share Scene now loads your friends list faster Import & Organization • AI Import is now the recommended way to bring in a PDF script, with a visual page picker for up to 5 pages • Added Copy, Edit, and Rename to scene menus • Friend lists are now alphabetized • Saving a new scene now opens it in view mode Reliability • Removed the persistent "offline" banner — you'll only see a connection message when something actually needs one • Fixed false "no internet" errors after resuming the app or on the subscription screen • Fixed a bug that could block creating a new scene right after unlocking your phone • Fixed a crash some devices could hit after an automatic update Plus a redesigned block toolbar and other polish throughout.
