Renders keep going when you leave On iOS and iPadOS 26, a render keeps running after you switch apps, with its progress in a Live Activity. If iOS needs that time back, the render pauses instead of stopping and carries on when you return. Save anywhere, at any size When a render finishes, the save sheet is waiting, even if it finished while you were in another app. Save to Files takes every format at any size, 12K included; Save to Photos is there for videos and images. Know what happened A notification tells you when a render is done, needs the app, or was paused. If iOS closes ManimStudio mid-render, the terminal says so when you reopen it. 8K, 12K and 14K The quality list now goes up to 14K. 8K renders even on devices whose H.264 encoder stops at 4K, by switching to HEVC. Encoding controls Choose the encoder and how many frames may wait for it, for Preview and Render alike. The panel shows what this device's hardware can encode at the size you picked. Stop really stops Stop now answers within moments, even during slow setup before the first frame. Present any render Presentation mode opens a library of every earlier render, each labelled with its resolution, codec, frame rate and length. A key row for touch typing Extra keys above the on-screen keyboard: esc, ctrl, tab, arrows and symbols in the terminal; indent, brackets, undo and completion in the editor. A more capable terminal Every command in help works or explains why it can't. Run JavaScript with js and node, compile plain TeX, and open what pdflatex, md and nb produce. requests makes HTTPS calls and scikit-learn imports.

Apple Pencil to Manim Sketch on iPad and turn it into code. Circles, squares, rectangles, polygons, lines and freehand curves are recognised and converted into editable Manim Python. Entirely on-device. Presentation mode Play your latest render full screen, looping, with no interface in the way. Connect a TV or projector and it mirrors cleanly for teaching and talks. Custom output size Set an exact width and height, with one-tap presets for 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 and 16:9. Vertical and square exports for social, without leaving the app. Transparent backgrounds The new MOV format renders a real alpha channel, so an animation drops straight into Keynote or a video editor over your own footage. Renders that actually finish The screen no longer sleeps part way through a long render. And a pre-flight check now warns you before starting a render that will not fit in memory, offering a quality that will. Sharper mathematical text Unicode maths renders properly. Double-struck letters, subscripts, superscripts and mathematical alphanumerics no longer vanish from Text(). A rebuilt System tab Live memory and storage meters, thermal state, real details of the bundled Python environment, and a one-tap diagnostics report to attach to bug reports. Editor-first workspace Workspace opens on the editor, split positions persist between launches, and a command palette puts render, file and view actions one shortcut away. Also in this release Library snippets insert with correct indentation, the memory graph is clearly labelled, and finished renders can be dragged straight into other apps.

Version 1.3 — a big iPhone update, plus speed and polish across the board. • Redesigned for iPhone: a native bottom tab bar, the workspace now opens straight to the code editor, and tactile haptic feedback throughout. • Make it yours: pick a custom accent color that retints the whole app. • Faster everywhere: the Packages browser and code autocomplete now open instantly. • Smarter editor: full offline autocomplete for Manim, NumPy, SciPy, SymPy, Matplotlib and more, the moment you start typing. • Flexible output: export as MP4, GIF, or HTML, with separate preview and final quality, frame rate, and an adjustable terminal font. • Fixes & polish: animated GIF saving, accurate version info, and a range of stability improvements. Thanks for using Manim Animation Studio — rendered entirely on-device, fully offline.

Korean and Simplified Chinese text in Text() mobjects now renders correctly (Noto Sans SC/KR bundled). UTF-8 file I/O fixes Unicode crashes in third-party libraries. LaTeX: math fractions with nested subscripts no longer silently drop braces. HTTPS works on first try — requests, urllib3, certifi and friends are bundled. Bundled extras: mpmath, PyYAML, jsonschema, attrs, fsspec, filelock, regex, fontTools. Preview pane plays any render size or length reliably (new WKWebView-based player). Copy buttons show a "Copied" confirmation when tapped. Renders keep going briefly when you switch apps or lock the screen.

certain MathTex expressions containing \frac{X}{Y} (where X ends in }) failed to render. LaTeX routing now matches the underlying library's default — simple expressions go through SwiftMath, complex/CJK content through xelatex.
