Improved stability for the merge & compress feature. [Diagnostic Info on Errors] When an error occurs during video merging or compression, the app now displays detailed diagnostic information — including file details, available storage, and error codes — right in the alert. A single screenshot gives our support team everything they need to help you quickly. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to drop us a line through the in-app support email.

New users now get a beautifully crafted, 5-screen welcome guide on first launch! [Welcome to Mugen Camera] When you open the app for the first time, a series of five stunning screens walks you through everything you need to know. Rich background imagery and smooth animations introduce the app's philosophy, core features, and how to get started. [See Auto-Split in Action] A live timeline animation demonstrates how recordings are automatically split into smaller files — no interruptions, no lost footage. You'll understand the magic of non-stop recording before you even hit the record button. [Permissions Made Easy] Camera, microphone, and location permissions are requested naturally as part of the welcome flow. If a permission isn't granted, the app guides you straight to Settings so nothing stands in your way. We're always working to make Mugen Camera better. Drop us a line through the in-app support email — we'd love to hear what you think.

We've optimized the app's look and feel for Dark Mode. [Dark Mode Visual Tuning] The accent color throughout the app now adapts naturally to your display setting. In Dark Mode, colors are lighter and easier on the eyes, while Light Mode keeps its rich, deep tones — a more comfortable experience no matter how you use your device. Got feedback or ideas? We're all ears — reach out anytime via the in-app support email.

We've refined the app's screens and rebuilt its foundation from the ground up.

These texts were previously showing in Japanese for non-Japanese users. Got feedback or ideas? We'd love to hear from you — reach out anytime through the in-app support email.

We've added customizable long-press duration for the recording stop button, giving you more control over accidental stops! [Customizable Long-Press Duration for Stop] When "Long Press to Stop Recording" is enabled, you can now choose how long you need to press — anywhere from 1 to 5 seconds. Whether you're filming at a crowded event or a busy location, setting a longer press duration ensures that an accidental touch won't interrupt your recording. Changes take effect instantly, so you can adapt on the fly. [Improved Settings Readability] We've overhauled text display across every settings screen. Even with larger text sizes enabled in iOS Accessibility settings, every option name now wraps naturally across multiple lines instead of being cut off. No matter your preferred text size, you'll always be able to read the full name of every setting at a glance. We're always listening and improving. Have thoughts or suggestions? Drop us a line through the in-app support email — we'd love to hear from you.

[SF Symbols Icon Overhaul] Every settings item has been updated from emoji icons to Apple's official SF Symbols. These vector icons automatically scale with your text size preferences, delivering a consistent look across all screens — just like Apple's own apps. [Modernized UI Components] Toggles, Pickers, and NavigationLinks have been rewritten using the latest SwiftUI patterns, with standardized close buttons and modern layouts following Apple's current best practices. We're always working to bring you the latest Apple technologies. Have feedback or ideas? Drop us a line through the in-app support email.

We've deeply explored the latest audio input APIs introduced in iOS 26 and brought powerful external microphone support to Mugen Camera! 【External Microphone Selection】 Leveraging the new AVInputPickerInteraction API in iOS 26, you can now choose your preferred microphone directly from the recording screen. AirPods, DJI Mic, USB-C audio devices, and other connected inputs are displayed in a list with real-time sound level metering. Your selection is remembered across sessions, so you never have to pick again. 【AirPods High-Quality Recording Mode】 We've also adopted the new Bluetooth High-Quality Recording capability available in iOS 26. Compared to traditional Bluetooth HFP, the audio quality is significantly improved, making AirPods a serious option as a wireless microphone. The high-quality mode is automatically selected on supported devices and gracefully falls back on others. 【External Mic Disconnection Handling】 If an external microphone is disconnected during recording, the app seamlessly switches to the built-in microphone and continues capturing. You'll receive an on-screen notification so you can keep focusing on your shoot with confidence. 【Translation Quality Improvements】 We fixed untranslated text in the photo library permission alerts, ensuring all messages display correctly in English. We're committed to staying on the cutting edge. Got ideas or feedback? Drop us a line via the in-app support email anytime.

Items that were previously untranslated, such as HDR labels, are now properly localized. 【English Expression Consistency】 We reviewed all English text across the app to ensure natural, unified expressions.
