New: Scrambler Scramble any photo or video like a signal from something not of this world. Tear it, roll it, cut it into blocks, split the colours and bury it in static. Let it pulse in and out, hit on a tap, or follow the sound in the room, so it scrambles to a beat or a voice. Videos keep their sound, scrambled right along with the picture. Send it full screen to a TV over HDMI or AirPlay and run it live from your phone.

Version 1.6.9 introduces Operator (Beta), a full fake phone OS built for on-set prop work. Pull up a convincing home screen, status bar, contacts, messages, and mail — all live on camera. Blackbox and Go timers let you fire on cue, and timed notification banners open directly into your saved Chatterbox conversations, keeping scripted interactions seamless and shoot-ready. This update also patches a persistent timer crash that affected real device stability, fixes keyboard avoidance in the messages interface, and resolves CineVault poster accent color rendering and frame editor drag and face detection issues.

External Display Support Chroma Key on Any Screen: Tune your chroma key and tracking markers directly on the display you're shooting against - via USB-C/HDMI. RGB Lighting Goes Big: Control Kelvin, color, and full FX across any screen size on an external display. Your lighting setup, on the big screen. CineVault Comes Home: Full external display control means CineVault now lives where it was always meant to - your TV.

New Theme: Live Feed A dedicated theme for social broadcast simulations. Features include looping video slots, animated viewer counts, floating reactions, and a profile HUD. Accessible via the secret configuration menu with full control over UI scale and saturation. New Features • Middle Grey: Added a Middle Grey option to Chroma Key for commercial production per user requests. • Strike Up — Profile Grid: Added a new layout within the Strike Up theme to support browsing a user profile. • Live Feed — Return Video: Assign a secondary clip to any slot that triggers automatically when swiping back to a previous stream. • UI Saturation Slider: Camera-safe saturation controls for Live Feed and Stitch to prevent color blowout on high-end sensors. • Refined Scaling: Meaningful font size scaling for comments and emoji (85% to 125%). Bug Fixes • Chroma Key: The brightness slider now correctly controls in-app luminance without affecting system-level brightness. • Chatterbox: Resolved an issue where the keyboard would persist during scripted conversations; it now collapses correctly for "waiting" beats. • Audio Logic: Fixed a bug where audio would persist after a reset; triple-tapping now fully kills all active audio tracks. • UI Stability: Fixed "drifting" issues with the HUD and action bars in the Live Feed theme.
