New stream settings menu - A new gear button in the top bar opens the stream settings: source name, resolution, frame rate, OMT quality and orientation, all in one place. - The top bar now just shows the current resolution and frame rate, so the camera screen stays clean. - Source name and quality are locked while you are live, so nothing changes by accident during a show. Orientation lock - New "Lock on start" mode: the stream keeps the orientation it started in until you stop it. Turning the phone while live no longer changes the frame size seen by vMix. - "Auto" still follows the phone's rotation, as before. Start the stream automatically - New option to start streaming as soon as the app opens, with no need to tap record. It is off by default, and skipped if the device is overheating. Exposure by drag - After tapping to focus, drag up on the image to brighten or down to darken, in 0.1 EV steps. The value stays in sync with Exposure compensation in the camera settings. Improvements - The camera settings panel no longer dims the preview, so you can judge exposure and white balance on the real image. - Lens buttons are easier to hit, and taps near the controls no longer move the focus by mistake. - After a slowdown caused by heat, stopping the stream now brings back your own resolution, frame rate and quality. - Long source names are now handled correctly for discovery on the network.

NEW: CAMERA SETTINGS A new settings button next to the microphone lets you adjust the picture, even while you're live. - Stabilization: Off, Standard, Cinematic, or Low latency (iOS 26 and later). Stabilization crops the image slightly, and Standard and Cinematic add latency. - White balance: Auto, Lock, or Manual with temperature and tint controls. - Exposure compensation from −3 to +3 EV. - Settings are saved between sessions. The button turns yellow when a manual setting is active. ALSO NEW - Time and battery level are now visible at the top of the screen during streams. BUG FIXES - Rotating between the two landscape orientations no longer interrupts the stream on the receiver. - Tap-to-focus only reacts to taps on the video image, not on the black bars or the controls. - Releasing a pinch-to-zoom no longer triggers a focus change. - The focus indicator stays inside the image and no longer disappears early.

• Pro unlock now works offline. If you've purchased Pro, OMTake remembers it on the device: no watermark and no upgrade prompt, even with no internet connection, after a reinstall, or right after a cold start. The very first frame you send is already clean. • Updated OMT engine for better stability and compatibility with vMix and other OMT receivers on your network. • OMTake now requires iOS 16.6 or later. Found a bug or have a feature request? We'd love to hear from you.

OMTake 1.3 makes your stream steadier under pressure — and makes going watermark-free clearer than ever. • Remove the watermark in one tap. A clear "Remove watermark" button is now easy to find in both portrait and landscape, and the OMTake Pro screen spells out what you get: a clean, professional feed plus better performance — without the overlay, your camera streams directly instead of being composited onto every frame, lowering CPU and memory use. • Broadcast-safe when it heats up. If the device warms up, OMTake now eases the frame rate within the same broadcast family (PAL stays PAL, NTSC stays NTSC) instead of switching cadence, so your receiver never sees judder. The live indicator shows the real frame rate being sent. • Live status stays visible in landscape. The on-air / fps indicator no longer disappears when you rotate the device. • Cleaner network discovery. Stopping a stream now tells receivers to drop the source right away, so it re-appears cleanly the next time you go live. • More accurate tap-to-focus. Tapping the preview now focuses exactly where you tap. • Orientation-aware streaming. The preview stays steady while the outgoing stream follows the device orientation. Thanks for using OMTake!

Version 1.2 What's new: • Orientation-aware streaming — rotate your iPhone and the video sent to vMix rotates with it, while your on-screen viewfinder stays steady. • More reliable on-air tally — the red/green border and on-air light now hold up correctly, including when you rotate the device mid-stream. • Full quality under heat — when your iPhone gets warm, OMTake protects your feed instead of dropping its resolution or frame rate. Your stream stays clean for every viewer. • Sharper tap-to-focus — focus now lands exactly where you tap. • Smoother zoom across the ultra-wide, wide and telephoto lenses. • Your resolution, frame rate and quality (LQ/MQ/HQ) are now remembered between sessions. • Stability improvements and bug fixes, including a fix for a freeze when stopping a stream.

Version 1.1 — Orientation-aware streaming & faster pipeline NEW Orientation-aware streaming — hold your iPhone portrait or landscape and OMTake now sends the correct orientation to vMix and other OMT receivers in real time. The on-device preview stays locked in portrait so your framing never jumps while you shoot. NV12 capture pipeline — the camera now captures in native biplanar YUV (NV12) instead of BGRA. Lower CPU load, less heat, and more headroom for sustained HD/UHD/4K streaming. Persistent settings — resolution, frame rate, OMT quality, source name, mic mute and camera selection are saved automatically and restored on the next launch. IMPROVED Smoother stop/restart — fixed a UI freeze that could occur when stopping the stream, with additional race-condition guards in the sender lifecycle. Sharper watermark — now drawn directly on the Y plane, no extra color-space conversion. Refined top bar — better spacing and safe-area handling on notched and Dynamic Island devices. Better camera handling — improved tap-to-focus and pinch-to-zoom across front, back, ultra-wide and telephoto lens switches. Thermal feedback — clearer status display when the device throttles under sustained load. COMPATIBILITY Now iPhone-only (iPad target removed to focus on handheld camera work). Thanks to everyone testing OMTake on real vMix setups — your feedback shapes every update.
