Progress

What is actually built.

An honest state of the work rather than a release history, because there has not been a release yet.

IN DEVELOPMENT · NO PUBLIC BUILD
WORKING

Capture and polish

  • Display and window capture on macOS, with optional microphone and webcam
  • A searchable recordings library — saved on stop, then reopened, duplicated, renamed, revealed or deleted
  • Timeline with trim handles, split, removing sections from the middle, and global playback speed
  • Crop with free and fixed aspect ratios, padding, corner radius and shadow
  • Camera bubble with shape, size, border and glass styling, in a corner or dragged anywhere on the recording
  • Redaction boxes, burned into the exported pixels rather than drawn over them — fixed, or following something as it moves, or a spotlight that dims everything else
  • Movable, individually coloured annotations — arrows, boxes, ovals, text and numbered steps — each able to appear and leave at its own time
  • Browser and phone device frames around the recording
  • Your edit is saved as you work and restored when you reopen a recording, with undo
  • Screen capture that leaves the mouse pointer out, so the pointer in the finished video is drawn rather than recorded — smoothed, resized, and pressing on each click
  • Cursor tracking, driving optional auto-zoom and a cursor highlight
  • Optional click-triggered punch-ins, with explicit macOS Accessibility permission
  • Optional keystroke overlay — off by default, marked while recording, and macOS keeps password fields out of it; the badges' placement, typeface, entrance motion and colour are all adjustable
  • A first-run screen stating every permission macOS gates, and what refusing each one costs
  • Manual zoom keyframes and automatic silence removal
  • Multiple saved recordings appended to one ordered timeline and exported as one file
  • Signed-update support, dormant until a public HTTPS release feed is configured
  • A local diagnostic log for operational errors, never recording content or sent anywhere
  • 181 background presets, and MP4, WebM or GIF export that runs on-device
IN PROGRESS

The parts that block a release

  • Code signing and notarisation, so the app opens on a machine that is not mine
  • Testing a signed build on hardware I did not build it on
  • System audio behaviour on macOS across different capture sources
NOT STARTED

Later

  • Windows and Linux builds. Not a packaging step — screen capture, system audio and the permission model are all different, so it is closer to a port
  • Presets that carry across recordings
