What’s new.

Livelier motion, a cleaner frame, a steadier camera cutout, smaller videos and safer projects. New recordings get the new looks. Older projects keep theirs, and you can turn each one on in the editor.

• New: Lively motion. Zooms, pans and the cursor start quickly and settle without bouncing.
• New: Every cursor shape is the same size, the cursor no longer flickers over links and window edges, it hides while you type, and it can lean as it moves.
• New: Smooth corners, light from one side, even gradients, and a background that softly blurs while you're zoomed in.
• New: 4:5 format for feed posts.
• New: Steady cutout. Framecast finds your outline once for the whole video, so the edge holds still and playback is lighter.
• New: Edge softness and edge inset for the camera cutout, color files (.cube) and film grain for your camera.
• New: Your camera blurs softly as it fades in and out, and a split screen turns into the camera bubble while you're zoomed in.
• Improved: On Macs with Apple silicon, H.264 exports are about 25–65% smaller at the same quality. Parts where little moves take almost no space.
• New: Press 1–9 to set a zoom's level. Copy and paste the settings of a zoom, layout, mask or note with ⌘C and ⌘V.
• New: Hover an empty Zoom, Layout or Mask track to see where a click adds one, and drag to choose how long it is.
• New: The Dock icon shows a dot while you record and a progress bar while you export.
• Improved: Shared presets bring their pictures and camera color file along, so they look the same on another Mac.
• New: Mute when not talking. The microphone goes quiet between sentences, so typing and room noise drop out.
• Improved: In new transcripts, captions show each word when it's said. In new recordings, caption lines stay short so long words don't make the text smaller.
• New: Framecast watches your free disk space while you record. It warns you below 3 GB, and below 1 GB it stops and saves your recording.
• New: A soft sound when recording starts and stops. You hear it; your recording doesn't. Turn it off in Settings › Recording.
• New: If your pointer is enlarged in System Settings, the recording bar tells you before you record.
• Improved: Your voice stays in sync if your microphone cuts out for a moment, and sound is never dropped when your Mac is busy.
• Improved: Each project keeps a short recording log that helps if you contact support. It stays on your Mac and is left out of shared projects.
• New: Projects show a picture of the video in Finder and Quick Look.
• Improved: Every save keeps the previous version of your edits as a backup.
• Fixed: A project whose edits file was damaged no longer opens empty. Framecast opens the last saved copy, keeps the damaged file, and tells you.
• Fixed: Opening a project made with a newer version of Framecast no longer drops zooms or settings. A copy of the original is kept first.
• Fixed: Opening and closing a project without changes no longer rewrites it, and changes made just before quitting are saved.
• Fixed: When your changes can't be saved, Framecast now says so.
• Fixed: Typing in the editor's text fields no longer triggers editing shortcuts.
• Fixed: A crash when undoing a mask, note or zoom you had just added.
• Fixed: Starting a recording could wrongly say Screen Recording permission was missing when macOS was only slow to answer.

Small improvements to sharing.

• Improved: share passwords need at least 6 characters.
• Fixed: when a share upload can't finish, Framecast now tells you why.

Every update, included.

• New: buying Framecast once now includes every future update, with nothing to renew. Settings › License says so.

A fresh new look.

• New: a new app icon and logo. You'll see it in the Dock, in the menu bar and around the app.

Editing is smoother, especially on long recordings, and clicks sound like a real mouse.

• Improved: dragging sliders, moving zooms and playing back stay smooth, including on long recordings.
• Improved: while paused, the preview shows each change the moment you make it.
• New: smooth scrubbing for sharp recordings. Dragging the playhead through Retina, 4K and 5K recordings keeps up with your hand. You can turn it off in Settings.
• New: Faster encoding, in the export options. Exports finish sooner where your Mac allows it, with files a little bigger.
• New: click sounds are now real mouse recordings. Pick Crisp, Classic or Clicky. You hear the press when you click and the release when you let go.
• Improved: while you record, the controls sit at the bottom center of the screen, where the recording bar was.
• Fixed: the Number, Text, Arrow and Box buttons on the Annotations tab no longer spill out of their outlines.
• Fixed: after a window was snapped into a corner of the screen, the editor no longer keeps opening small in that corner.

Your share links are easier to see and send.

• Fixed: a new share link no longer disappears after a few seconds. A card shows the upload as it goes, then your link with Copy, Open and Send…, and it stays until you close it.
• Fixed: on the card after recording, a share link now stays until you close it, with Copy and Open.
• New: Show share link brings back the last link you shared. Right-click a recording in the library, or press ⌘K in the editor.

Share links now work out of the box.

• New: Share link just works with your license. Framecast hosts your links, with nothing to set up, and your license includes 25 GB for them.
• New: see every link you've shared, how much space they take, and delete them, at framecast.pro/account. Settings › Sharing shows your storage too.
• New: every share page has a Report button.
• Fixed: big videos and projects upload more reliably. If your connection drops for a moment, the upload carries on.

Three new ways to make your videos look like yours.

• New: add your logo once and it shows in a corner of every video, moving out of your camera's way. Find it in the Background tab.
• New: blur the room behind your webcam, or put a picture behind you. It all happens on your Mac. Find it in the Camera tab.
• New: 3D tilt. While zoomed in, your screen turns toward your pointer in perspective. Turn it on in the Zoom tab.

• Fixed: changes on your account page, like removing a Mac, resetting your key or renewing updates, now reach Framecast right away instead of a few days later.

Privacy and security fixes. We recommend updating.

• Blurs hide what they cover everywhere: under the loupe, with any number of blurs on screen, and while the screen stays still.
• Guides and click-through demos only show what you typed if you turn it on, and never text under a blur or in a password field.
• Muted parts of a recording stay out of captions, transcripts and shared projects.
• Keys typed into password fields aren't stored with your recording.
• Shared projects leave out window titles and app, Mac and device names.
• Framecast checks for private info before every share, from the editor, the library or right after recording.
• A project can only use files inside it, so a project someone sends you can't reach other files on your Mac.
• Links on websites that import a project or activate a license now ask you first.

Exporting now needs a license. Without one, Framecast still records and edits with every feature, for as long as you like.

• No more “Made with Framecast” badge on exported videos.
• When you try to export without a license, Framecast tells you, with buttons to buy one or enter your key.

The first release. Record your screen, window or an area, and Framecast makes it look edited: zooms that follow your

clicks, a smooth cursor, backgrounds, your camera, captions made on your Mac, and a timeline editor to finish it.
