Hey 👋
v0.1.24 is live.
This release introduces a new way to extend the editor with the Apps system, and makes the mobile experience significantly better.
Let's dive in.
🧩 Apps System - Extend Your Editor
We're experimenting with Apps - specialized tools that extend the editor's functionality.
Press Alt+4 to open the Apps panel.
📝 Simple Caption App (First App!)
The first app is Simple Caption - a dedicated interface for adding captions to your videos.
Here's how it works:
- Open the app via Alt+4 or the Apps icon
- Edit captions in the app interface
- Auto-insert text elements directly into your project
- Seamless integration with the timeline
Why this matters:
- Focused workflow - dedicated space for caption editing
- Faster captioning - streamlined interface for text work
- More to come - this is just the beginning
We're planning more apps to help with common video editing tasks. Think: color grading, audio mixing, template management, and more.
📱 Mobile UX Overhaul - Bottom Navigation
Mobile editing just got way better.
The sidebar is now a bottom tab bar on mobile devices.
What changed:
- Bottom tabs replace the traditional sidebar on mobile
- Tap to open drawer - access tools without blocking the canvas
- Native mobile feel - aligns with mobile app conventions
- More screen space - better use of vertical real estate
This is how mobile apps are supposed to feel. We're bringing that same polish to video editing.
🎨 Menubar Refinements
Small but meaningful UI improvements:
- File menu now displays with a MenuIcon instead of text
- Cleaner menubar - more visual, less cluttered
- Consistent iconography across the interface
What's Next?
We're continuing to focus on:
- More Apps - what would you like to see?
- Mobile polish - making every interaction smooth
- Performance - keeping everything fast
