We're excited to be shipping the next update of Camo Studio for Windows today. Lots has changed behind the scenes as we prepare for the release of new features — and for the beta of Camo for Android. 🎉

Camo Studio 1.2.2 is another minor update to iron out some more issues with audio.

If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

• Fix If you updated to macOS 11.1 on an M1 Mac, you might have noticed that Camo audio stopped appearing as a microphone. This should now be resolved.

Camo Studio 1.2.1 is a minor update to make it slightly clearer how to use audio from your iOS device.

If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

• Improvement Rather than saying "None" in Camo Studio before audio has been requested, it now says "Ready". As soon as you start to stream audio, your device's mics will appear. We're going to resolve this properly with our next update of the iOS app.

This is a minor update for Camo Studio for Windows, giving it compatibility with the upcoming 1.2 release of the iOS app.

• Improvement Support for Camo 1.2.
• Fix Headed off a potential future problem around backwards compatibility.

We're thrilled to be shipping Camo Studio 1.2 today. It introduces a big new feature: high quality audio support. Camo Studio now lets you choose between the different microphones your iOS devices have, and to use them in stereo where supported by your device. We've seen this compare very favourably to some of the external mics we've been testing with.

For this feature to appear in Camo Studio, an iOS app update is required. Apple have approved it for release, and it should appear for you in the App Store over the next few hours.

If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

We're thrilled to be releasing Camo Studio 1.1. This update paves the way for a number of features which will be enabled with a subsequent update of the Camo iOS app.

Once you've installed this update, you'll need to restart any apps using Camo's video on your Mac. If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

We've pushed audio support to 1.2, and we're expecting to ship that hot on the heels of this release. It looks — and sounds — great. Camo Studio for Windows is now in its 8th beta. If you're interested in trying it out, you can get on the list here.

• Feature Portrait mode preview. Look out for an update coming soon in the App Store to enable this.
• Feature Camo's status menu now shows a list of apps consuming video from Camo.
• Feature We've added new -install and -uninstall options for command-line users. Usage of these is documented in our FAQ.

• Improvement We've rearranged how we group controls in order make Camo Studio's layout clearer. Collapsed sections stay collapsed.
• Improvement Camo for iOS now indicates camera feature availability, which Camo Studio uses to selectively enable controls.

Today's update to Camo Studio is a minor update which includes a fix for users running macOS 10.14.

If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

Camo 1.1 is just around the corner, and we can't wait to share it with you. Camo Studio for Windows is now in its fourth beta, and it looks — and works — great. If you're interested in trying it out, you can get on the list here.

• Fix We've completed our earlier work resolving problems affecting some users running macOS 10.14. Sorry for the inconvenience. We'd love to read how you get on with it.

We're really excited to be shipping Camo 1.0.8 today. This includes a number of optimisations, fixes, and a big new feature: presets. Camo Studio includes a set of stock presets for all users to try out and experiment with.

This version of Camo Studio requires the latest version of Camo from the App Store to work: don't update this until you've updated your iOS device. If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

In the meantime, our work towards 1.1 continues, and things are looking good. Camo Studio for Windows is currently in its third beta, and it looks — and works — great. If you're interested in trying it out, you can get on the list here.

• Feature Presets are now live. We'd love to hear how you get on with them. Email us or tweet us.
• Improvement We've added a number of nice optimisations to help Camo run faster and with even lower latency.
• Fix We've resolved an issue where the iPhone's camera wouldn't go back to continuous auto-focus.

• Fix We've resolved a problem whereby some macOS 10.14 users would run into disconnect problems or experience memory leaks.

Life's been busy at Reincubate Towers as we work our way to the Camo 1.1 update. We've got a lot of neat things in the oven, waiting to come out. On that note, today marks the start of our private beta of Camo Studio for Windows. If you're interested in trying it out, you can get on the list here.

In the meantime, here's Camo Studio 1.0.7 for macOS, with more supported apps and a number of important quality of life fixes. If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

• Improvement We've added compatibility notes for Loom and vMix, and added a solution for using Photo Booth.
• Improvement Although Camo Studio doesn't mention it in its compatibility section, this update includes a number of tweaks to work with Panopto, our new unofficial BFFs. 🤝 Panopto doesn't support changes in aspect ratio (ie. 16:9 to 4:3, or portrait to landscape), but short of that things should be looking good. Please let us know how you get on with it. Maybe we can make things official with a follow-up next week.
• Improvement Camo Studio's side-bar sections are now collapsible. You can collapse them to make room for something. What, though? I suppose you'll find out in a few updates' time.
• Improvement We changed a number of things behind the scenes which should come into play when we ship the next Camo update on iOS.
• Fix Camo wasn't working with recording to iMovie or Final Cut Pro. Now it does. Hurrah. 🎉
• Fix Some users reported audio latency when using Camo to record in QuickTime or ScreenFlow. We've resolved that. We've still got some bumps to smooth out here, but you should have a better experience now.
• Fix Our integration with Hand Mirror was broken in the last release. Sorry. We've fixed that now.
• Fix Our license dialog did some slightly unintuitive things which we've fixed.

We've been hard at work on Camo over the last few weeks, getting closer our major 1.1 update. In the meantime, we've prepared this update to make Camo Studio more intuitive, and to resolve a small number of issues. We've not forgotten about presets, either — we want to make sure we get them just right, and they're not. Yet.

If you run into any problems, please reach out to us at support@reincubate.com. We'd love to help and hear from you.

• Improvement We've added compatibility notes for another 8 apps: CloudApp, Pearl, Pexip, Hand Mirror, Wirecast, RingCentral, YouTube and Panopto. We support 7 of those 8: if you know anyone at Panopto, please drop them a note on our behalf. Compatibility notes have been updated for Camtasia, and for QuickTime on Big Sur.
• Improvement Camo Studio's "Help" button is now called "Help & Integrations". It looks a bit less flash, but it's easier to find!
• Improvement We note that some USB hubs can cause connection issues in Camo Studio's main screen. More here.
• Improvement It was only 6 versions ago we wrote that a competitor copied the ID we use for Camo Studio, preventing it from working whilst both were installed. It's happened again. The price of being popular, eh? We've updated our ID again.
• Fix We've resolved a problem where older devices running iOS 12 (particularly the iPhone 5s, iPad Mini 2, and iPad Air 1) could encounter half of the image being chopped off. This version of Camo Studio includes a fix for that, but you'll need an updated version of Camo on your iOS device. That version (1.0.6) will be made available to our beta testers today, and should go live to all users later this week assuming that beta goes well.
• Fix The "Help" link in the Camo Studio installation dialog didn't go to the right place. Sorry. We've fixed that.
• Fix We've resolved a bug in Camo Studio that could crash it in unusual cases.
• Fix We've fixed an even less common bug which could cause strange image corruption. We didn't have a single user report of this, so possibly we only managed to trigger it in the lab. 🤷‍♂️
