Camo
release notes

Today's update fixes a couple of small but important bugs in preparation for our next major release of Camo Studio. Stay tuned!

• Fix We've fixed a bug which meant that after waking your Mac from sleep Camo Studio would sometimes show video in fast forward for a few seconds.
• Fix We’ve fixed a rare issue related to Camo’s audio which caused Camo to close when connected to Studio on certain phones.

Today's update to Camo Studio focuses on getting the small details right, while we prepare for our next major release. 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 Camo Studio no longer warns about use of USB hubs for users running through a Studio Display or Pro Display XDR. Because they're rock solid.
• Fix We've fixed a bug which meant that the white-balance shown in Camo Studio would not update when in auto mode.
• Fix We've fixed an issue which prevented the names of folders in the recording preferences window from being localised.
• Fix We've fixed an issue which meant it wasn't clear that a Camo Pro licence was required to manually control the camera focus in Camo Studio.
• Fix We've fixed an issue which was leading to some users being shown too many low battery notifications.
• Fix We've fixed a couple of rare issues which could have prevented Camo Studio from connecting to a phone.

We’re thrilled to launch a long-awaited feature in Camo: full compatibility with Safari, FaceTime, QuickTime, and more. This update also enables all third-party apps that previously relied on Camo’s integrations to work natively. Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, and others now run great with Camo without modification.

This new compatibility requires functionality we’ve built on top of macOS 12.3. For users on older versions of macOS, the pre-existing integration system remains in place. You can read more about this update on our blog.

Today’s release also contains lots of UI love, fixes, and Swedish words.
