Version-by-version tracking starts here, at 2.1. Everything before this point — Crash History, iPhone Import, B&W Auto-Recommend, Voice-Over, download diagnostics, Tor routing, and more — shipped under 2.0; see
What's New for that full history.
Version 2.4
September 2, 2026 · Windows & Linux September 4
Mac
Windows 11
Linux
- New: Synthetic Voice Dubbing — mutes the original speech and replaces it with a synthetic voice reading a translated .SRT, timed to the subtitles. Runs entirely on your Mac; no API key, account, or subscription, and nothing is uploaded
- 60 voices across 19 languages, including 20 English voices; models download once (63–79 MB) and are cached after that
- Voice Preview plays about 5 seconds of any voice before you download the full model — it streams a small sample clip, not the whole thing
- Dubbed lines are fit to their subtitle slot, capped at 1.6× speed — past that, speech stops being intelligible, so a line is allowed to run slightly long instead
- Option to keep the original audio quietly underneath rather than replacing it outright
- The app now detects what language a subtitle file is actually written in, preselects it, and warns you if the voice you picked speaks a different one — dubbing reads subtitles aloud, it does not translate them
- When a dub finishes you can play the result immediately or open its folder in Finder
- Fixed: subtitle cues containing nothing pronounceable (“...”, music symbols) were reported as failed segments instead of being skipped
- Fixed: the dubbed video could come back shorter than the original when the last spoken line ended before the video did
- Fixed: voice downloads and previews failed on some systems due to a missing certificate bundle in the packaged app
- Windows 11: Synthetic Voice Dubbing now available there too, with the espeak data path handled through a directory junction rather than a symlink (symlinks need Developer Mode or admin on Windows) and RAM detection added for the low-memory warning. Linux followed the same day
Version 2.3
August 25, 2026
Mac
Windows 11
Linux
- Downloads can now find and grab the video directly from many pages yt-dlp previously rejected outright with "Unsupported URL" — it locates the video source in the page itself instead of giving up
- Fixed a crash that could happen during those downloads
- Added a Tor toggle to the Download URLs dialog, with an optional Region and Country to control the exit location — turn it on to route that download through Tor
Version 2.2
August 22, 2026
Mac
Windows 11
Linux
- Smarter handling of "Access forbidden (403)" download failures — the app now recognizes this is usually yt-dlp falling behind a site change and offers a one-click "Update yt-dlp" fix directly in the error dialog, instead of just reporting the failure
- The bundled yt-dlp is now the nightly build instead of stable, for better day-to-day compatibility with site changes as they happen
- "What's New" button renamed to "Changelog" and now points here
Version 2.1

Mac
Windows 11
Linux
- Added in-app auto-update: the app checks for new versions on its own and shows a dismissible banner when one's available
- Download button in that banner works two ways — immediate download with a license key, or a fresh link emailed to you if you only have your purchase email
- Fixed a bug where the update check could silently fail with a certificate-verification error in the compiled app, so it never found new versions at all
