What’s new
Version 2.0.1 · Updated October 12, 2026
ADJUSTMENTS AFTER 2.0 CUES TAB - The main action sits centred with clear space to the other actions, so Lunch is not tapped by accident - Global Cues stay at the top and step aside while an action runs - Crew count in the Crew tab title, new check-in and check-out symbols GLOBAL CUES - Switch Global Cues off per production (Production Settings > Global Cues) FIXES - An app out of step with the server drops the production so you can rejoin with the QR code, instead of showing you as checked out - The device that answers "Available" shows you checked in right away - Chat: photos without a caption stand on their own, reactions sit on the bubble's corner
