What's new

The running record of what has changed in Miracue, newest first. It is built by a small studio and it moves quickly, so this page is the honest way to see where the work goes.

updated 8 September 2026

September 2026

v0.39.24
  • The full screen button is there on a computer. It was only ever offered on phones and tablets, so on a computer there was no way back into full screen once it was lost - and losing it is ordinary: granting the microphone does it, and so does Escape. The message that said "the full screen button brings it back" was pointing at a button that did not exist. It now sits in the controls next to the mirror. Call mode is the exception, and deliberately so: that window is meant to stay docked beside your call.

September 2026

v0.39
  • Miracue for Chrome. The teleprompter now comes as a Chrome extension that opens in the browser's side panel, beside the tab you are working in - a call, a document, a recording page - instead of over it. It is the same prompter and the same on-device voice follow: paste and read with no account and no time limit, and when you are signed in on miracue.app your library is there too. It asks Chrome for the side panel, storage and miracue.app, and nothing else. Add it from the Chrome Web Store.
  • The line you are reading now rides the middle of the zone. Voice follow used to hold your spoken line on the zone's top line, so jumping back a line put the words you were re-reading above the zone, looking already-finished. The spoken line now sits on the middle line of three: re-reads stay inside the zone, and a real jump back lands mid-zone. The live dot in the top bar also stopped being clipped when it swells.
  • The voice indicators breathe with your voice. While voice follow listens, the red dot and the reading zone's glow now swell and settle with your actual level rather than blinking on a timer - so a glance says not just that the microphone is on, but that it is hearing you. Silence keeps a slow calm breath.
  • The editor says what it is, and teaches its keys. The script sheet and the app's text fields now carry a visible edge that answers your hover and a full ring while you write, so an editable surface never has to be guessed at. And beneath the shoot rail on a computer, a small Keyboard shortcuts card lists the prompter's keys - Space, B for a chapter, the brackets, M, V and the rest. Number-pad remotes and clickers send the same codes, so learning one teaches the other.
  • A soft landing after a read from the teleprompter page. Finishing a read that began on miracue.app/teleprompter now ends with one quiet card saying where you are: the free app, with your script saved in its library on this device. Shown once, only after a real read, never for signed-in readers.
  • The teleprompter gets its own page. miracue.app/teleprompter is a free teleprompter you can use the moment you land: paste your script, press Start reading, and the full prompter opens with it - voice follow, mirror and remotes included. The script stays on your device as a guest script, yours to keep.
  • A friendlier ending for shared scripts. When someone sends you a script by link or QR code and you finish the read, Miracue now mentions the obvious quietly: the script stays yours on that device, and writing your own is one tap away. Once, only after the prompter closes, and never for signed-in readers.
  • Name a new folder as you move scripts into it. Choosing New folder in the Move dialog now opens the name field right there, in the same dialog, instead of handing you to a second prompt.
  • Call mode, for reading on a video call. Start a script with the phone side of the Start prompter button, or from the phone that appears on a script card under your mouse, and the prompter opens docked instead of taking the screen over - so it stays in the narrow window under your camera while Zoom, Teams or Meet runs beside it. The mirror and full-screen buttons leave the row to keep it compact; voice follow keeps its seat, and the controls fade while the words roll exactly as on a normal read. Already reading when a call starts? On a call… in the display settings switches over.
  • The pin: a floating window that stays on top of the call. In call mode, on Chrome, Edge and other Chromium browsers, the pin button lifts the prompter into a small window that keeps itself above every other window, the call included. Click the words to pause and resume - there is no play button in a window this small - and the rail keeps just speed, chapters when the script has them, and unpin. The tab meanwhile says the script is pinned rather than sitting empty. Closing the pin puts the script back with your place kept. Every free account gets three pinned calls to try it; Pro has no limit. A pin that is open never expires.

September 2026

v0.38
  • Text copied from a PDF reads properly. A PDF copy carries the PDF's own line endings, so lines broke mid-sentence on the prompter. Pasting now joins the broken lines and makes hyphen-split words whole, with one tap to undo. Paragraphs, lists and your own line breaks stay as they are, and Import does the same for its preview.
  • Emoji are cleaned off a pasted script. You cannot read an emoji aloud, so on the prompter they are noise between the words. Pasting now strips them - flags, keycaps and all - and tidies the spacing left behind, with one tap to undo. Your words are never touched: capitals and phrasing stay exactly as written.
  • Send feedback from inside the app. In the help menu and on the account page: tell us what is missing or what gets in the way, and a human reads every word. Your message is saved before it is emailed, so a mail hiccup can never lose it.
  • One quiet question, once. Miracue keeps no analytics, so asking is the only way we ever learn anything. A small card in the library may ask how you found Miracue, or mark a milestone as your scripts add up. At most one per visit, never the same one twice, and ignoring it counts as an answer.
  • Occasional emails about Miracue, only if you choose. A new preference on the account page, off unless you turn it on, one click to leave. The privacy page and How it works now say exactly what we send and when.
  • Export everything. Your data, on the account page: one button builds a zip in your browser and downloads it, nothing touches a server. Folders become directories, scripts become text files named from their titles with their chapters and shot list inside, a Pro take's voice note comes out as its audio beside a transcript, and a manifest lists every file with its date and word count. Guests get the same from the help menu, for the scripts in their browser. The card remembers when you last exported, and the delete-account sheet points at it first.
  • Fixed: the cards and list buttons stayed put when you switch between them, instead of sliding sideways as the row beside them changed.
  • A first script in every new account. "Read me first" now waits in a new account's library as it does for guests, saying what the free account holds and what Pro adds.
  • Ask for a refund from your plan card. For 14 days after a payment the account page offers it: press, confirm, and we refund in full with no reason needed. Pro switches off the moment Paddle approves the refund, and a cancellation lapses three days after it takes effect. The tour has a Skip for now.
  • Fixed: on Android the account page could jump to the top of a section and turn a tap into a text selection, because the page was refreshed underneath you; it now holds still.
  • Fixed: coming back from Paddle's billing page on an iPad or a phone left Receipts and billing stuck on "Opening…"; it is a button again, and the plan card re-reads itself.

September 2026

v0.37
  • Start prompter under your thumb. On a phone or a portrait iPad it is a full-width bar at the foot of the editor, and the shots, takes and chapters sit in a drawer just above it: tap a tab to open, tap it again to close.
  • The editor has one toolbar. Back, the title, the folder and Start prompter, with everything else behind the three dots. The script's notes stand in a rail at the edge of the screen on a desktop, with the shot list's print at its foot.
  • The list is the on-set view. Scripts share one card, the head keeps the day's score ("2 of 12 done"), finished scripts strike through, and the next one to film carries the filled play. In the grid, Select gathers its actions in one dark bar at the foot, and you can share the scripts you picked as one link.
  • The bin says how long it will keep things. Every row shows its days left, with Restore and Delete now beside it, and Empty the bin waits quietly at the bottom.
  • Import shows you what it found before anything lands. The scripts it split out are a ticked list; untick any you do not want, then add the rest in one go. Choose a file is a proper button, and the AI prompt sits as a footnote for messy documents.
  • The tour has a Back button and lights the part of the screen it is talking about. Deleting an account asks for your email before the button will do anything, and Keep my account is the one that stands out. Your plan card shows the renewal date.

September 2026

v0.36
  • Sliders that take a thumb. In the prompter settings, press anywhere on a row and the value follows your finger; a minus and plus sit either side for fine steps. The sheet fades while you drag so you can see the text change.
  • The script starts where you read. The first line sits one line below the reading line, and the lines already read dim as they pass.
  • One row of controls on a phone, and a thinner one in landscape so the script keeps the height.
  • A chapter from wherever you are. On a touch screen a floating bookmark in the editor drops a chapter at the cursor, keyboard up or not. Beside it, a button hides the keyboard or brings it back.
  • Fixed: a shared QR code scanned into a phone that already had Miracue open showed the old library instead of the shared script. Fixed: the New button vanished while editing, leaving only its arrow. Fixed: on an iPad the editor could show beneath the prompter's controls.

September 2026

v0.35
  • Your account has a page. Profile, plan and billing, sign-in, devices and preferences in one place, with the delete option at the very end of it rather than next to the password box. The avatar shows your Google photo when Google signed you in.
  • Devices. See everywhere your account is signed in and sign one out. Free keeps two devices signed in at once and Pro three; a further sign-in asks which to let go, and nothing is ever signed out without you choosing.
  • Two menus instead of one. Your avatar holds account, devices and sign out; the question mark holds help, the tour, what's new and contact. The Bin now sits at the foot of the library, where files live.
  • A short tour on first sign-in, four steps, with a real "don't show this again" tick. It is always in the help menu if you want it back.
  • Coloured folders keep their colour in the list view. Sessions no longer expire after 24 idle minutes: signing in once really does last.

September 2026

v0.34
  • Miracue Pro. The teleprompter stays free. Pro adds the shoot-day toolkit - projects and folders, shot lists, takes and voice notes, and the full shoot document to print - for $49 a year, or once with Founder Lifetime. Anything you made before stays readable whatever your plan. See the pricing page.

27 August 2026

v0.33
  • Folders can carry a colour. Open a folder's menu and tap one of six muted presets; the folder's tab and a small dot take the colour, so a client or a project is recognisable across the library at a glance. Paper stays the default.

27 August 2026

v0.32.9
  • A calmer import window. Paste, split, and the rest appears only when it is needed. The AI prompt now asks for a .txt file as well, the lightest thing to import, and its article shows a script before and after treatment side by side.

27 August 2026

v0.32.8
  • Name the folder as you import. Splitting a document into a new folder now asks what to call it, with the document's name as the suggestion.
  • The AI prompt is one click away. A messy or very long document, the kind an AI writes with headings and emojis all over it, can be tidied before import: copy the prompt from the import window, run your document through your AI, and paste the result. It comes back as clean production scripts with clear separation, and anything hours long is split into manageable parts.

27 August 2026

v0.32.7
  • Importing a document is now one solid step. Saving an import used to make a request per script and could fail part-way through, leaving half a document behind. It is now a single step: everything arrives together, or nothing does and the app says why. The splitter also recognises numbered series properly - "Social 1", "Social 2" and so on each become their own script, whatever their titles say - and a bare section heading is no longer imported as an empty script.
  • You can see that you are signed in. A small badge with your initial now sits in the top corner; it opens your account.

24 August 2026

v0.32
  • Miracue works offline. Open it once with internet and it stays on your device: the app, your scripts and voice follow all run without a connection, and it tells you the moment it is stored. Signed-in libraries keep a reading copy on the device, opening read-only until the connection returns.
  • iPad fixes. A tap during voice follow brings full screen back, and the page behind the prompter can no longer peek through.

21 August 2026

v0.31
  • Free accounts. Sign in with an email link, a six-digit code or Google, and your library opens on any device. Guest mode continues, and signing in offers to bring your guest scripts with you.
  • Encrypted at rest. Account scripts are stored encrypted; deleting your account destroys its key, which makes every stored copy permanently unreadable, backups included.
  • Share scripts and Link a device. A share link carries your library and expires in seven days; a device links with a 60-second, single-use QR code.
  • Shoot-day fixes. A touch never pauses voice follow, the mirror flips vertically for beam-splitter rigs, full screen begins with play, and the voice engine recovers itself.
  • Get in touch is a form, and every message is kept.

14 August 2026

v0.26
  • Chapters. Marks became Chapters: numbered discs in the editor margin, buttons down the prompter's edge for tablets, and stepping works in both directions, scrolling or still.
  • A number pad drives the whole prompter. Play, jump, speed, mirror, add a chapter, and a knob that scrolls the script by hand. An inexpensive Bluetooth number pad is now the simplest remote you can buy for it.
  • Reading comfort. Narrow-column margins, adjustable line spacing, justified text gone, and changing size or spacing keeps your place.

11 August 2026

v0.25
  • The editor, rebuilt around the script. Bookmarks, takes and the shot list share one tabbed panel beside the script, the writing box grows with what you write, and delete moved out of harm's way.

11 August 2026

v0.24
  • A library of cards. Scripts show their opening lines on card faces, folders are folder-shaped tiles, and you can select several at once, drag them into folders with an undo, and search everything you have.

10 August 2026

v0.22 and v0.23
  • Bookmarks. Press B while reading to mark a safe point and 1 to 9 to jump back; on a clicker, a quick double-tap of the back button walks through them. Set and name them from the editor too, and start the read from any word you tap.

6 August 2026

v0.20 and v0.21
  • Shot lists. Every script can carry the B-roll the edit will need; tick shots off as they are captured, and print the script with its shots on clean A4.
  • Takes and voice notes. Log takes as you shoot, star the keeper, and leave a note against any take - typed, or spoken and transcribed on your device.

1 August 2026

v0.17.5 to v0.19
  • Easier on the eyes, easier to install. Five reading-colour pairs, text up to 96, a movable reading line, an install route on every device, honest full-screen guidance for iPad browsers, and this page. Steadier editing on iPad too.

28 to 30 July 2026

v0.15 to v0.17.4
  • Voice follow grew up. Recognition moved off the page's thread so scrolling stays smooth, the speech model downloads once and stays on your device, pacing quickened, and full screen became a choice on touch devices. Phone layout tidied throughout.

26 to 27 July 2026

v0.8 to v0.14
  • The working library. Skip-proof voice matching, document import that survives real pastes, a 30-day bin, batch select and ordering, QR device sign-in, and Bluetooth clickers and foot pedals driving the prompter.

25 July 2026

v0.1 to v0.7
  • Miracue launched. An editor with folders and a saved library, a prompter with countdown and mirror modes, voice follow running entirely on your device, and guest mode with encrypted travel links.
