Changelog
All the updates, improvements, and fixes in Tuka.
Updated 7/6/2026
- NewTuka Lens (Beta) — your recording, understood entirely on your Mac: clicks labeled with the real buttons you pressed, a screen-by-screen journey, chapters, and one-click dead-air trimming. Nothing leaves your machine.
- NewSearchable demos — exported artifacts now include chapters, clickable steps, live captions and instant search across everything that was said or shown on screen. Still a single file that plays anywhere.
- FixedEvidence dossier — export a shareable report of your recording (what was clicked, where, when), and let AI agents read your recording's timeline to write bug reports and tutorials for you.
- NewSharper shared demos — zoomed-in moments stay crisp while files stay small, and the export window now shows the estimated file size before you render.
- NewExports now match the editor preview exactly — every aspect ratio, every resolution, every capture mode.
- NewNew projects default to Native export resolution, so zoomed text stays readable out of the box.
- NewA custom zoom focus placed in the editor is now always respected in the exported video.
- NewTurning off the Loading Pet in Settings now applies to exports immediately.
- NewNotion artifacts no longer play back as a black screen on some recordings.
- NewNew "Notion" export format — screen recordings now play interactively right inside a Notion page when you upload the exported file, instead of showing up as a plain attachment.
- NewShared interactive demos are now much smaller, play in every browser, and are far easier to drop into a doc or page — the player is built around a standard video element instead of a custom canvas.
- NewNew "fragment" export for interactive demos emits just the player component (no page wrapper), so it embeds cleanly into an existing page, iframe, or doc.
- ImprovedThe exported demo's player is a clean, self-contained component with minimal controls (play/pause, replay, speed, scrub) and a graceful message if the video can't load.
- NewCrop & corners editor — adjust a recording's crop and rounded corners together in one place, non-destructively, and the cursor stays aligned with the content.
- NewRemember a crop and corners per source — turn it on and Tuka reuses them automatically the next time you record the same app or monitor.
- NewiOS Simulator recordings keep a small safety margin around the device, so you can fine-tune the crop later without losing edge pixels.
- NewThe iPhone frame for Simulator recordings no longer doubles the Dynamic Island — it uses a clean frame so the device's real one shows through, on any model.
- NewCrop and corner settings now persist correctly when you reopen a project.
- NewRecording the iOS Simulator now crops precisely to the device screen on more setups — no stray device bezel sneaking into the frame, including on larger displays.
- NewRecording the iOS Simulator now adapts to any device — iPhone or iPad. Tuka detects the exact screen and rounds the corners to match the real device automatically, instead of assuming one model.
- NewAn iPad recording no longer keeps an iPhone-style frame that couldn't be turned off.
- NewRecord the iOS Simulator and get just the iPhone screen — Tuka detects the device, trims the window chrome, and frames it like a real phone automatically.
- NewOptional iPhone frame for Simulator recordings — wrap your screen in a clean device mockup with one toggle.
- NewCamera shadow is now adjustable — tune its softness and strength, or turn it off, right from the camera panel.
- FixedFixed a crash that could occur when exporting an interactive demo (artifact) on a fresh install.
- NewShare a screen demo as a single interactive file — the recording plays right inside it, with no upload and no player to install. Drop it into a PR walkthrough, a doc, or an internal page.
- NewNew animated mascot intro you can add to the start of your exports.
- ImprovedExports now keep the exact playback speed you set in the editor.
- NewMore accurate recording start and tighter microphone sync.
- NewReplay now works in shared interactive demos without reloading the page.
- NewMore reliable recording of physical Android devices.
- FixedIf an Android device recording is interrupted before it finishes, Tuka now shows a clearer explanation of what went wrong instead of a confusing error.
- NewRecording a physical Android device now captures the whole session — it was being cut down to about a second.
- NewThe camera and microphone menus in the recording bar open instantly instead of briefly freezing.
- NewThe editor now releases playback resources when you close a project, keeping memory use lower over long sessions.
- NewBefore & After — record two captures at different times (the same app across versions, two devices, or a simulator) and Tuka lines them up side by side in a single video. Beta — turn it on in Settings.
- NewSmoother zoom that follows the action, with crisper magnified detail.
- NewSnappier cursor that morphs between pointer and text shapes, plus 120fps and 140fps export options.
- NewiPhone and Android recordings no longer show a stray gray panel behind the device frame.
- NewSecret Masking looks cleaner (no stray border) and flags far fewer false positives.
- NewProjects open showing the first frame right away instead of a blank editor.
