1.6.0
🖥 Presenting, like Meet (but better)
- While someone shares their screen, the participants sit in a row above the shared screen. Tiles get smaller as more people join, down to a minimum size; after that the row scrolls (mouse wheel too). Works on phones as well.
✨ "Backgrounds and effects" side panel
- Replaces the old windows. It opens on the right like chat and polls, and full screen on phones.
- At the top, a live preview of yourself (only you see it). Below it, three tabs: Backgrounds, Face effects and Styles.
- The active choice is marked with a check, and the panel stays open while you try things. If your camera is off, there is a Turn on camera button.
- Open it from More, or from the ✨ button that appears when you hover over your own tile.
- Only one panel at a time: opening chat, people or polls closes it.
🖼 59 new backgrounds
- 56 photos: offices, living rooms, libraries, Cinque Terre, Venice, the Colosseum, nature, space, abstract and video games.

- The panel loads small thumbnails and fetches the full photo only when you pick it.
- A number in front of a file name sets the order and is not shown, so
03-meeting-room.jpgshows up third as "Meeting room".
🎨 More
- The animated shapes background now appears in calls too, always behind everything.
🛠 Fixes
- The speaking border no longer flickers in the pauses between words, for you or for the others. It now stays on until about a second of silence.
- Phone control bar during a presentation: with Present and Draw both visible, the buttons went off the screen. They now get slightly smaller, and none are removed.
