Downloads

  • macOS (Apple Silicon): excuse me-0.2.0-arm64.dmg
  • Windows 10/11 (x64): excuse me Setup 0.2.0.exe

New in 0.2.0

  • Watch together — paste a YouTube link (from the share picker) to play it in sync for the whole room. Everyone streams directly from YouTube at full quality; whoever starts it controls play / pause / seek, and late joiners jump to the current spot. Only playback commands cross the encrypted data channel.
  • Mic / camera / speaker selection with a live mic waveform (in the Audio & video panel).
  • Whiteboard — 7 preset colors + a custom color picker, clearer brush sizes, tool-aware cursor, and PNG export.
  • Copy meeting code now copies just the code (via the native clipboard).
  • Screen-share system audio works across platforms where the OS allows loopback capture.

Fixes

  • The packaged app no longer gets killed on launch by macOS (it was being signed with an Apple Development certificate Gatekeeper rejects). Builds are now ad-hoc signed.
  • Camera/mic permission is requested up front on macOS.

First-run notes

  • Unsigned builds: on macOS, if you see "Apple could not verify…", open System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway (works now). On Windows, choose More info → Run anyway.
  • macOS asks for Camera, Microphone and (for hosts) Local Network permission — allow all three.
  • Intel Mac build available on request (npx electron-builder --mac dmg --x64).
