Release history
Release history
From 1.4 to 2.9, each major version moved the product one step forward. The small patches in between — wording, spacing, a broken button — are folded into the version they belong to, so this page shows nine milestones rather than two hundred releases.
How to read this: versions run newest to oldest; the entries inside each block are all the small releases of that version merged together, not a per-release log.

AI joins the review, online notes become a sendable link
- MCP integration: FitCheck plugs into WorkBuddy, Claude, Cursor and VS Code, so an agent can read the clip, read the notes and write its own. One click writes the config and runs a handshake to prove it works.
- Rules for AI: it signs as “model + review role”, keeps a note under 40 characters, cannot pick its own role, and cannot submit on anyone’s behalf.
- Review progress is visible: the client-side indicator has four states — reading, thinking, writing, done.
- Notes you can send directly: own-domain link plus a 6-digit passcode, 10GB of traffic per room, expiry of 3 hours / 1 day / 3 days.
- Review lives inside the app: note list with thumbnails, timecodes and authors; edit in place, delete, expand long text, select and copy.
- Brand completed: desktop icon, taskbar, installer properties and credits all carry our own name.

Choose the proxy quality
- Four tiers for the proxy sent to clients: Smooth (long side 1280) / Standard / High (crf 19, for product texture and subtitle edges) / Custom.
- Several clips transcode at once and each reports its own progress instead of sharing one bar.

Shapes drawn on the web now render in the app
- The crosshair (a cross across the whole frame) and the vertical subtitle band drawn in the browser now display properly on the desktop — they used to come in blank.
- Vertical bands count as subtitles, so reports no longer file them under picture notes.

New name, window clone, light and dark themes
- Renamed to INSIGHT FitCheck — window title, icon, installer and credits all followed.
- Window clone A / B: one window for one clip, a second for another, each labelled, neither displacing the other.
- Light mode: warm paper and frosted panels, switched from the top bar and remembered.
- Single-pass transcoding: bitrate is computed up front, so a three-minute 1080p clip is encoded once instead of twice — half the wait.
- Annotation details: a colour band shows who wrote each note, sealed pages after submission, thumbnails loaded on demand.

Light mode
- A light theme: warm paper background with frosted glass panels, matching the website.
- A sun / moon button in the top bar flips between them and remembers the choice.

Two windows reviewing at once
- The cloned window can join the same online session, so both windows show the same review.
- The top bar states “in review / needs changes / approved” directly instead of relying on a phone call.
- Reports can rename clients in bulk, hide the cover frame, and draw the annotation boxes on each platform.
- Proxies are compressed under 100MB; the proxy is prepared in the background as soon as a clip enters the timeline.

Online annotation shipped
- Share links run on our own domain; clients land on a passcode page and enter a 4-digit code.
- Status light: amber uploading, green ready, flashing white while someone is annotating, grey finished, red unreachable.
- Chunked upload: clips over 60MB now finish instead of being rejected outright.
- A client’s note triggers a sound and a system notification; clicking it jumps to that frame.
- Coordinates are computed against the picture itself, excluding letterboxing, so both ends finally line up.

Interface rebuilt, notes split by timecode
- Notes are recorded per timecode: previously every stroke landed on the same note regardless of where the timeline sat.
- The preview rail and filmstrip fill the width proportionally; no clip is dropped and no card is cut in half.
- The desktop widget became a phone shell: metal frame, cast shadow, screen set into the body.
- The startup sequence uses the real wordmark with a short fade-in and de-blur.
- Playback stutter fixed: background imagery competing with video was dropping over 30% of frames.

The report page and the desktop app take shape
- A report page: the left side is the export as it will look, the right side edits the title and adds a note.
- Each platform screen carries real interface chrome: status bar, action rail, caption area, progress bar.
- The window became a native Windows window: edge snapping, double-click to maximise, system buttons.
- The timeline allocates width by clip length, so the whole strip fills the row exactly.
- The top bar became borderless text navigation with a short underline for the current section.
