What's New in Backstage
1.3.8
October 29, 2026
Backstage now looks right on the new foldable iPhone. • Open the phone and the screen uses the extra room: your artist card stays on the left, your week and studio on the right. • Controls keep clear of the camera and status area in every position, folded, open or side by side. • Closing or opening the phone never interrupts a career in progress. • Bigger, easier-to-hit buttons on charts and in the studio.
