What's New in D

2.9.1

October 28, 2026

UPDATES You can now buy Pro without an account. Signing in is optional and adds Pro on your other devices. Starting a new recording keeps the one that was open. It stays in your list as it was, and nothing is deleted. With Pro, record asks one question when a recording is open: START NEW RECORDING, or CONTINUE, ADD TO THE END. Tick Always do this to skip it next time, and change it in Settings under WHEN A RECORDING IS OPEN. Fixed: signing out during a recording could lose what was said after. D-REC now stops and saves the recording first. Fixed: after you signed out and back in, the recording you had open now comes back on the deck, with its words. Fixed: the iPhone microphone notice could keep coming back during a recording. It now shows only when the microphone changes. While you record, D-REC leaves the phone's audio settings alone and plays no key clicks. Buttons still give a tap you can feel. DELETE ALL RECORDINGS now sits under the recordings list. It asks first, you hold the button to confirm, and UNDO works for 8 seconds. If the phone's volume is all the way down when you press PLAY or turn the wheel, D-REC shows AUDIO MUTED. The wheel always turns, even with nothing recorded, with its clicks and a soft whir. PLAY on an empty deck says NOTHING RECORDED. Every button now sinks a little when you press it. On the dark colorways, popups sit on a raised surface with softer lines, and the background texture fades while a popup is open. Small print in Settings is larger, and the delete button is easier to tap.
