What's New in GhostLab
1.0.10
October 24, 2026
Recordings keep going. Some phones stopped a recording right after Record was tapped with a message about the phone turning, even when it had not moved. That no longer happens. Every screen now fits with Display Zoom and the largest text sizes. On zoomed-in iPhones the scan screen's buttons no longer run off the edges. Making a clip from a recording plays one sound again. The recording kept playing under the clip editor and the sound doubled up like an echo.
