What's New in Piston

9.99

September 14, 2026

Version 9.9 -- Customisable tap controls -- - The on-video tap grid is now fully configurable in Settings → Tap Controls. - Choose the grid shape — from a single full-screen cell up to 3 × 3 — and assign an action to each cell. - Separate layouts for live sessions and for clip playback. - Actions include play/pause, jump to live, slow motion, forward/backward stepping, cut mode, loop, show/hide controls, markup list, and custom markers. - Cells can carry a separate press-and-hold action, and scrub actions can be pointed at either the cut in or cut out point. - One-tap presets: Default, Lightweight Markup, and Minimal, plus Reset Defaults. - Live preview in settings uses the real overlay, so what you configure is exactly what you get. - Custom marker cells create a marker directly — name, colour, note prompt, time offset and auto-cut — without opening the markup list. -- Trim your cuts -- - New trim editor for any cut: drag in/out handles on a filmstrip of the whole clip, set points from the playhead, or nudge frame by frame. - Trimming is non-destructive — nothing is thrown away, and resetting the handles brings the whole clip back. - Quick trims straight from the player: "Trim to here" for the start or end without opening the editor (scissors button on iPad/Mac, portrait menu on iPhone). - A trim applies to every angle of a cut at once, so multi-camera angles stay in sync. - Trims are respected everywhere the clip is used — playback, merging, composer clips, exports and Amplify uploads all honour them. - "Apply Permanently" writes the trimmed range out as a new clip in the archive, leaving the original footage untouched. - Trimmed clips are marked with a scissors badge in the archive and show their real start/end times; the playback scrubber hatches out the trimmed head and tail and shows the trimmed length. - Trim available from the archive via long-press or the action sheet.
