What's New in Sealed Move
1.2
August 26, 2026
Your best games deserve an audience. Export any game as a video. Open the game review, tap the film button, and pick the stretch that matters on the timeline: the whole game, or just the five moves where it turned. Choose the coach's red annotation arrows or classic square highlights, and decide whether the coach's notes ride along. Moments with a note hold on screen at reading pace, the same rhythm as the review walkthrough, and the clip ends on the game's report card. The result is a standard vertical video in the share sheet. Send it to a friend, post it, or save it to your photo library. Also in this release: replay boards across the app (game history, reviews, the Lexicon) now draw pieces with the same high-contrast outlines as the live board, so positions stay readable on every square, in videos included.
