- A brand new interactive onboarding for new users. - Better handling of scripts with heavy watermarks. - If a script genuinely can't be read, Subtext now says so plainly and tells you how to get it sorted instead of handing you an empty cast list with nothing to pick. - If you invited people before you subscribed, every month you earned is now added when you join, not just the most recent one. Invites from friends who subscribe on the web count too. - The script screen sizes itself to your phone. On Plus and Pro Max models the buttons, icons, and labels are noticeably larger, filling space that used to sit empty.
