Open beta // Release history

What
changed.

The important changes in each public IRLwhatever release, without the nightly noise.

October 9, 2026 // Build 163

0.8.1 Open Beta

Current

Live captions, mic noise removal, a setup guide for new streamers, DJI camera controls with a Wi-Fi Manager, and a long list of camera, PiP, and reconnect fixes.

Streaming & reliability

  • Streaming straight to Twitch or Kick (RTMPS), a stuck reconnect now gives up after 20 seconds and tries again instead of hanging.
  • SRT no longer floods a weak connection with resends, and RTMP camera scenes can drop below 3 Mbps when the connection is bad.
  • Experimental 25, 50, and 60 fps plus forced 50/60 Hz anti-flicker. The app checks the real frame rate and falls back if the camera can't keep up.
  • Stream info moved to the bottom center, with each bonded connection in green, yellow, or red and the frame rate you're really sending.

Cameras, DJI & audio

  • Start and stop each DJI camera from one list. The new Wi-Fi Manager saves your networks, and new cameras join whatever network the phone is on.
  • Add a Phone Camera PiP to a scene and the switch camera button flips it front or back while your DJI or RTMP camera stays main. In RTMP scenes with an RTMP PiP, it swaps them.
  • RTMP scenes stay black until the right camera is ready instead of briefly showing the phone camera, and stuck DJI or RTMP feeds restart themselves.
  • Mic noise removal for wind, traffic, and crowds that works while live. Fixed silent streams on some phones, such as the OnePlus 15.
  • The Osmo Action 5 Pro now works over USB (UVC 1.5), and a USB camera that never starts shows a message instead of a black screen.

Chat, overlays & captions

  • Live captions run on the phone, with optional translation into 59 languages (Android 13+).
  • Color looks: seven built-in LUTs, or load your own .cube file.
  • Quick Chat (read only) or Full Chat. Twitch and Kick subs, raids, bits, Kicks, and rewards show up, with an events and filters page and mod highlights.
  • Browser sources can be set per scene, and adding an overlay is one screen.

Setup & safety

  • A setup guide for new streamers that can scan your relay's QR code, plus import from Moblin, Larix, or IRL Pro.
  • Relay passwords and RTMP keys no longer appear on the share page or in scenes.
  • Settings save automatically, and crashes on Android 9 to 11 are fixed.
August 31, 2026 // Build 143

0.8.0 Open Beta

A major reliability and production update covering bonded streaming, external cameras, scenes, overlays, remote control, and background recovery.

Streaming & reliability

  • Improved SRTLA and RIST bonding, adaptive bitrate, reconnects, live path changes, and cleanup on unstable networks.
  • Hardened RTMP and USB source recovery across disconnects, backgrounding, scene changes, and repeated sessions.
  • Moblink now handles multiple peers more reliably and shows readable satellite names instead of long IDs.

Cameras, DJI & audio

  • Added multi-source PiP scenes, camera-free RTMP/USB scenes, and more reliable rear/selfie camera switching.
  • Improved stabilization, zoom and lens selection, HEVC RTMP ingest, and Bluetooth, DJI, phone, and USB microphone routing.
  • Expanded DJI setup and recovery for Action and Pocket cameras, including real LAN/hotspot address detection and an optional aggressive resolver.

Overlays & controls

  • Added Browser Tabs with up to three interactive sites that can keep alerts and audio running in the background.
  • Chat can be moved, resized, locked, remembered, and displayed with higher-contrast or custom username colors.
  • Added selectable notch-style system stats, minimizable zoom controls, transparent image fixes, and more reliable maps and drawing overlays.

Remote, location & safety

  • Rebuilt browser remote control with phone approval, timed access, stronger reconnects, and safer session cleanup.
  • Reworked location ownership so maps and RTIRL behave better in the background while privacy zones protect shared locations.
  • Added clearer status and error messages, safer settings exports, and broader lifecycle and recovery testing.
