Changelog
What's new in PasteNotch. The Mac app updates itself; the iPhone app is in TestFlight testing.
Safer sign-in
- Google sign-in is now tied to the app that started it, so a sign-in link someone else sends you can't switch your app to their account.
- If you bought Cloud with a license key before accounts existed, signing in now brings that Cloud library into your account automatically, using the key already on this device.
Pixelate that matches what it hides
- Pixelated areas in Screenshot Studio now use the colors of the screenshot underneath. A hidden email on a dark app stays dark, and one on a white page stays light, instead of a grey pattern that looked pasted on.
- The blocks are blended with their neighbors, so the hidden text still can't be read or reconstructed.

A redesigned Screenshot Studio
- A new layout: your screenshot sits on a dark stage, tools live in one floating bar above it, and canvas settings moved to a panel on the right.
- Background swatches show the real gradients, canvas sizes have shape previews, and Padding, Corners and Shadow are sliders you drag across (arrow keys work too).
- The bottom bar shows keyboard hints for the current tool, the final image size and Drag out.

Smoother everywhere
- Opening the notch, switching tabs, searching and clicking cards no longer stutter or blink.
- Gentle new motion: the panel blooms out of the notch, the tab pill glides, and cards settle into place. Reduce Motion is respected.
Settings in the Dock
- PasteNotch shows a Dock icon while Settings is open, so you can switch back to it like any other window.
A new Library
- The iPhone Library and Cloud Library were rebuilt with clearer cards, filter pills, and grid or list views, in light and dark.
Better secret detection
- API keys and tokens written as KEY=value or inside JSON are now recognized as sensitive and kept off PasteNotch Cloud.
Mark up screenshots
- Screenshot Studio gained arrows, boxes, highlights, text notes, numbered steps and pixelate, with eight colors, select and resize, and full undo.
- Hide private info (⇧⌘R) finds emails, phone numbers, IP addresses, card numbers, IBANs and API keys on the image and pixelates them, all on your device.
Sign in with Google
- Sign in with Google or an email code on Mac, and with Apple, Google or email on iPhone.
Screen recording, rebuilt
- Pause and resume without gaps, restart the same area, or discard a take from a control bar you can drag anywhere.
- Pick a window with one click, press Space for the whole display, add a countdown, choose 30 or 60 fps, and show the cursor and clicks.
- Trim recordings and export them as GIFs right after you stop.
