- Figma plugin beta. Let us know if you want to test: figma@rotato.app
- Useful specifically when your background is transparent, the canvas now has a discrete border around it
- You can now save, load and share a layer explosion
Improvements
- Rotato now resizes the canvas so the entire canvas is always visible. This is similar to how Keynote resizes the curren slide in the editor.
- You can now resize the main app window to a smaller size than before - great for small laptops!
- When you yank artboard levitations all the way down, Rotato now stops with Swiss precision at the point where all the layers line up
- Exploded artboards can now be saved, shared and loaded in .rotato files and templates
Fixes
- Improvements to iPhone recording and mirroring. Some Big Sur users may experience issues, but upgrading to Monterrey has shown to fix this.
- Fixed a bug where Rotato would move the scene when using the arrow keys in the file name box when saving a snapshot for some users
- Fixed a bug where licenses expiring around Dec 14 2021 would not allow use of the 20x faster Styro MR2 Renderer

Fixes and improvements

- New device: Glass phone
- New device: iPhone 13 beta, 2021
- New device: iMac 24, 2021
- Color Bounce is here. When enabled, light bounces from the background color to the reflection on the mockup device to immerse your mockup in the background color, giving it an even more realistic look. You can adjust its intensity.
- Multi-shadows. Some scenes now have more than one shadow. Look for the drop down box below the shadows
- You can now export Web (Lottie) animations with a transparent background.
- You can now enable reflection environment from the Looks sidebar
Improvements
- In the Looks sidebar, items are now grouped by "Device" and "Background"

Quick fix time! This is a follow-up release to Rotato 123.
Some Apple Silicon users may still experience issues with iPhone recording. We are in touch with Apple to resolve this.
Fixes
- Fixed a bug where Rotato would ignore the Adobe XD plugin
- Fixed a bug where the iPhone screen recorder feature would not start recording in some cases
Fixes and improvements
- New scene: iPhone 12
- New scene: iPhone 12 Toss-Up x 4
- New scene: iPad Pro 2021 M1
- New scene: iPad Pro 2021 M1 + Magic Keyboard
- You can now search the scenes in the splash screen
Improvements
- Saved files are now up to 25x smaller. (Not a typo)
- New scenes are downloadable, not taking up space on your harddrive until you need them
- Better clay mode on iPhone 8
- Loading a scene is now twice as fast, and even faster on new scenes
Fixes
- Fixed a bug where Rotato would ignore the "Simple lighting" setting when reopening a saved file
- Fixed a bug where Rotato would sometimes reject to add a a perfectly fine audio file to the timeline
- Fixed a bug where exporting a transparent video with the iPhone 12 would show a small gap from a specific angle
- Fixed a bug where Rotato would show a "Deactivate License" menu item even when there was no active license
Fixes and improvements
Improvements
- New app icons
- New scene: 2 x generic phones, one upside down. Rotate z 180 degrees to show the other design.
Fixes
- Clay mode lighting would be off if you didn't check 'Simple lighting'. So we asked Rotato to just do that for you every time you click the Clay checkbox.
- The adjustable round corners on the Universal device were slightly jaggy when zoomed in, so we straightened things out. Now they are smooth as math.
Fixes and improvements
- You can now select TikTok in the Aspect dropdown in the top right corner of the scene.
- You can now choose a completely custom movie size in the Aspect dropdown in the top right corner of the scene
- You can now drag in an animated GIF of your app design and use it as a video on your mockup
- You can now switch glass reflections on and off
- You can now change the corner radius on the Universal device
- You can now turn simple lighting on and off
Fixes
- Fixed a bug where there was a checkmark next to the menu items "Enter your license" and "Deactivate License". It didn't do anything for anyone, and honestly, no one knows who let it in, so we kicked it out.
- Some aspects would not keep their exact pixel size promise in some cases and when using the new rendering engine. We had a serious conversation with the dropdown, and it agress to give you pixel perfection from now on.
- Some models don't support clay and device color, but Rotao would show the options anyway, confusing all of us. We respectfully asked it to keep those UI settings on the DL
