OpenTeleprompter v3.0 — Dynamic Island Redesign
This is a complete UI overhaul. Everything you loved about v2 is still here — same voice-scroll core, same tiny binary — but the entire interface has been rebuilt from the ground up.
✦ What's new in v3
Dynamic Island — properly done
The notch overlay now has real concave corners that bite into the menubar bezel exactly like Apple's Dynamic Island. Apple spring physics (cubic-bezier(0.32, 0.72, 0, 1)) for all expand/collapse animations. It looks like part of the OS.
React frontend
The entire UI is now built in React + Vite with a proper Zustand store. This unlocks fast iteration, clean state management, and a foundation for every feature we want to add next.
Rich text editor (Tiptap)
Bold, italic, color highlights, and smart cue markers: [PAUSE], [SLOW], [BREATHE]. Format your script exactly how you want to deliver it.
Script library
Save multiple scripts, switch between them instantly. Auto-saves on start. No cloud, no account, everything stays local.
Light & dark theme
Full theme support with a pastel light mode as default. Toggle from the menubar or settings.
Live controls while reading
Adjust scroll speed and font size on the fly — no need to pause your delivery.
Redesigned settings panel
A clean React settings view with ResizeObserver-driven auto-height. All your preferences in one place, persisted across sessions.
Visual test suite
16 Playwright tests covering 48 state combos (notch/classic × idle/edit/read × dark/light). Confidence in every release.
📦 This release — macOS only
Windows: v3 has not been tested on Windows yet. Windows users should continue using v2.2.1 which is stable. Windows v3 is coming soon.

⚠️ First launch on macOS
macOS will warn the app is "damaged" because it isn't signed with an Apple Developer cert. It's not damaged — just remove the quarantine flag:
xattr -cr /Applications/OpenTeleprompter.appThen double-click normally. You only need to do this once.
