What changed, when, why.

HD now recovers on its own if your connection briefly drops or your camera stalls mid-session, instead of ending the swap, and you're never charged for the reconnecting gap. Updates show as a subtle progress ring in the corner, plus a round of visual polish.

A quick fix for a couple of issues some people saw after 1.5.3: brief sign-outs, and a momentary HD lock, that recovered on their own, most likely with the Popout or Preview window open.

HD now costs the same as Standard, so your credits last twice as long; your OBS output stays connected when you pause and resume; updates download quietly in the background; and a fresh install starts you on the best engine you can use. Plus a one-click hide-my-camera control on the stage and a cleaner Settings screen.

MorphMe now has an HD swap engine (Lucy 2.5) for sharper swaps, a prompt bar and a background bar for editing your live swap on the fly, and a polish pass across the whole app. The bell now confirms payments, credit changes, and low balances; camera handling is sturdier; and the quality picker names each engine clearly.

The biggest MorphMe update yet: a growing 'More characters' collection to swap into, a privacy default that keeps your real face hidden if a swap ever drops, and a credit meter that only counts once your swapped video is actually on screen. Plus a redesigned character panel with a first-run tour, sharper WebRTC swaps (Lucy 2.5), and a faster, lighter app.

Stay signed in through long swaps and see exactly how your credits are spent. This release fixes the issue that could sign you out in the middle of a swap, and swaps now ride out a brief connection drop instead of sometimes ending with a "rate limited" error. A new Account & usage link opens your account on the web, where you can review every swap session and exactly how your credits were spent, with your running balance. You can also switch swap engines right from the main screen, support pages open reliably instead of a blank browser window, crypto payments are steadier, and the app's security is tighter under the hood.

A polish and reliability release on top of the new engine. The character you had selected is now ready the moment the app opens, so your first swap just works without re-selecting it. A bug that could cut a swap short with a "rate limited" message — even when nothing was wrong on your end — is fixed, so sessions run more steadily. The preview window no longer lags when you maximize it, recording problems now surface clearly instead of failing silently, and error and status messages across the app are shorter and easier to act on. Rounding it out is a pass of interface polish across dialogs, the character library, the warmup screen, and status chrome.

A brand-new real-time engine runs your swaps with noticeably cleaner, sharper output, and it's now the default. You can switch engines anytime in Settings: the alternative engine is faster and smoother on older or lower-end PCs, so pick whichever suits your machine. This release also adds auto-record (recording starts the moment your swap goes live), makes stopping a recording reliable even after a session ends, fixes a crash when opening the camera picker in Settings, and lets saved characters remember the mode you saved them in.

A reliability release focused on one frustrating problem: starting a swap and getting nothing — no video and no explanation. Now when a session can't get going (your network blocked the video, the connection dropped, or it timed out waiting for the first frame) the app tells you exactly what happened and gives you a one-click Try Again instead of silently doing nothing — and no credits are charged when a session fails to produce video. A common cause, a VPN or firewall blocking the video stream, now gets called out by name with a suggestion to turn the VPN off and reconnect.

Same-day hotfix on top of v1.3.6 after a user reported two real problems with the new payment flow. The persistent banner you click into mid-payment now restores the full payment panel (it was opening empty), and you can now cancel a payment in progress and pick a different package or payment method.

A big quality release. The crypto payment flow now actually talks to you when things take longer than a minute — a confirmation email when credits land, a soft reassurance email if a transaction stalls in the network, a persistent banner that stays visible at the top of the app if you close the Buy Credits panel mid-payment, and a 'Recheck status' self-serve button after 5 minutes of waiting. Plus a head-to-toe UI cleanup: Buy Credits got a real visual hierarchy with proper Visa / Mastercard / crypto brand logos at the right size, the Begin Swap button has a premium pulsing active state with a live MM:SS timer inside it, switching prompt modes now always lands you on the correct default, and the icon system was rebuilt from scratch (every icon in the app is now from the same family at the same weight).

Quick bug-fix release. Two things were quietly off — both fixed. Starter characters (Vampire Lord, Anime Hero, Cyberpunk Operator, Old Sage) now work the moment you pick them; a path-format mismatch in the Library selection code meant the bundled starter image wasn't reaching Decart properly, so you'd see a generic error and have to upload your own image to make anything happen. Plus quieter internal error noise — brief network blips no longer light up our alerts as if something serious failed.

MorphMe Live now ships with the safety surfaces a real-time character-swap app needs in 2026: a one-time consent attestation on first reference-image upload, a polished Stream Kit that delivers AI-disclosure language as the default tone of ready-to-paste stream metadata, a structured abuse-reporting flow on morphmelive.com/report, and a standalone Acceptable Use Policy that mirrors Decart's AUP. Built for trust, not for friction — the on-stream output is untouched.

Quick fix for a stale-balance issue caught from support reports: if your laptop went to sleep, your network dropped, or the app sat idle for a long stretch, your in-app credit balance could fall out of date with the server. The old workaround was to sign out and back in — that's gone. The number you see is now always the truth, especially right after topping up.

Cleaner workspace, scene/background prompting, and four built-in starter characters so you can swap into a look instantly without uploading anything. v1.3.2 ships as a same-day hotfix on top of v1.3.1's redesign.

International customers can buy credits again — added a cryptocurrency payment option (USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL) that works worldwide. Paystack (NGN cards) is unchanged for Nigerian customers. If your Lemon Squeezy credits were revoked, you can now repurchase via crypto and the credits will land within minutes of network confirmation.

Following the suspension of our international payment provider (Lemon Squeezy) on May 5, 2026, the Buy Credits screen has been simplified to show only Paystack while we move to a more stable international setup.

Permanent fix for the 'Failed to uninstall old application files' error some users hit when updating to v1.0.8. Closes the race condition that lived inside electron-updater itself.

Targeted fix for OBS browser-source pauses and freezes, plus diagnostic logging so future stream issues are easier to triage.

Four releases over two days hardening auto-update reliability, fixing network resilience, and rolling out international payments.

First post-launch refinement: onboarding flow, help drawer, and settings cleanup.
