What's New
Release history for CamTuner.
v3.2.0 — Per-Site Settings & Outlook Fix
Latest
- Settings are now saved per website — the popup scopes itself to the site you're on, falling back to your global defaults
- New "Preview this site" button in the popup opens the live preview editor preconfigured for the current site
- Fixed CamTuner breaking Outlook on the web — Trusted Types shims now load only when needed (also preps Firefox 148+)
- Tabs being actively tuned now show a live badge, and the popup gained troubleshooting guides like how to change your camera
v3.1.2 — Maintenance Release
- Version and dependency housekeeping — no user-facing changes in this release
v3.1.1 — Firefox Popup Crash Fix
- Fixed a Firefox-only crash where the popup failed to render with an 'Invalid hook call' error, caused by duplicate React and @base-ui/react copies being bundled
