v2.0.5 is one of our most ambitious releases of the year, focused on three big upgrades.

First, a brand-new visual design paired with an upgraded onboarding experience — we've rebuilt the look and feel of Home, the Live 3D screen, the 3D media converter, and the Shift purchase page, and added a new onboarding flow that makes it instantly clear what the 3D media converter and Live 3D screen do.

Second, a major AI performance & quality boost — our Live 3D screen AI model got a meaningful upgrade with smoother frames, lower latency, and noticeably better quality in fullscreen YouTube, Netflix, and games.

Stay tuned on our Discord channel for upcoming updates and feature announcements!

What's New in v2.0.5

✨ Improvements

• Faster, Sharper Live 3D Screen AI: A meaningful upgrade to our Live 3D screen AI model — smoother frames, lower latency, and noticeably better quality in fullscreen YouTube, Netflix, and games.

• More Reliable Owl3D Link: Owl3D Link now surfaces your current network and firewall status with clear hints on what to adjust, and a new in-app Diagnostics dialog helps you fix common connection issues in seconds.

• Better Support When Things Go Wrong: When something does crash, our diagnostics now correctly capture your driver and GPU info — making it much faster for our support team to help you.

🎨 Enhancements

• Refreshed UX & Visual Design: A brand-new look across Home, the Live 3D screen, the 3D media converter, and the Shift purchase page.

• Smoother Onboarding: A new onboarding flow with a quick guided intro helps first-time users understand the two core features — Live 3D screen and 3D media converter — with a "Don't show again" toggle for returning users.

• One-Click System Info: A new in-app System Info page lets you share your OS, app build, GPU, and driver info in a single click — so our team can diagnose and resolve your technical issues much faster.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Live 3D Screen Stability: Fixed multiple cases where the Live 3D screen would crash, show a "white screen" on launch, or fail to start — including issues on virtual display setups (Quest Link, Parsec, Virtual Desktop, etc.) and on laptops with both Intel and NVIDIA GPUs.

• Owl3D Link VR Connection Timeout: Resolved the "Timeout waiting for VR app connection" error that prevented Owl3D Link from connecting to your VR headset.

• 2.0.4 Regressions: Fixed an issue where the wrong GPU was sometimes selected, and a Live 3D screen error that broke event handling.

Looking forward to you enjoying!

Happy Owl3Ding! 🦉
