Nearly 1 year of HD-quality videos have been recorded in less than 1 month
SquadCast’s v3 launched in beta at the end of January and has already been very well-utilized by SquadCasters. Last Friday, we officially took the beta tag off of the new version! With the help of thousands of our customers, we were able to add valuable features and fix a lot of issues, listed below. We’re excited for SquadCasters to continue creating and exploring v3’s video and higher quality audio capabilities.
