Let’s go through what we got done in July 2025 in NeetoRecord.

### **New features** ✨

**✅ Upload custom background images [Desktop app]**  
Personalize your recording environment by uploading your own background images right inside the desktop app. Make every recording look unique and tailored to your brand or mood.

**✅ Change mouse click highlight color [Desktop app]**  
Choose your preferred color for mouse click highlights during screen recordings. Great for making clicks stand out and matching your personal or team style.

**✅ Flip/mirror your camera feed [Chrome extension]**  
You can now flip or mirror your camera feed for a more natural, comfortable presentation—especially helpful for presenters who want their camera to match their screen layout.

**✅ Show/hide countdown timer before recording starts [Chrome extension]**  
Want a few seconds to compose yourself before filming? You can now choose to show or hide the countdown timer before a screen recording begins in the Chrome extension.

**✅ Hide the toolbar [Chrome extension]**  
Prefer a clean, distraction-free workspace? You can now hide the recording toolbar in the Chrome extension whenever you want.

**✅ Change camera bubble size and shape [Chrome extension]**  
Easily adjust the size of your camera bubble or switch between shapes—for instance, from a circle to a square—so your webcam overlay suits any style or content.

### **Enhancements** ✨

**✅ Responsive CTA page [Web]**  
The Call-to-Action (CTA) page is now fully responsive, adapting gracefully to any screen size for a consistent experience on desktop, tablet, or mobile.

**✅ Improved form embedding [Web]**  
Embedded forms now expand to use the maximum available space, making them easier to read and fill out, no matter where you place them.

**✅ Preserved video watch state [Web]**  
Your progress in any video is now remembered, even if you move videos between folders or navigate to different pages—so you never lose your place.
