Peek in Blackout Mode and Scene Filter
v1.4.2 · April 14, 2026
What's new
Blackout mode now has a reveal button — the eye icon next to any hidden line. Tap it to see the line without exiting the mode. You stay in study context, get the line you need, and keep going.
In the script hub, a new toggle lets you show only the scenes where your character appears. If you're in a large show or covering multiple roles, it's faster to find where you need to be.
Why it matters for your rehearsal
Going blank on one line shouldn't break your flow. Before this update, the only option was to toggle Blackout mode off — which reveals everything — and then turn it back on. That interrupts the drill and makes it easy to accidentally read ahead. The reveal button keeps you in the mode while giving you a way out of the blank without losing context.
The scene filter is most useful in large shows: musicals, ensemble pieces, anything with forty or fifty scenes. Scrolling through every scene to find the three you're in wastes time. With the filter on, the hub shows exactly what you need.
How to use it

Also in this update
