What is built

AreaWhat works

HomeAdmins: production thumbnails, shoots this week, and “Needs you” items with in-place actions. Crew: next call, call times, their productions.
ProductionsList; overview; six-stage pipeline (click to change); a Shoot day button that turns red only in the week of a shoot.

Known gaps

Things the app says or implies that are not there yet, or that work in a narrower way than the copy suggests. These are the facts behind the “not built yet” notes in the articles.

Not built yet

  • Pictures Up Drive, the Mac app. “Render on my Mac” in the viewer only says so.
  • Camera QR scanning in the browser. Shoot day asks for the code to be typed.
  • A service worker, so Shoot day cannot be loaded from scratch without signal.
  • Changing your email address.
  • Managing trusted browsers.
  • A licensed gear catalogue with photos. The name autofill suggests from the studio’s own library.
  • Real integrations. Connecting records the choice only.
  • Saving the storage choice, switching plans, or metering rendering and streaming. Prices are placeholders.

Works, with limits

  • Watermarks are on screen only. Downloads are not marked.
  • Each studio moves to end-to-end encryption at its first sign-in after November 12, 2026. Until then its data is encrypted at rest and opened by the server while in use, and once it moves, links it made before stop opening.
  • Turning profile sharing off stops updates but does not remove what a studio already has.
  • The Studio drive has no starting folders; “Brand assets, templates and music” is a suggestion in the empty state.
  • The trash is emptied one item at a time, by an admin.
  • The keyboard hints U, I and ⇧S in the New menu and Search are shown but not bound. N, ⌘K and ⌘\ work.
  • “Send a new code” on the sign-in page returns to the first step rather than sending another code.
  • The Share links page is reached from the viewer’s Share menu or by its address; there is no sidebar entry.
  • A link’s or a client invite’s email text is fixed; there is no message field.
  • Old .xls quotes cannot be imported; save them as .xlsx or .csv.
