It will of course also continue running on macOS Catalina (10.15) and most older versions of macOS going back to 10.8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the 2.5 beta runs on Catalina and Big Sur, our current official release, version 2.2, will not. In other words, <strong>you will need to use the 2.5 beta if you want to run InqScribe on macOS Catalina or Big Sur<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For anyone new to the beta, version 2.5 is free to download and works with your existing&nbsp;InqScribe license. In addition to being compatible with Catalina and Big Sur, it brings a number of new features and improvements, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Native spell check<\/li><li>Sleek new design, in Retina-compatible high definition<\/li><li>New, more versatile media engine<\/li><li>More responsive, fully native text field<\/li><li>Emojis<\/li><li>Improved USB device management<\/li><li>Option to restore a previous session\u2019s document windows<\/li><li>New \u201cMute\u201d and \u201cSkip Forward\u201d shortcut commands<\/li><li>Various bug fixes<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s not included in this beta:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Windows support. Currently, the 2.5 beta is limited to macOS, but we are working on a Windows version.<\/li><li>The &#8220;Save Subtitled QuickTime Movie&#8221; feature. InqScribe 2.5 moves away from QuickTime as its media player in favor of a more modern counterpart. While this change brings a host of performance benefits,&nbsp;it means that saving custom subtitled QuickTime movies is no longer an option. Instead, you can use a variety of alternative methods to create subtitled movies, explained in further detail <a href=\"http:\/\/support.inqscribe.com\/knowledgebase\/articles\/426908-what-are-the-different-ways-to-create-a-subtitled\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/support.inqscribe.com\/knowledgebase\/articles\/426908-what-are-the-different-ways-to-create-a-subtitled\">here<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Download the InqScribe 2.5 beta from our website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inqscribe.com\/download.html#versions\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.inqscribe.com\/download.html#versions\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2022 Update<\/strong>: Since releasing our initial 2.5 Beta, we&#8217;ve added more improvements.
