Release notes

Save your search results, not just your query

You can now save a set of search results directly as a collection, without leaving the results view. A new button appears beside your results count; click it, and a "Create Collection from Search Results" modal lets you name the collection and save it on the spot. Turning a large result set into a collection previously meant selecting assets manually; now it's one click from the results page itself. Collections created this way are capped at 50,000 assets.

Your place in the collection tree now stays put

Previously, browsing into a collection from the Search page, or opening one from a share via "Open in Iconik", didn't keep it highlighted in the collection tree, so you might lose your bearings the moment you looked over at the tree panel. Now the tree stays in sync with wherever you are, no matter how you got there, so you always know where you are relative to the rest of your collections.

Call out what's wrong with a new Cross tool

The same annotaiton tool added to Iconik Web and iOS is now available in the Player. Alongside the existing rectangle, ellipse, arrow, line, and pencil tools, review annotations now include a cross. A rectangle says "look here"; a cross says "this is wrong" — a distinction that matters in fast-moving review.

‍

Keep listening when you switch apps

Audio and video now keep playing in the background when you leave the app or lock your phone. Review a long interview or voiceover pass without needing to keep Iconik open in front of you the whole time.

Stream reviews to a bigger screen or speaker

Cast audio and video playback to a TV or speaker over AirPlay — pull footage up on a bigger screen for a group review, or listen on speakers better than your phone's.

Upload Live Photos directly

You can now upload Live Photos straight from your camera roll instead of exporting a copy first. Iconik saves the still image from the Live Photo. Full support for the motion and audio isn't available yet, but it's on our radar.

Mark up frames with a new Cross tool

Alongside the existing annotation tools, you can now drop a cross directly on a frame during review. It's built for the moments a circle can't cover — a circle says "look here," a cross says "this is wrong." That distinction matters most in fast-moving review sessions, like live sports markup, where you need reviewers to say more with one mark.

Keep feedback internal, right from your phone

You can now mark a comment as internal-only while reviewing on iOS, so it's visible to your team but never to anyone you've shared the asset with outside your organization. It's a way to work through notes candidly before you're ready to share feedback with a client.

View Link Assets on the go

Link Assets (e.g. Google Docs, Figma files, Celtx scripts, and YouTube videos connected to Iconik without uploading a file) now show up in search and asset views on iOS. Wherever you're working, you get the full picture of a project's assets, not just the uploaded media.
