Every change to Aliada Create

This release makes conversations about a track easier to follow. Comments now line up with the music, and share pages tell your listeners who sent the link and how long it lasts. Signing in and staying signed in are safer, and many small problems with layout, playback and accessibility are fixed.

New

• Comments in track order. You can sort comments by where they sit in the track and click a comment’s timecode to jump there. While a track plays, the comment for the part you’re hearing is marked “Playing now”.
• Delete comments. You can delete your own comments and replies, and team owners can remove any comment. A deleted comment also disappears from the activity history.
• Edit and delete your own notes. You no longer need to be a team admin to fix or remove a note you wrote.
• Who shared it, and until when. A share page now shows who shared the track, when they shared it and when the link expires. The expiry date turns red only in the last seven days.
• Finer spans. A span can now start and end on a tenth of a second, and repeat stops exactly at its end.

Improved

• Comment threads. Threads look calmer. Each comment has a one-line header, replies are joined by a connecting line, and a reply box is always ready. On a computer, the actions for a comment sit as icons next to its time. Formatted text reads properly, and the comment box shows clearly when a comment is sending or has failed.
• Previews for listeners. If a track plays only a preview to some listeners, they can see exactly where the preview ends. Skipping ahead stays inside the preview, on the compare page too.
• Waveform. When part of a track is out of view on a narrow screen, a fade and a button show there is more to that side and take you to it.
• Playback when your session expires. The player now pauses and asks you to sign in again. It used to skip through your whole queue.
• Signing in. The check that you’re human now runs out of sight and no longer gets in the way of password managers. If you use two-factor sign-in, you’re now asked for your code after signing in with an emailed code, and in the iPhone app as well.
• Your account stays yours. Changing or resetting your password, or choosing to sign out of all devices, now signs you out everywhere. A new email address only takes effect once you confirm it.
• Privacy. Your email address no longer appears in the addresses of sign-in, sign-up, invitation or help pages. Only the person a team invitation was sent to can accept it, and only a team admin can cancel one that hasn’t been accepted.
• Deleted means gone. A track, project or team you delete stops playing straight away everywhere, including on share links and in playlists.
• Split sheets keep their history. A split keeps the full record of who was on it, even after someone is removed or their account is deleted. The email addresses of removed participants are hidden.
• Uploads and imports. When you upload many versions at once, they start sooner and are processed two at a time. Imports from links run one at a time for each person, so no single account holds everyone else up. If processing fails, you’re told instead of being left waiting.
• Session photos. Generated cover photos use the title you typed, and Regenerate uses your edited description. If a description is turned down, the photo is tried again automatically.
• Getting around. The top navigation bar stays in view as you scroll, and moving between pages animates smoothly.
• Choosing a plan. The plan you pick on the pricing page now carries through sign-up all the way to billing.
• Accessibility. Text, form fields, checkboxes and status labels have stronger contrast, and a focused field shows a single clear outline. When a drawer opens, keyboard focus moves into it and stays there. Tooltips close with Escape and stay open while you hover over them. The phone country picker now works fully from the keyboard. Buttons on playlists, session photos, the sign-up code form and the help panel are larger and easier to tap, and reduced-motion settings are respected.
• Consistency. Times like “5 minutes ago” read the same everywhere, numbers line up in tables, and headings and wording are consistent across the app.
• Sending feedback. The support link on aliada.io now opens the feedback panel straight away.

Fixed

• Live updates once again appear without refreshing the page.
• Drawers, menus, tooltips and panels no longer hide behind the player bar or get cut off near the bottom of the page, and the bottom of a page no longer ends up underneath the player bar.
• New comments no longer show as edited.
• Mentions of people in comments are readable in dark mode.
• On touch screens, tooltips no longer pop open on every tap and stay stuck open.
• Every tap on rewind and fast-forward now counts.
• A track you’ve lost access to in your queue is skipped at once rather than retried.
• A version whose length hasn’t been worked out yet no longer shows a Play button that doesn’t work.
• Uploading a profile or session photo no longer fails now and then.
• New members stay signed in after entering their sign-up code.
• Signing in with an emailed code now takes you back to the page you were trying to reach.
• The iPhone app no longer tells you your session has expired when it hasn’t.
• Opening an expired share link no longer counts as a listen.
• Share pages no longer offer Compare or show an empty space above the title, and the sharing details stay with the title.
• If the billing portal can’t open, you now see a page that lets you try again instead of an error.
• Rows in Recent Playlists on your dashboard now open their playlist.
• The new-playlist form now works on phones.
• The help and news panel keeps its layout while it loads.
• Sessions uploaded by someone whose account was deleted stay available to the rest of their team.

Playlists are out of beta and available on every plan. Your music now keeps playing while you move around Aliada, getting started takes three steps, and uploads fill in a waveform as they go. This release also brings a long list of smaller improvements and fixes.

New

• Playlists for everyone. Build playlists from your own sessions and ones shared with you, and pick which version of each track plays. Recent playlists appear on your dashboard and in search. Free accounts get one playlist; every paid plan gets unlimited playlists.
• Music that keeps playing. Audio no longer stops when you open another page. The player bar stays with you and shows the playlist and cover art for what’s playing.
• A shorter start. New accounts finish setup in three steps and can upload their first session along the way.
• Upload progress you can see. A waveform fills in as your file uploads, and Aliada tells you if an upload is interrupted.
• Photos from any phone or camera. Profile pictures and images now accept the photo formats phones and cameras use, including iPhone photos. If an image can’t be read, Aliada says why. We now handle all size & format conversions so it’s less fussy.
• Complete session exports. An exported session includes everything in it, cover art too, so it works as a full archive.
• Drag to mark a section. Drag across the waveform to mark a section of a track and edit it in place.
• PRO affiliations page. Your PRO affiliations have their own page with a searchable picker.
• Show your password. The sign-up form has a show/hide button in place of the second password box.
• Threaded feedback. Feedback conversations with the Aliada team now read as one thread, and reply emails keep their formatting.

Improved

• Tables remember your view. Sorting, filters and searches stay put when you leave a page and come back.
• Waveforms appear on their own. When a new version finishes processing, its waveform shows up without reloading the page.
• Faster pages. The analytics page shows each chart as soon as its data is ready, and share pages load faster for listeners.
• More dependable cover art. Generated cover images finish reliably, and the create button waits until yours is ready.
• Easier to use with a keyboard or screen reader. Focus outlines are easy to see, playlist buttons are easier to tap, icon buttons are announced properly, and Aliada respects your device’s reduce-motion setting.
• More consistent screens. Forms and tables look and work the same way across Aliada, and contact email addresses are partly hidden in lists.
• Help that follows you. The Help and News panel stays open as you move between pages, and Get Started now opens the Key Concepts guide.
• Clearer sign-in and share pages. If the security check can’t load, Aliada explains why. On share pages, playback waits until the check and any password are done.
• Lock screen and media keys control playback consistently.
• Plan changes. Analytics is included with Pro and above. On the Free plan, paid features show as locked instead of disappearing, and private share links can be set never to expire.

Fixed

• Recent Sessions no longer lists sessions you can’t open.
• Playback no longer starts on a version that is still processing.
• Create forms wait for your profile picture to finish uploading before saving.
• A dropped connection no longer reloads the page.
• The notifications panel stays in place when you open it.

• Link versions get a proper file name.
• Upload fields now show their error messages.
• Comparing versions now tells you when a track can’t play.

• The Team Contacts link is back in the team menu.
• Search no longer shrinks on laptop screens.
• Fixed occasional errors from profile pictures, the help panel, background images and pop-up menus.
• Error pages load even when the rest of Aliada is unavailable.

Studio and Enterprise teams get more control over work before it’s ready to release: Audio Cutoff Protection holds back the end of a session, and Studio Branding puts your logo and URL on the work you share. There are also Aliada apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac, favorites, feedback threads, better sharing, and a player that keeps playing as you move between pages. And “Asset” is now “Session”, the word musicians already use.

New

• Audio Cutoff Protection. On Studio and Enterprise, a team admin can hold back the final 1 to 50% of each version in a session that isn’t paid for or ready for release. The protected end is marked on the waveform and is unavailable to listeners and non-admins. Team admins keep full playback and download access.
• Studio Branding. Studio and Enterprise users can set a studio logo and URL. They appear on shared sessions, your profile and the player, so listeners can see where the work came from.
• Aliada apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Play shared sessions in the new apps, in beta on TestFlight. Want an Android version? Tell us through the Feedback button.
• A player bar that follows you. Audio keeps playing as you move between pages.
• “Session” replaces “Asset” throughout Aliada.
• Library 1.1. See your total storage at a glance, with a breakdown for each team if you work in more than one.
• Favorites. Star a version. Favorites appear in the compare view and version menus, and you can create a share with only the versions you’ve starred.
• Better sharing. Save public shares to “Shared with me”, create links that never expire on paid plans, and open your device’s share menu from the share links table.
• Feedback threads. Send feedback or a bug report to the Aliada team from the toolbar, attach a screenshot, and keep the conversation going in Aliada.
• Contacts. Archive, restore or delete contacts, filter for deleted ones, and Aliada remembers your page size.
• Analytics breakdowns. Plays broken down by operating system, OS manufacturer, app and app version, with plays from the Aliada app identified correctly.

Improved

• Sharing and search. Share pages have smoother transitions, clearer actions and better loading states. Playlist and shared-session searches include sessions from active shares, showing only the versions each share allows.
• Privacy and permissions. Only the team owner sees team members’ email addresses, an invitation can be accepted only by the address it was sent to, and permission checks are tighter across contacts, submission boxes and more.
• Login. Login buttons stay disabled until the security check finishes, which keeps out automated abuse without duplicate submissions.
• Phones and tablets. Tables become readable cards on small screens, empty table cells show a dash, player and compare headers handle long titles, and pages no longer bounce past their edges.
• Uploads and versions. Upload limits are stated before you choose a file, and changing a version’s normalization has a clearer flow with better feedback.
• Accessibility. Emoji reactions work fully from the keyboard, player shortcuts are more consistent, and tooltips behave better with mouse and touch.

Fixed

• Password-protected shares unlock reliably and keep access while audio loads.
• Team invitation links open correctly, and pending invitation dialogs display as expected.
• You no longer get notifications for your own comments.
• “Shared with me” and recent-session cards refresh after sharing activity.
• Analytics charts stay stable when filters change.
• Fixed crashes involving missing versions, profile normalization settings and invalid time zones.
