Take a Look at Vū Studio's June Release

June 30, 2026

The June 2026 release brings a smarter Vū AI assistant, new Sleep, Wake, and Exit Playback scheduling, a redesigned Display Dashboard with drag-and-drop Scene building, and a broad set of improvements and fixes across themes, PPTX rendering, and the Vū Media Server.

Planned maintenance window: Scheduled for the afternoon on release day. There should be no interruption to website availability or your online account.
