Privacy Settings: Network requests often contain elements like POST request form data, request headers and query parameters along with other details of the request. While these elements help users closely monitor and debug the requests, they sometimes may lead to exposing sensitive user data like passwords, phone numbers, payment information and other personally identifiable information. You can now configure a list of sensitive keywords that you expect to appear in the network requests of apps/ sites you debug.

Web app
For teams, we made it easier to see which team member created the report. The "created by" field is now viewable right on the dashboard in addition to the report information tab.
You can now search & filter by tags in addition to statuses.
We made it easier to take bulk action with multiple reports at a time. You can select all the reports in your project, not just the 10 reports that show up on the first page of the dashboard. Bulk actions now include the ability to share multiple reports at a time, as well as archive, assign, add statuses and tags, and move them to other projects.
Automated Testing
Our WebdriverIO integration is now available on Edge.

Handle large network traffic logs. This version allows you to record videos with larger network traffic logs and review the logs in the playback video.
Remember email/password. This version introduces the option of remembering your email/password at login for quicker access to your dashboard.
Hide JS Logs for Firefox recordings. Due to differences in capabilities between Chrome and Firefox, we are unable to capture and display JS logs on Firefox recordings, so we hid that tab from the playback video.
Extend Video Player timeout. This version extends the video player timeout; playback videos and associated data are now accessible for 2 hours (after which time a page refresh is required).
Required fields. When creating a report, we identified which fields are required.
Change Password emails. You'll now receive an email in all cases when you change your password.
Error logging. We also enhanced our logging of errors so we can respond more efficiently to any bugs/issues.

Capture URL. This version captures the URL during the recording; the URL is now displayed in the playback video.
Firefox Extension
Capture URL. This version captures the URL during the recording; the URL is now displayed in the playback video.
Fixes. Given limitations with Firefox, we are currently unable to display the JavaScript logs on playback videos, resulting in a greyed out tab that may have given the appearance that the site was broken. We therefore removed the JS Logs tab on the video player.
January 2, 2020
We have big plans for 2020, and one of our goals is to keep all our customers up-to-date on what we're releasing and when. Since we completed a major overhaul of our site last year, there are lots of updates. Here are some of the highlights:
We completed an overhaul of the entire site, and updated the designs and the user interface in the process. We also released brand new versions of the Chrome and Firefox extensions.
We implemented lots of user requests, one of which is the ability to play videos at 2x the speed. Keep those requests coming!
The videos now come with information on resource timing, so you can analyze network timing data regarding the loading of a site’s resource(s).
You can now annotate a video with your mic, making it easier to explain what's happening. More methods of annotation are in the works and will be released later this year.
We added some third-party integrations. We now integrate with: Jira, Github, Gitlab, Slack, Trello, Asana, Basecamp, and Zapier. More on the way!
We updated the registration and login flows, including the Sign Up with Google feature, so it’s now even quicker to get started.
There's now a Notifications bell on the dashboard, making it easy to see updates on the bugs that are important to you.
We’ve added a tool we call “Feedback by BugReplay”- it allows your own customers and other people outside your team to submit video bug reports without the need to join your team or even create an account!
Add attachments to a bug report, such as screenshots and other files, after a report is created.
It's now easier to manage all your bugs: there are now a lot more project management tools, from message boards for each report, to the ability to create projects, assign tasks, add statuses and tags, and more.
To all our partners and customers, thanks for your support, and stay tuned for more announcements to come!
