Security, performance, and growth toolkit for WordPress sites

After 13 months of silence, Jetpack's feed returns with a rebuilt VideoPress player.

◆Current state
Jetpack is a multi-module WordPress suite spanning security, forms, stats, social and AI. The feed's first entry in 13 months is a rebuilt VideoPress player, which moves the seek bar above the controls so it stops interfering with settings on mobile. The post frames it as the most visible result of a wider VideoPress modernization. The monthly What's New roundups that carried the feed through August 2025 have not returned here.
◆Where it's heading
Through 2025 the visible arc was consolidation into My Jetpack and steady growth of Forms. One VideoPress post adds a different module to that picture and says little about the rest of the suite. The gap is better read as a gap in this feed than as proof that nothing shipped.
◆Prediction
More VideoPress work is the only call the entries support, since the post describes an ongoing effort. One entry after a 13-month gap is not enough to say the roundups will resume.

    What’s new in Jetpack: July 2025 Update

    Forms gains file uploads and a central integrations dashboard (Salesforce, MailPoet), while Boost adds LCP image optimization and My Jetpack unifies products. The Forms module is clearly the most active surface.

    What’s new in Jetpack: June 2025 Update

    A My Jetpack redesign with clearer tabs, easier cross-device setup, streamlined navigation, and Forms upgrades. UX consolidation work rather than new capability.

    Jetpack 13.9.1 ships a critical security fix

    A critical security release users were urged to install immediately. No new capability, but a non-trivial fix that fits Jetpack's ongoing security-hardening thread.
