Changelog

Every release, latest first. Curated from the desktop app’s CHANGELOG.md. Plain language, no commit hashes.

2.0.4

latestJuly 1, 2026

Highlights

Cloud dictation starts faster — the first request skips the connection handshake
Back-to-back recordings reuse a single connection instead of rebuilding it each time

Features

Cloud STT: warms the active cloud speech-to-text connection at recording start so the first transcription skips the DNS, TCP, and TLS handshake
AI formatting: pre-warms the active AI-polish connection whenever formatting is enabled with a configured provider
Performance: reuses one pooled HTTP client across requests instead of rebuilding it per call, speeding up back-to-back dictations

2.0.3

June 30, 2026

Highlights

Deepgram keys now validate correctly and report the real problem
Each cloud provider card shows which model it's using

Fixes

Cloud STT: validates the Deepgram API key against its documented token endpoint and surfaces a precise "model unavailable — check the key's scopes and your plan" message instead of a misleading "invalid key"
Cloud STT: updates Soniox to its current async transcription model
Cloud STT: shows the underlying transcription model on each cloud provider card

2.0.2

June 30, 2026

Highlights

Hotkey engine rebuilt on one native trigger system for combos, holds, and taps
Windows tray no longer crashes on startup and adapts its icon to light or dark

Features

Hotkeys: unifies key combos, bare-modifier holds, and isolated taps onto one native trigger engine, retiring the old global-shortcut plugin
Hotkeys: lone-modifier recording hotkeys now fire even while a Voicetypr text field is focused, via an in-app fallback
Tray: theme-adaptive tray icon that matches the Windows light or dark taskbar

Fixes

Tray: never crashes on startup when the system tray fails to initialize on Windows
Windows: ships debug symbols (.pdb) so crash reports symbolicate to real frames
Hotkeys: arms an upgraded combo at startup and no longer swallows bare modifiers on Windows
Hotkeys: clears the old combo hotkey before saving a bare-modifier primary so recording can't double-fire
Windows: guards monitor queries against a stale-handle crash when the display configuration changes

2.0.1

June 25, 2026

Highlights

Crash and reliability hardening across Windows recording, the keyboard hook, and local Whisper
Diagnostics reporting now defaults to opt-out with clearer consent wording

Features

Diagnostics: crash and error reporting defaults to opt-out with clearer consent wording

Fixes

Recording: prevents a Windows crash from an unbounded audio buffer size and isolates device-callback panics so a hiccup can't abort the app
Recording: finalizes recorder teardown on a path independent of device disconnects
Hotkeys: wraps the Windows low-level keyboard hook so a hook failure can't take down input
Transcription: hard-timeouts in-process Whisper decoding to stop indefinite "Transcribing…" hangs, and aborts the watchdog before remapping completed results
Hotkeys: single-tap triggers now work in onboarding, matching the Shortcuts page
Settings: avoids a window-state panic when changing the pill offset
Models: keeps a known model selected on startup, opens native microphone settings, and shows animated progress for Parakeet downloads
Onboarding: exposes the model Repair action for parity with the dashboard
Permissions: routes grant buttons to the native settings panes

2.0.0

June 25, 2026

Highlights

Features

Speech-to-text: adds cloud transcription providers — Soniox, OpenAI, Groq, Deepgram, and Cohere — selectable per recording
AI formatting: rebuilds AI polish natively in Rust for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints, with a searchable model catalog and a deterministic fallback when formatting fails
Transcription: unifies local, cloud, and remote transcription behind one engine, with cancel-anywhere, a decode watchdog, silence handling, and device-disconnect recovery
Upload: adds cloud speaker diarization for file uploads (Deepgram, Soniox), producing speaker-attributed transcripts you can save as .txt or .md
CLI: installs the `voicetypr` command on your PATH so terminals, scripts, and AI agents can drive transcription directly, with consistent --json output
History: stores rich per-entry metadata (source, engine, language, duration, diarized) with source, app, and date filters, plus a Show original / Show formatted toggle
Windows: choose GPU, CPU, or Auto transcription acceleration in Settings and onboarding
Windows: adds a Microsoft Store (MSIX) distribution option, with in-app updates managed by the Store for Store installs
Shortcuts: streamlines the recording shortcut to one flow, with first-class single-key push-to-talk, a bindable Toggle AI formatting key, and lone-modifier hold-to-talk

Fixes

Transcription: shows short, plain messages in the recording overlay instead of long internal error strings, pointing auth and model failures to Settings
AI: validates custom OpenAI-compatible connections the way formatting actually runs, so Test no longer falsely passes on a public models list
