Release Notes

New

• Brand refresh — new app icon across Dock, Finder, DMG, About, sidebar, splash, and onboarding.
• Vocabulary editor in Settings — add, edit, and delete word replacements applied to every transcription (whole-word, case-insensitive by default).
• Auto-learn — when you correct exactly one word after auto-paste, a floating prompt offers to save the mapping. Works in Slack, Cursor, VS Code, Discord, and other Electron apps.
• Can’t-find-bubble panic button — new ⌘⌥B hotkey, right-click menu item, and Settings → System button all reset the bubble to center-bottom of the main screen.

Improved

• Splash screen — clearer “Setting up things for you…” with a smooth progress bar (no more stuck 40%).
• Home character + dialog card stay at a stable size across idle / listening / transcribing / done.
• Onboarding cloud engines: API key required before Continue, now verified against the provider with inline error messages.
• Settings Engine + Model Size pickers lock during a model download so you can’t kick off a second switch mid-flight.
• Privacy toggles — Usage analytics and Crash reports in Settings → Privacy now actually gate data flow (opt-in, batched, no text or audio).

Fixed

• About page now shows the real app version from the bundle, not a hardcoded string.
• Onboarding API key field now renders masked dots while typing on the cream background.
• App icon PNGs padded to Apple’s 80% icon grid so Dock/Launchpad size matches native apps.

• Fixed app icon sizing for Dock and Finder.
• Keychain access no longer prompts for password on launch.
• New notification bell showing update details and changelog inline.

Highlights

• New hotkey system with combination-key support (Control+Option, Shift+Fn, etc.).
• Sidebar now collapses and expands — icons-only mode for tight screens.
• Notification bell in the top-right with a red badge when an update is available.
• User profile moved into the sidebar footer (replacing the “Model loaded” status).
• Warm-themed app icon designed to match the in-app UI.
• Titlebar color now matches the sidebar background for a seamless chrome.

Fixed

• History date parsing — transcription history now loads correctly.
• Auth profile — name and email are now extracted from the JWT correctly.

Behind the scenes

• CI pipeline now auto-generates the changelog from commits.
