What’s new

Release notes for microVoice. Updates install automatically — this page tracks what changed in each version.

0.4.2

August 6, 2026

Push-to-talk, and vocabulary you only register once.

  • NewRecording is now push-to-talk: hold the key to record, release to transcribe.
  • NewYour vocabulary and replacement rules sync with your microai.jp account and are shared with the other microai apps that use them — register a name once, not twice.
  • ImprovedCanceling a recording is more reliable: esc works while you hold the right ⌘, pressing it twice stops processing, and the cloud request is aborted as well.

0.4.1

July 30, 2026

Safety net for accidental recordings, plus insertion diagnostics.

  • NewAuto-stop on silence — if nothing is heard for 30 seconds, recording ends by itself. An accidental hotkey tap no longer records until the 9-minute cap; if nothing was recognized, nothing is inserted.
  • ImprovedSmarter homophone correction: the cleanup AI now resolves ambiguous words from the sentence itself (server-side, all versions benefit).
  • ImprovedInsertion diagnostics — paste failures now log their reason (permissions, secure input) for faster support.
  • ImprovedNew macOS 26 (Tahoe) app icon format.

0.4.0

July 28, 2026

High-accuracy recognition, refinement controls and brand polish.

  • NewHigh-accuracy mode — cloud recognition runs alongside on-device recognition and swaps in the more accurate final text.
  • NewRefinement strength slider (Settings → Formatting, shown when refinement is on).
  • ImprovedContext-aware refinement — the active window title and your recent dictations on the same screen inform the cleanup.
  • NewmicroAI Bundle license keys are now accepted.
  • ImprovedAccent color unified on the brand blue across the app, onboarding included.
  • FixedSettings and onboarding windows could hide behind the frontmost app.

0.3.0

July 25, 2026

14 languages, smarter learning and UI polish.

  • NewNow available in 14 languages.
  • NewLearns from your edits — fix the inserted text and microVoice remembers the correction.
  • NewStarts at login (on by default, toggle in Settings → General).
  • ImprovedLive waveform, usage card, inline dictionary editing and more hotkeys.
  • ImprovedUnit words can be symbolized in any language (e.g. “one gigabyte” → 1GB).
  • FixedSilence-only sessions no longer get stuck on “Processing…”.
  • NewTester mode — click the app icon in Settings 8 times to share diagnostics with us during beta testing.

0.2.0

July 22, 2026

Ask & Translate, accounts and licensing.

  • NewAsk anything by voice (right ⌥ by default) — speak a request and the answer is typed for you.
  • NewTranslate as you dictate — assign a hotkey and choose the target language in Settings.
  • Newmicroai.jp account sign-in, settings sync, and license activation.
  • ImprovedNew Permissions and About tabs in Settings, and a refreshed app icon.
  • FixedSubscription licenses were displayed as one-time purchases.
