FluidVoice v1.6.10-beta.7

Changes

• Introducing FluidMeet: record meetings locally with live captions, speaker labels, transcripts, and on-device summaries.
• Introducing Global Search: find history, transcripts, chats, dictionary entries, cleanup styles, and settings across the app.
• Redesigned the app with clearer navigation, improved onboarding, better layouts for smaller windows, and a What’s New popup to discover each update’s highlights.
• Made Custom Dictionary more intuitive, with experimental pronunciation training that learns how you say words—not just text replacements.
• Added Spoken Send: use a configurable spoken phrase to send your completed dictation, with safeguards for terminal apps.
• Added a personalized Dashboard with recent dictations, quick actions, shareable stats, and Fluid Intelligence highlights.
• Customize the recording overlay with new finishes, colors, transparency, edge lighting, and a voice-responsive waveform.
• Refreshed Fluid Intelligence model browsing and provider setup with model discovery, clearer status, and per-model verification.
• Added configurable idle unloading to free memory when Fluid Intelligence is not in use.
• Added Whisper language selection while preserving Automatic detection for existing users.

Fixes

• Improved dictation responsiveness and long Parakeet recordings by reducing repeated processing and unnecessary waits.
• Expanded local transcription API uploads to 500 MB and removed the previous fixed transcription-duration limit.
• Added support for WhatsApp .opus/.oga voice notes and additional audio formats in File Transcription.
• Improved feedback validation and delivery confirmation while preserving drafts when sending fails.
• Kept completed dictation tied to the destination and cleanup choices captured when recording stops, even if you switch apps during processing.
• Improved clipboard restoration and text delivery, with optional failure notices and filename preservation when oversized clipboard data is skipped.
• Improved media pause and resume during dictation. Removed Independent Volume for dictation sounds so cues no longer change the Mac's system volume.
• Preserved the complete raw transcript when a long Fluid-1 request exceeds its supported context.
• Honored Send Custom Prompt Only for dictation-shortcut overrides and kept transcript text separate from cleanup instructions in supported requests.
• Prevented Basic Instant Replacements from influencing similar-sounding words through Custom Words Boosting.
• Improved pronunciation matching for longer recordings, preserved possessive endings, and prevented corrected words from being expanded twice.
• Kept ignored microphones excluded after reconnecting and improved microphone startup and device-change handling.
• Prevented shortcuts from triggering while the Mac is locked and improved mouse-shortcut handling.
• Fixed the hidden Dock icon returning when reopening an already-running app.
• Preserved accepted Edit Mode rewrites when closing the panel and restored the original field before replacing its text.
• Kept search results current after startup and backup restoration, and hid history audio actions when recordings are unavailable.
• Cleared stale fetched-model selections when provider connection details change.
• Improved meeting audio capture, speaker-name consistency, interruption recovery, and coordination between transcription and AI summaries.
• Improved recording-overlay sizing and label fit.
