New
- A new option in the configuration allows for auto-start recording by default when switching modes from the modes menu.
Note on the KM Macros
Superwhisper's version 1.44.0 is currently the last update where the Keyboard Maestro macros function as they were supposed to. I'm talking specifically about the action modes for pasting the user's prompt along with the result, and web searches. This is due to a change in the app that has stopped this setup from working as it is. The developer has mentioned a solution that will be officially supported, making it more reliable than before. If you rely on these features, you may want to wait before updating past version 1.44.0. Everything else should continue to function normally. Will update the macros as soon as the alternative is officially out.
Previous Updates
(v1.1.6)
Bug Fixes
- The hotkeys for switching modes and toggle a recording used to only work for starting the recording. There was a bug that prevented the same keyboard shortcut from being able to stop the recording. This issue has now been fixed.
- When reprocessing a previous dictation, whether from the history filter or the main menu (with CMD + Shift) Superwhisper would steal the focus. Focus is now automatically restored to the previously active app.
(v1.1.5)
- v1.1.4 and the modification of Super Mode introduced a breaking bug that has now been fixed.
(v1.1.4)
Improvements
- The Super mode experimental setting of the workflow has been removed because it has now been officially released in Superwhisper, and it behaves like any other mode.
- After further testing the capturing of clipboard content with Superwhisper and the capturing of selected text, I have decided not to limit the workflow's "Copy Selectd Text" feature as in the previous update. Instead, users can choose whether to use it or or not, everywhere or only in their browser.
(v1.1.3)
Improvements
- Minor improvement on Alfred's Textview. This change allows for a better rendering of Superwhisper's JSON files using Alfred (makes them much easier to read). Previously, single line breaks would not be interpreted correctly.
- New Alfred File Action. You can now select a JSON generated by Superwhisper and run "View Superwhisper Json." Great to diagnose issues or double check settings in the meta.JSON files generated with recordings.
(v1.1.2)
Improvements
- Superwhisper's native feature of grabbing text selection has been greatly improved in latest version, so the workflow's "Copy Selected Text" helper won't be activated in apps other than Arc & Safari
- The helper is still useful for Arc and Safari users due to ongoing accessibility API issues with these two browsers
- Added new voice commands to the Keyboard Maestro macros (see docs for details)
- Additional few minor improvements to the Keyboard Maestro macros group
Notes
- Remember that for the "Copy Selected Text" feature to work in Safari additional setup is necessary, since it uses javascript.
- Users must be aware that Superwhisper now handles both clipboard and selected text separately. This change gives users more flexibility when sending different content to AI
