What's new

Speaker identification now finishes with your meeting instead of after it, learns a voice the moment you name it, and works out how many people were on the call by itself. Ask Mr.Speech can rewrite a meeting's summary in the shape you ask for, and installing on Windows no longer stops on an approval box you cannot see.

• NewSpeakers are ready the moment your meeting ends: a quiet background helper does the heavy listening while the call runs, so working out who said what no longer needs a long sweep afterwards. A review card then shows each voice with a few of their own lines, with recognized teammates already named. You can turn the helper off on a slower computer.
• NewName a voice once and your computer remembers it: putting a name on “Speaker 2” also saves that person's voice signature on your device, so they are recognized in your next meetings. What is learned stays on your device and is never shared with your team on its own.
• NewYour voice can be recognized in every language you speak: add a short recording per language, so switching from English to French mid-meeting no longer makes you look like a different person.
• NewThe speaker-count question answers itself when the evidence exists: a meeting linked to a calendar invite sorts out who said what on its own, then shows a short note you can confirm with one tap or correct instantly.
• NewAsk Mr.Speech can rewrite a meeting's summary in the shape you ask for, and can produce a protocol, action items or a follow-up email the same way. Anything it writes can be undone, and material already saved in your note is never replaced without your confirmation.
• FixInstalling Mr.Speech on Windows no longer stops on an approval box you cannot see: the Microsoft component Mr.Speech needs now travels with the app, so there is nothing to download and nothing to approve.
• FixA short interruption no longer cuts your sentence in half: a quick “yeah” dropped into your turn used to split the transcript between both of you. Your sentence now stays whole under your name, and the person who cut in appears as a small “spoke over” note beside it.
• FixTwo people are no longer merged into one speaker when music or a burst of noise shares the call, or when they simply talk over each other. Words at a hand-over also stay with the person who actually said them.
• FixNaming your speakers now reaches the summary you already have: renaming someone updates the summary and action items too, not just the transcript. Mr.Speech also tells you when saved material has fallen behind and points at the button that fixes it.
• ImprovementUpcoming meetings and Plan cards stay readable beside Mr. AI: both now fit the space actually left in the workspace instead of measuring against the whole window.

Mr. AI and Google Calendar are now available in production, renamed speakers stay correct when meeting work is updated, and short answers and Plan cards use the right amount of screen space.

• NewMr. AI is available throughout the production app: open it from the global launcher or use its contextual help in Notes and Meetings.
• NewGoogle Calendar is permanently available in production builds, with the same approved read-only connection. Microsoft Calendar remains deferred.
• FixRenamed meeting speakers stay renamed when you update a summary, action-item Plan, protocol, follow-up, or Mr. AI meeting proposal. Generic labels such as “Speaker 1” no longer return after you have assigned the real names.
• ImprovementShort Ask Mr.Speech answers open in a compact card that follows their content, while longer answers still grow to a comfortable limit and scroll on small screens.
• FixOpening a Plan card now uses the full app window even when its board has only a few cards. Short details stay compact, and longer cards scroll within the available screen.

Settings asks far less of you, Ask Mr.Speech works beside your page instead of covering it, your past meetings can come with you from one more app, and Google Calendar is open to everyone.

• NewGoogle Calendar is open to everyone: connecting a calendar used to be limited to a small group of testers while Google reviewed our read-only access. Anyone can now connect from Settings, choose which calendars to use, and see upcoming meetings with their join links. Mr.Speech can read your events but can never create, change or delete them, and personal time blocks stay out of your meeting list.
• ImprovementConnecting a calendar looks like the rest of Mr.Speech and fills in straight away: the browser page now uses the app's own dark theme instead of a plain light page with three separate reassurance boxes, and your meetings appear as soon as the connection finishes instead of waiting for a manual refresh.
• NewBring your meeting history over from Wispr Flow as well as Granola: connect once, and available summaries, notes, transcripts, attendees and folders import into their own project. Importing again never overwrites titles, summaries or filing you edited yourself.
• ImprovementSettings asks you far fewer questions: it went from 73 switches to 45. Smart formatting is a single switch instead of six, meeting audio tuning is handled for you, and cloud sync is one switch that says when it last ran instead of five switches and four separate dates.
• ImprovementAsk Mr.Speech works beside your page instead of covering it: it opens straight into chat, sits next to the current page on wider windows, and takes the full width only on narrow screens. Suggestions now match the page you are on.
• ImprovementGetting started is shorter and teaches the app you actually have: one lesson with three concrete examples you can try, skip, or come back to later.
• FixHolding Ctrl and Windows now records one continuous dictation: Windows could report the key as released while the hold was still being tracked, which broke a single hold into rapid starts and stops.
• FixTurning on microphone cleanup now actually cleans up your microphone: on its own the switch did nothing unless you also found three separate sub-switches underneath it, all of which shipped off.
• FixTouchscreen dragging no longer turns into an accidental click: on Windows touchscreen laptops you can move the recording pill with a finger or pen without starting or stopping a recording.

A faster app on any computer, live meetings that tell you where you stand, and clearer answers in your projects.

• NewLive meetings now tell you how much time you have left, and stop on their own when it runs out. Nothing is lost.
• ImprovementBetter answers in your meeting projects, with sources you can click.
• ImprovementFaster and lighter, especially on older computers.
• ImprovementA better scratchpad and a smoother interface.
• FixMore reliable updates on Windows.

Import your past meetings from another meeting app with a single browser sign-in. Plus a microphone that stays selected when you move it to another port, stronger protection against a finished transcript being emptied, and note-writing AI that applies what you asked for directly.

• NewImport your meeting history from another app: sign in once in your browser, approve access, and Mr.Speech brings over transcripts, summaries, attendees and folder structure automatically. Granola is the supported source today.
• FixA finished meeting transcript can never be silently emptied: a transcript that had been fully written could be replaced with nothing, leaving a meeting that looked processed but held no words. Both the app and the server now refuse to overwrite real content with an empty transcript.
• FixYour saved microphone stays selected when you move it to another port: Windows renames a microphone when it changes USB port, and that used to silently break your choice. If your microphone genuinely is not connected, a message now names what is being recorded instead, where before it fell back with nothing shown at all.
• FixNote-writing AI keeps your attachments and edits the right note: images and files could be dropped when a note was rewritten or moved, resized images lost their size, and an edit meant for one note could land in another. It also applies a requested diagram, table or checklist directly instead of handing back source and an extra step.
• ImprovementMeetings stay in sync while asking far less of the server: the background check that watches your other devices now proves who you are once an hour instead of on every check, with the same freshness and the same sign-out behaviour.

The projects you file meetings into now sync across your devices, a project's rolling plan says which project it belongs to and each card opens the meeting it came from, and the meeting assistant can close and comment on cards instead of only adding more. Plus meeting notes written in the meeting's own language, and fixes to long meetings, plan date pickers and the notes sidebar.

• NewThe projects you file meetings into now sync across your devices: a project created on one computer, and the meetings filed into it, never reached another. Projects now sync both ways, arriving before the meetings that reference them, and a deleted project stays deleted instead of reappearing.
• NewThe meeting assistant can finish and comment on plan cards, not just add new ones: a task you completed between two meetings used to produce a duplicate card instead of closing the first. It can now mark a card done or comment on it, and only ever touches cards already on the plan.
• ImprovementA project's rolling plan says which project it belongs to: it used to be labelled after whichever meeting created it first. It now reads as the project's plan and opens the project, and each card opens the meeting it actually came from.
• ImprovementMeeting notes are written in the meeting's language: the headings inside a meeting note were always English whatever was spoken. Set the meeting's language and they follow it, so a French meeting gets French headings even when the app is in English.
• FixSpeaker identification and meeting resume work again on long meetings: a check added in the last version compared saved audio against the meeting clock too strictly, so from about the 15 minute mark every live meeting was wrongly told it had no complete audio.
• ImprovementLive meeting transcripts no longer include filler sounds, meeting settings are simpler, and you can rename or delete a meeting straight from the meeting list. Deleting one now asks what to do with the notes and plans it created.
• FixA phantom apology no longer appears from a silent microphone, date pickers close when you click away, a notebook you closed stays closed, and the sync row in the account menu actually syncs.

A meetings and notes reliability release: your own side of a live meeting is never dropped, you can look back at an earlier conversation while a new one is still recording, meetings get a folder-first library with their own AI workspace, and note-writing AI produces properly formatted math, diagrams and layout.

• FixYour own words are never deleted from a live meeting: the safeguard that removes text invented during silence was checking the wrong moment and landing on the pause after you finished speaking. Short replies were the usual casualty. It now allows for that timing drift, and leaves your words alone when there is not enough audio to judge.
• NewA folder-first meeting library and workspace: organize meetings into projects without moving anything in Notes, start a meeting with its project context already attached, and browse every conversation in a spacious view grouped by date, with a persistent Ask AI conversation that cites its sources.
• FixLook back at an earlier meeting while a new one records: opening a past conversation used to hand its screen over to the running recording. It now stays exactly what you opened, with a clear way back to the live one, and starting a second meeting is refused with an explanation instead of silently switching you over.
• FixMeetings survive microphone trouble: a microphone that goes digitally silent is reopened automatically and must deliver real sound before it counts as recovered, switching to a Bluetooth headset mid-meeting keeps everything captured so far, and echo from your speakers no longer swallows quiet speech.
• ImprovementMath and diagrams read like finished notes: formulas can sit naturally inside a sentence, flowcharts open as the rendered visual rather than raw source, and diagrams draw as soon as the note opens.
• ImprovementMr.Speech tells you about new versions while it is running: it used to check once at startup and never again, so an update could sit unnoticed for weeks. It now keeps looking in the background, including in the tray menu, and never interrupts a meeting to install.
• FixRestoring a note or notebook from another device actually brings it back, while deletions stay protected, and automatic correction learning is now review-first, so edits become replacements only when you approve them.

A major release: fully private on-device dictation with live text, dictation that adapts to whatever app you're writing in, a notes editor with nothing to envy Confluence, on-device and in-room meeting transcription, and notebooks inside notebooks, plus faster long dictations and sturdier recordings.

• NewFully private, on-device dictation: a new engine runs entirely on your computer. Nothing is sent anywhere, it works with no internet, and words appear live as you speak. It's the new recommended local engine, with a one-time model download and an on-device badge when it's active.
• NewDictation adapts to the app you're writing in: a mail app gets a properly laid-out email (never a sign-off you didn't say), chat stays casual, and code editors keep technical terms exact, recognized from the app or browser tab, read only on your device.
• NewA notes editor with nothing to envy Confluence: spreadsheet-like tables, a slash quick-insert menu, text colors and highlights, collapsible panels and callouts, real syntax-highlighted code blocks, and resizable images, all preserved in exports.
• NewMeetings on your device and in the room: transcribe meetings with the fast, private engine, pick a room microphone for in-person meetings, and open a high-contrast caption-only display on a second screen.
• NewNotebooks inside notebooks: organize notes as a real tree such as School then Math, create a child notebook where it belongs, and browse full paths across search, graph, and exports.
• NewSpoken lists become lists: say a grocery list of milk, eggs and bread and get a tidy bulleted list, while ordinary amounts stay a normal sentence. Every mode is now easy to find from the floating overlay too.
• ImprovementLong dictations finish as fast as short ones: audio is transcribed in the background as you speak, so a ten-minute dictation still finishes in about two seconds, and hold-to-record now runs up to 15 minutes.
• FixSturdier recordings: meeting audio is continuously saved and recovered after a crash, tables can no longer be lost on reload, and sharing a note or notebook with a person is safer and clearer.

A reliability-and-polish update: the app now starts on a fresh Windows PC with nothing else installed, meetings you've pre-set just process without asking again, plus new hands-free music controls and a clearer path to connect Mr.Speech to your AI assistant.

• FixStarts on a fresh Windows PC: on machines missing the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime, the app could fail to open with an "MSVCP140 missing" error. The installer now sets up that component automatically when it is not already present.
• NewHands-free music and volume: skip to the next or previous track or set your system volume by voice while you record, and on a Mac start playback from your Apple Music library.
• NewChoose how meetings are transcribed on your device, and see how long it will take with an accurate estimate before processing starts.
• ImprovementA clearer way to connect Mr.Speech to your AI assistant: a prominent setup-guide button and a rewritten step-by-step guide for both local and cloud setups.
• ImprovementPlans boards: cleaner, quicker card creation, reusable labels, and reminders at a specific time, not just a date.
• ImprovementMeetings you've pre-set just process: stopping a pre-configured meeting now handles it straight away instead of asking again, plus cleaner summaries and titles.

A reliability update for cloud meetings: long recordings now process all the way through, and any meeting that doesn't finish can be retried with a single tap.

• FixLong meetings transcribe reliably in the cloud: a long recording (up to around three hours) no longer fails partway and loses its transcript, while keeping the same speaker labeling you'd get from a shorter meeting.
• FixReprocess a meeting that didn't finish: if a meeting ever fails to process, it's kept safely and a one-tap Reprocess button lets you try again in the cloud, or on your device when your hardware can handle it. Available in all 10 languages.

A major update centered on a completely rebuilt Notes experience: a clean writing workspace that takes in your existing documents, exports anywhere, and connects to your Plans boards, plus faster meetings and a friendlier first run.

• NewNotes, Rebuilt: A clean, Notion-like writing workspace with a tidy collapsible sidebar, always-editable pages, your open notes as tabs across the top bar, and a polished command palette for searching by text or meaning.
• NewBring Your Documents In: Import a Word document, PDF, or web page and it becomes a fully editable note, so you can start from what you already have.
• NewExport Anywhere: Send any note to PDF, HTML, or Markdown, including self-contained exports that travel with their images and attachments so they open correctly in any browser or editor.
• NewNotes Meet Plans: Link a card to a note and jump between them, see the boards and cards that point back at a note, and links to deleted items are now greyed out instead of leading nowhere.
• NewControl Mr.Speech from Your AI Assistant: Connect Mr.Speech as a tool so AI assistants can read and manage your notes, notebooks, boards, cards, and tasks, all on your machine.
• ImprovementFaster, Clearer Meetings: Speaker labeling is about 2.6x faster, the speaker-count question stays pinned and visible, finished meetings open and pre-load their replay instantly, and AI replies render with proper formatting.
• ImprovementA Friendlier First Run, Native on Mac: Onboarding teaches by doing, with correct Mac keycaps, direct links to each macOS permission pane, and Mac-appropriate shortcut defaults.

Never miss a deadline. Set reminders and lead-time alerts on your tasks and notes, export due dates to your computer's calendar, and enjoy smarter meetings, a friendlier date picker, and even more of the app in your language.

• NewReminders & Deadline Alerts: Add a due date and a separate reminder to any task or note, with lead-time alerts you can set once for everything or override per task. Clickable desktop notifications take you straight to the task.
• NewCalendar Export: Send any due date to your system calendar (a native event on macOS, a standard calendar file on Windows and Linux), then click it to jump back to the exact task or note.
• NewReplay Any Meeting: Finished meetings now have a player that mixes every voice into one recording you can scrub and speed up, with click-to-seek timestamps and a live-highlighted transcript.
• ImprovementYou Decide the Speaker Count: Meeting speaker identification now asks how many people were in the call, so it labels them reliably instead of inventing extra speakers, and stays adjustable anytime at no cloud cost.
• ImprovementFriendlier Date & Time Picker: Choosing a due date or reminder now uses a single, tidy popover with one-tap presets, translated into every supported language.
• ImprovementBroader Native Translations: Many more screens, including Settings, meetings, notifications, and onboarding, are now natively translated across all 10 languages.
• FixWindows Shortcut Reliability: Hold-to-talk shortcuts now fire from any window, take effect immediately after you change them, and recognize fast combo presses.
