Binot v1.0.0
Binot v1.0.0 - Initial Release
This is the first stable release of Binot. Binot is a native Android application designed to accurately transcribe spoken audio and intelligently process it into structured, readable markdown notes using the Google Gemini API.
Built with a local-first philosophy, this application requires users to provide their own Gemini API key, ensuring absolute data privacy and personal autonomy over AI usage limits.
Features Included in This Release:
- Live Audio Transcription: Real-time voice dictation featuring an automated hardware-volume override to prevent notification sounds from interrupting the recording.
- AI Text Processing: Capabilities to tidy up syntax, summarize lengthy dictations, and translate transcripts across multiple languages using the Gemini 2.5 Flash model.
- Math Context Normalization: Automatically detects spoken mathematical concepts and forcefully converts them into precise Unicode symbols.
- Local Data Management: An offline-first database offering custom labeling, multi-selection, pinning, duplication, and a secure trash recovery system.
- Custom Markdown Rendering: Built-in viewport capable of rendering headers, lists, typographical styles, and contextual text-string highlighting.
- Media Support: Functionality to import existing MP3/audio files for AI transcription, or export locally recorded sessions.
- Backup & Restore: Secure local database management via complete manual JSON export and restoration.
