Voica v0.6.0 — the dictation bar, safer starts, batch cleanup in History.

What's new

  • A dictation bar at the bottom of the screen. A floating capsule shows a live level wave
    while you speak, with × to cancel (the recording is thrown away — nothing is sent or
    transcribed) and ✓ to stop and transcribe. While the text is being recognized the wave gives
    way to a spinner and "Transcribing…". It floats above other windows and never takes focus, so
    your text still lands in the field you were typing in. With several monitors it shows up on the
    one you're typing on, not always the main one. On by default —
    Settings → Dictation → Show the recording bar at the bottom of the screen.
  • Cancelling a dictation is new. Until now, once a recording started the only way out was to
    send it.
  • Exactly one indicator. With the bar on, the tray icon stays neutral in every state. Turn the
    bar off and the icon takes over again (pulsing while recording, a static accent while
    transcribing).
  • Double tap to start (Toggle mode, on by default): recording begins only on two quick presses
    within 0.35 s, so a stray Right Alt no longer starts a dictation. Stopping is still a single
    press; push-to-talk and the tray's "Dictate" item are unaffected, and it can be turned off.
  • Multi-select and batch delete in History — Ctrl/Shift/Ctrl+A, the Delete key, or the context
    menu; the selection and its audio go in one transaction.
  • "Support the project" link in Settings → About, and a Russian guide to the vocabulary and AI
    term correction.

Also: Settings → Dictation is tidier — the long explanations now live in ⓘ tooltips — and in
History the Play button becomes Stop while audio is playing.
