JVoice 0.2.0

First public release of JVoice: hold a shortcut, speak, and your words are typed into whatever app you are using.

New

• Hold Ctrl + Win anywhere, talk, and let go. The text is pasted where your cursor is. You can pick another shortcut, or switch to press once to start and again to stop, in Settings > Shortcut.
• Speech to text uses ElevenLabs Scribe through your own OpenRouter key. The key is stored encrypted on your computer.
• AI cleanup has two styles. Light cleanup keeps your words and removes um and uh, fixes punctuation, and applies "no wait" corrections. Rewrite turns what you said into clear text.
• DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is the default cleanup model. Settings > AI cleanup > Model also lists DeepSeek V4 Flash, DeepSeek V4 Pro, Claude Haiku 5.5, Gemini 3.8 Flash, Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite, GPT-5.4 Mini, GPT-5.4 Nano, Qwen3.8 Flash, Mistral Small 4 and Kimi K2.6. "Other model" lets you search every OpenRouter model.
• Extra instructions let you add your own rules for the AI, such as British spelling. They save as you type and apply to your next dictation.
• Settings > Output > Length limit caps the text at 128, 280, 500 or 1024 characters, or leaves it unlimited.
• History keeps your dictations on this computer. "Show changes" marks what the AI added and removed. Recordings that failed to send can be retried.
• Dictionary fixes names and words the speech engine gets wrong.
• JVoice updates itself from GitHub. It checks every hour and when your PC wakes up. New versions download in the background and install when you are not dictating, then JVoice restarts on its own. You can also check by hand in Settings > Updates.
• After an update, a notification says what changed, and Settings > Updates lists the changes.
• Your clipboard is put back after each paste, and the dictated text stays out of Windows clipboard history.
• Text pasted into a terminal goes in as one line, so a new line never runs a command.
• If you switch windows before the text is ready, it is copied instead of pasted into the wrong app.
• Updates install only if they carry a valid JVoice signature.
