Arc Flow v0.2.2
⚠️ Mandatory update
This release is required — Arc Flow will show a full-screen prompt and
ask you to install it before you can keep dictating. This update includes
reliability fixes that affect everyone, so we're rolling it out as
mandatory rather than optional.
What's New
Release notes, right in the app — the update icon and the mandatory
update screen now show a real "what's new" for every release, before you
install it.
Feedback, bug reports, and feature requests — Help now has real forms
for Send Feedback, Report a Bug, and Suggest a Feature (no more only-email).
Settings → Privacy can also list your saved local crash reports and let you
send one yourself — nothing is ever sent automatically.
Fixes
- Dictation island reliability — fixed the dictation island sometimes
not appearing after the app sits idle for a while, even though dictation
itself kept working. Arc Flow now checks on it periodically in the
background and silently repairs it if needed — no more needing to
restart the app. - Cleaner updates — fixed a brief command-window flash (showing raw
network output) that could appear right after an update finished
installing. - Microphone — fixed the onboarding microphone check failing when a
previously selected device was no longer connected (it now falls back to
your system's default microphone); fixed an internal loop on the
microphone setup screen that could repeatedly hit the settings store in
the background. - Cloud AI providers — fixed Groq requests failing outright due to a
reasoning-mode setting most models didn't support; removed a
decommissioned Groq model from the picker and fixed the GPT-OSS 120B
model id; fixed DeepSeek requests going to the wrong API path.
Improvements
- Onboarding's hotkey guide now correctly explains that the Ctrl+Win toggle
needs to be held for about a second, not just tapped.
