How to fully clear all TypeWhisper settings to start from fresh?

[joonshakya]

I have been having an issue where TypeWhisper voice recording starts after like a second after I press the PTT hotkey. It only happens in the production version of the TypeWhisperer app, When I try building the development version of TypeWhisper using Xcode, I don't see the delay.

I had been using TypeWhisperer since version 1.2.0. Maybe even after the bug got fixed, some settings in my device is misconfigured. So I'm thinking if resetting whole settings in Type Whisper would fix it.

I tried running these commands but it did not help.

rm -rf \
  ~/Library/Application\ Support/TypeWhisper-Dev \
  ~/Library/Application\ Support/TypeWhisper \
  ~/Library/Preferences/com.typewhisper.mac.plist \
  ~/Library/Preferences/com.typewhisper.mac.dev.plist \

&& echo "Done"

Thanks for the detailed reset attempt.

We now route this kind of support through the TypeWhisper support page: https://www.typewhisper.com/en/support/

Before we dig further into local state, could you install the current TypeWhisper 1.4 build from the releases page and check whether the Push-to-Talk delay still happens? https://github.com/TypeWhisper/typewhisper-mac/releases

If it still reproduces on 1.4, please open a macOS issue from the support page with:

• TypeWhisper version and macOS version
• whether this happens with every engine/profile or only one setup
• the Push-to-Talk hotkey configuration
• the JSON diagnostics export from the Error Log, if available

The reset command you tried already covers the main TypeWhisper app support data, preferences, caches, group containers, and widget containers. If the production app still shows a delay while a local development build does not, I would treat that as production-build behavior to debug rather than only stale local settings.
