enprompt 1.9.17

Teach me — now fully synchronized

• Glow box fix: the on-screen highlight is now captured at the moment you select text — the popover no longer confuses it, so the glow stays exactly on your selection.
• Word-exact highlighting with the free Edge neural voices: enprompt now reads the voice's own subtitle timestamps, so the orange word highlight and the caption change at the exact moment each word/sentence is spoken — no more drifting.
• The glow is clipped to the visible screen, so it can never float off display.

What's in 1.9.17

• Teach me (⌥T): select text, get a simple ELI5 explanation read aloud in 18 languages + Hinglish with free neural voices (Settings → Install neural voices, one time, ~5 MB, no account).
• On-screen teaching overlay: the explanation floats over your screen with the spoken word highlighted and a glow around your selection (toggle in Settings).
• Red Stop button while teaching/speaking; hold ⌥T to stop instantly.
• Cleaner popover: shortcut chips, live character counter, status rows.
• App will prompt to update itself from this release.

enprompt 1.9.16

Fully automatic free setup - zero manual steps.

One click now does EVERYTHING:

1. If the free Ollama app isn't installed, enprompt downloads it (~190 MB) and installs it into /Applications by itself - no browser, no drag-and-drop, no terminal.
2. It starts Ollama and waits for it.
3. It downloads llama3.2 (text, ~2 GB) + qwen2.5vl (vision, ~6 GB) at the SAME TIME with a live 0-100% progress bar showing exactly what's happening ('Downloading the free Ollama app… 42%' → 'Starting Ollama…' → 'Downloading llama3.2 + qwen2.5vl at the same time… 80%').
4. At 100% both models are selected automatically and Enhance just works.

New user flow: install enprompt -> pick Ollama in Settings -> click 'Install everything (Ollama + both models)' -> wait for 100% -> done. That's it.

enprompt 1.9.15

One default system prompt for everyone.

Every install now runs the exact same default system prompt - enprompt as a prompt-engineering engine (the 'Polished rewrite (default)' preset). This update resets any stored system prompt back to that shared default, so no user keeps a stale, old, or divergent prompt from a previous version.

Also on the site: the system-prompt guide now documents the shared default and its 21 rules, and the download command is updated.

enprompt 1.9.14

Update fix: the app now checks GitHub for a new release every time you open the popover (previously throttled to once per hour, so a fresh release could stay hidden for up to an hour).

If you're on 1.9.12: open the enprompt popover once and the 1.9.14 banner appears - click Update now and it swaps in place automatically.

enprompt 1.9.13

One-click free local setup - no terminal needed:

• The app checks if the models are installed; if not, a banner appears right in the popover and in Settings with a single Install button.
• Click it once: llama3.2 (text, ~2 GB) + qwen2.5vl (vision, ~6 GB) download AT THE SAME TIME with a live 0-100% progress bar.
• When it hits 100%, enprompt picks both models automatically and you're ready - enhance works immediately.
• If Ollama isn't installed: Settings walks you through (Install Ollama -> Continue -> done).
• Fetches the model list when the popover opens so the banner stays accurate.

enprompt 1.9.12

Fix: triple-tapping Option while the drawing canvas is already open no longer stacks a second (or third) fullscreen canvas. Extra triple-taps are ignored until the current canvas is closed.

enprompt 1.9.11

Fix: enhance now works in Cursor and other Electron apps (VS Code etc.) whose accessibility tree hides the focused input. Two new paths: a deeper AX search for editable fields holding text, and a keyboard fallback (select-all + copy, then paste the result back in place) when the app reports nothing at all.

enprompt 1.9.10

Fix: Enhance no longer works on old/stale text. Clicking Enhance (or double-tapping Option) with nothing selected now shows a clear 'No text found - select the text first' message instead of silently enhancing whatever was selected earlier. The remembered selection is now only used by the explicit Prepare reply flow.

enprompt 1.9.9

Friendly errors: every error now shows a clear title, plain-language guidance on what to do, and a one-click Open Settings shortcut where it helps. Prepare reply menu appears only when a reply preset (X.com/Email/Founder) is active - otherwise the popover shows a plain Enhance button.

enprompt 1.9.8

Fix: reading text selections on Chrome and other apps that hide their AX focus info - enprompt now also hit-tests at the cursor and remembers the selection for a minute, so Prepare reply works even after the popover opens. Clipboard is used as a last resort.
