History

The History page keeps a searchable record of your recent transcriptions and the text TypeWhisper has produced. It also turns the edits you make into correction suggestions that can feed your dictionary.

The History page: search box, app filter, Export / Clear all, the entry counter, and the timeline of recent transcriptions

Searchable history and recent transcriptions

History stores your transcriptions so you can search and review recent results. You can search across past entries to find a specific transcription.

An expanded history entry showing its full text, metadata (date, word count, language), and per-entry actions: Edit, Copy, Add term, Play, and Delete

📸 Screenshot needed: The History search box with a query entered and matching results filtered below it.

Note: History can contain personal or sensitive transcribed text. Treat it like any other record of what you have dictated, and use the retention controls below if you do not want transcriptions stored indefinitely.

Retention

History retention is configured on the Advanced page, with modes Duration (default 90 days), Forever, or Until app closes, plus a Save to history toggle for runs you do not want stored. See Advanced settings for the full set of retention controls.

Correction suggestions

TypeWhisper generates correction suggestions from the edits you make to entries in history. These suggestions can optionally be auto-learned into your dictionary, and they carry confidence scoring so you can judge how reliable a suggested correction is.

When auto-learning is enabled, accepted corrections flow into the Dictionary as entries — where they are tracked with a CorrectionSuggestion or AutoLearned source — so future transcriptions apply the correction automatically.

📸 Screenshot needed: A correction suggestion derived from an edited history entry, showing its confidence score and the option to learn it into the dictionary.
