- About page — what Larkyn is, the technology inside it (Whisper, Gemma 4 via Ollama, PySide6/Fluent, SQLite), and credits, with a link back to this repo.
- Start with Windows — new switch in Settings → Startup. Larkyn registers itself to launch minimized to the tray at sign-in (per-user, no admin), so dictation is always one hotkey away. Works alongside or instead of the installer's startup option — no double-launching.
Install / upgrade
Upgrading from 0.2.x: just run LarkynSetup.exe — installs in place, settings and history kept.
First time? Follow the 4-step setup in the v0.2.2 release notes or the README: install Ollama, ollama pull gemma4:e2b-it-qat, run LarkynSetup.exe, dictate.
Verify your download against SHA256SUMS.txt. Unsigned installer: if SmartScreen warns, More info → Run anyway.
