Heard 2.0.9

Heard 2.0.9

• Parrot keeps listening when you let go. If another app was already using your microphone (Siri, a meeting recorder, a call), releasing the Parrot key could end the conversation. Now only an app that starts using the mic while Parrot listens closes it.
• Parrot never reads code aloud. Updates are spoken in plain words; a line of code from a session is no longer read out character by character.
• Quit means quit. Quitting Heard from the menu bar now stops Parrot too, so your microphone and speakers are free straight away.
• Leaner error reports. Repeated status checks fold into one line, and refusals that are expected stay quiet, so reports carry only real problems.
• Fewer texts. A question Heard texted you is never sent again as a reminder. Answer it whenever you like.
• Session summaries work every time. About half the short summaries Heard keeps of each session were coming back empty; now they arrive, so Parrot knows what every session is doing.
• Clearer permission texts. When a terminal session asks to run a command, the text says what it will do in plain words instead of showing the raw command, and tapping your answer goes straight to that terminal.
• Texts always say what is asked. A session waiting on you is texted with its actual question, never "I can't see what it asks".
• One voice notice per outage. If Heard's voice can't be reached, you get one notice, not one a minute.
• Fixes. A background check no longer leaves a log file inside the app, which kept its signature from verifying, and some quiet background errors are gone.
