v0.11.3

Released: 2026-08-22

• Fixed dictating "new line" completely on its own (nothing else said) sometimes typing the literal words "New line" instead of inserting a break.
• Added a "literal" trigger word: say "literal new line", "literal period", "literal comma", "literal question mark", or "literal exclamation mark/point" to force that exact result, guaranteed, regardless of how long or complex the dictation is.

Not notarized (same as every release so far — no Apple Developer Program enrollment). If you download the .dmg directly, Gatekeeper will warn you; brew install --cask imtamiliniyan/quill/quill opens with no warning.

v0.11.2

Released: 2026-08-21

• Fixed spoken digit lists like "number one, number two, number three" not converting to "1 2 3" when there's no other content between them.
• Added a quick light/dark toggle and a bug-report shortcut in the title bar, always reachable regardless of which tab is open.
• Feedback now offers a "Copy Instead" fallback if your Mac doesn't open a mail app for the Send Feedback button.
• Fixed ⌘C/⌘V not working in text fields throughout the app.

Quill 0.11.1

Released: 2026-08-21

• Fixed the update feed itself. Sparkle's update check (SUFeedURL) was pointed at raw.githubusercontent.com, whose CDN cache confirmed to serve a stale appcast for several minutes after a push — and inconsistently across edge locations, so "Check for Updates" could still say you're up to date well after a new version shipped. Switched to jsDelivr's GitHub CDN mirror, which supports an explicit cache purge, so a pushed update now goes live within seconds.

This is an infrastructure-only patch — no other app behavior changed since v0.11.0.

Quill 0.11.0

Released: 2026-08-21

• Fixed Local AI (on-device) dictation cleanup being unreliable: it could drop items from a list, respond to your dictation as if it were a chat question instead of cleaning it, or occasionally invent content that was never said. Local AI now reliably keeps every word and every list item you actually dictated.
• Spoken enumerations ("number one... number two...", or "first... second...") now format into a real numbered list.
• Spoken digit sequences ("five five five one two three four") now convert to actual numerals instead of staying spelled out as words.
• Renamed the "Medium" Auto Cleanup tier to "Cloud Model" in Style settings — the old name was a leftover from a retired internal naming scheme and didn't say what it actually was (the cloud/BYOK tier, as opposed to Local AI which runs entirely on-device).

Full Changelog: v0.10.0...v0.11.0

Quill 0.10.0

Released: 2026-08-21

• Fixed a real crash: Local AI (on-device rewriting) could crash Quill on Apple M5 Macs the moment a model tried to load. Verified fixed on real M5 hardware, not just in code.
• Enhancement Engine no longer shows a cloud provider and Local AI as both "Active" at once — only whichever one Auto Cleanup is actually set to says "Active" now; the other says what it's really doing instead.

Full Changelog: v0.9.0...v0.10.0

Quill 0.9.0

Released: 2026-08-21

• Local AI now offers a second on-device model, Qwen2.5 3B, alongside the original Llama 3.2 3B — pick either in Enhancement Engine, no key or cloud needed for either.
• Removed Auto Cleanup's "Light" tier — it never did real formatting (spoken times, spoken lists), so it was a dead end next to None. Local AI and Medium still fall back to the same basic filler cleanup when their backend isn't ready.
• Insights: hovering the Activity chart or the streak calendar now shows the exact word count for that day.
• Send Feedback can now attach a real local debug log to help diagnose bugs faster — never your dictated text, on by default, one toggle in Settings > Data & Privacy to turn off.

Full Changelog: v0.8.0...v0.9.0

Quill v0.8.0

Released: 2026-08-21

• Real auto-update: Quill can now find and install its own updates (Sparkle), replacing the old manual GitHub-check.
• Remove Filler Words moved from Voice Engine to Style, next to Auto Cleanup.
• Check for Updates now shows Quill's actual app icon instead of a generic checkmark.
• Landing page: Download for Mac replaces the waitlist sign-up across the site.

Quill v0.7.0

Released: 2026-08-21

Local, on-device dictation for macOS.

Highlights

• Three new menu bar items: "Copy Last Transcript" copies your most recent dictation straight to the clipboard, no window needed. "Settings…" (⌘,) opens straight to the Settings sheet. "Check for Updates…" checks this repo's real GitHub Releases and shows what's new, with a "More…" link into the full Change Log for anything beyond the first couple of changes.

Everything runs locally on your Mac — nothing is uploaded unless you connect your own cloud API key.

Quill v0.6.0

Released: 2026-08-21

Local, on-device dictation for macOS.

Highlights

• Comprehensive dictation cleanup: filler-word removal, spoken-number conversion ("five thirty" → 5:30), spoken formatting commands ("new line", "bold X", "header X"), spoken self-corrections ("scratch that"), abbreviation expansion, and emoji-name conversion, layered under Style's existing tone picker (Formal/Casual/Concise/Very Casual). Applies to every LLM-backed path: Local AI and all four BYOK providers.
• README overhaul: real GitHub Stars/Sponsor/LinkedIn/Models badges, a working download link, and a real supported-models table.
• Attribution cleanup: LICENSE copyright holder corrected.

Everything runs locally on your Mac — nothing is uploaded unless you connect your own cloud API key.

Full Changelog: v0.5.0...v0.6.0

Quill v0.5.0

Local, on-device dictation for macOS — hold a hotkey, speak, and it types wherever you're focused.

Highlights

• Voice Engine: 9 transcription models (Whisper tiny → large-v3, Parakeet v2/v3/110M-fast), switch anytime from the menu bar or sidebar.
• Enhancement Engine: clean up dictation fully on-device with Local AI (no key needed), or bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key.

• Insights: words per minute, streaks, time saved, all computed locally from your own history.

Fixes in this release

• Insights' "Fixes Made by Quill" wasn't counting Google/OpenRouter-powered cleanups.
• Enhancement Engine could resize the main window unexpectedly.
• Onboarding's Continue button could be cropped off-screen with the full model list.

Everything runs locally on your Mac — nothing is uploaded unless you connect your own cloud API key.
