v0.9.0 — Direct keyboard insertion

Choose a tag to compare

@MaximCosta MaximCosta released this 25 Jun 13:30

What's new

Direct keyboard insertion. Transcriptions are now typed straight into the focused app as keyboard input instead of going through the clipboard. This fixes the long-standing bug (#153) where the previous clipboard contents could be pasted instead of your transcription — most visible in browser/Electron apps like ChatGPT. As a bonus, a line break in a transcription no longer accidentally submits chat inputs, and Copy to Clipboard is now a fully independent option (on by default).

Fixes

  • Starting a recording no longer briefly freezes the global hotkey — the microphone-connection check moved off the main thread.
  • The menu-bar OpenSuperWhisper item reliably reopens the main window again.

Under the hood

On-device diagnostics (unified-log hot-path tracing + a main-thread watchdog) to catch any future stalls.


Two notarized builds: arm64 (Apple Silicon — Whisper · Parakeet · SenseVoice) and x86_64 (Intel — Whisper · Parakeet). Installs and updates via Homebrew and Sparkle.
