OpenWhispr 1.10.4

What's new in 1.10.4

OpenWhispr 1.10.4
Tone & Style writes your dictation, and the assistant's drafts, in the tone you pick for each kind of app. The AI Summary is more detailed by default, notes can link to a calendar event, and you can set a reasoning effort per model scope.
🌟 Highlights
- 🎨 Tone & Style — Pick a tone for personal messages, work chats, email and everything else, and cleanup writes in it for the app you're in. Off by default; turn it on in Settings → Tone & Style.
- 📝 Detailed AI Summary — Generate AI Summary now writes the same notes as the Detailed Notes template.
- 📅 Calendar events on notes — Link any note to its meeting to pull in the guests and join link.
- 🧠 Reasoning effort — Choose how hard reasoning models think, per scope.
- ❓ Ask about OpenWhispr — The chat answers questions about the app from the docs and your settings.
✨ Also new
"This is me" in the speaker picker, searchable overflow for long sidebar folders, onboarding key checks as you type, Claude 5.5 models, and Qwen3.8 27B on Groq.
🛠 Fixes
- Dictation: Local and self-hosted cleanup models always run when you dictate through OpenWhispr Cloud or a streaming provider, and a failed selection edit keeps your transcript.
- Meetings and notes: Resumed recordings keep speakers apart, stopping a local meeting keeps its last words, and in-person speakers are no longer all attributed to you.
- Transcription and AI: OpenAI live dictation uses your language and dictionary, stalled replies no longer hang, and self-hosted models stay selected after a restart.
- Linux: Voice assistant answers paste at the caret, and paste works on niri, sway, Hyprland and KDE with non-Latin layouts.
- Windows: Local Whisper works for user profiles with accented names.
⚠️ Heads-up
On niri, sway and Hyprland, auto-paste into Wayland apps now needs wl-clipboard.
