RecapMuse Changelog

What's new, in plain English.

Every update since launch, newest first: what you get, what got better, and what got fixed. No jargon, no marketing gloss.

1.7.0LatestJuly 21, 2026
New
  • A quiet "Updated" toast confirms a silent update just finished, then gets out of your way in a few seconds.
Improved
  • The Update Ready card now tells you what's new in one plain line, with a "Learn more" link to this page when there's more to read.
  • A new "From now on, update silently even while I'm working" checkbox: check it once and updates just happen quietly from then on, on your next quit or relaunch.
  • The Update Ready card now shows at most once per version, never repeatedly.
1.6.0July 21, 2026
New
  • A branded Update Ready card: when an update is ready, RecapMuse shows a small card and lets you choose "Update Now" or "Later," instead of silently swapping itself out from under you and risking an in-progress recording.
1.5.0July 17, 2026
New
  • Works with your AI: connect RecapMuse to Claude Desktop from Settings in one click. Claude can then list your conversations, read transcripts, search your recorded days, and answer questions, all read-only and all on your Mac.
1.4.1July 14, 2026
New
  • Share Recap: send a Diary conversation, its title, who and when, the summary, and the action items, over AirDrop, Messages, Mail, or Notes. One tap, one conversation, never the raw transcript or audio.
1.4.0July 1, 2026
New
  • RecapMuse now updates itself: it checks on launch and every six hours and installs verified updates safely in the background.
1.3.0June 17, 2026

The AI organizer moved into the app itself: open RecapMuse and see a readable Diary of your day instead of a list of timestamps.

New
  • A Diary view shows your recordings as reverse-chronological conversation cards: an AI-written title, who you were with, a summary, and action items.
  • Recordings are transcribed, titled, and grouped into conversations automatically.
  • Recent recordings show an AI title and who you were with, instead of a bare filename.
  • Add your OpenAI key once in Settings (stored in the macOS Keychain, never in a plain file) to turn on AI organizing. Without a key, RecapMuse still records and live-transcribes.
  • New recordings organize themselves automatically within about ninety seconds, or tap "Organize now" to run it immediately.
1.2.0June 16, 2026
New
  • Live transcript: while you're recording, watch your meeting transcribed in real time, entirely on your Mac.
  • Screen Recording permission now prompts properly the first time you need it and shows up correctly in System Settings.
Improved
  • Now targets macOS 26 on Apple Silicon, using the newest on-device speech technology.
  • System-audio capture is on by default.
Fixed
  • Opening RecapMuse while it's already running now brings the existing window forward instead of beeping.
1.1.0June 16, 2026
New
  • Pause Capture (Wispr Mode): a one-click way to stop any recording and pause auto-start, for guaranteed quiet during dictation or a sensitive call.
Improved
  • System-audio capture now uses a safer method that never disrupts your microphone in other apps.
  • Capture is off by default until you turn it on.
1.0.0June 15, 2026

First release: the menu-bar recorder becomes a complete, self-serve Mac tool.

New
  • A branded About view, a Help center with a quick-start guide and FAQ, and a clean installer.
  • Start and stop recording with a keyboard shortcut (⌘R).
  • A one-time nudge to grant microphone permission the first time you record.

Never forget another word.

RecapMuse records your calls and meetings, transcribes them live on your Mac, and hands your day back as a searchable memory.
