[v0.7.0]Apr 28, 2026Major

A new look, a floating recorder, and a vault that feels like home.

Hyprcore's biggest release yet. The whole app has been rebuilt on a calm, document-style design system. Meetings now record in their own floating window, the vault feels like a real workspace, ⌘K opens anywhere, and notes get Notion-style icons and cover images. Plus in-app analytics opt-in and a refreshed brand.

01

A full visual revamp — warm neutrals, terracotta accent, document-style editor

02

A floating meeting recorder window with live transcript, notes, and ask in one place

03

Notion-style page icons and cover images for notes, folders, and meetings

04

⌘K command palette with real search and recency — jump anywhere, instantly

05

A new Home screen, two-pane Settings, and revamped Models, Intelligence, and Subscription pages

New
  • Floating meeting recorder window — drag the pill, expand for live transcript / notes / ask, traffic-light controls (red stop, yellow collapse), pre-warmed at startup so it appears instantly
  • Page chrome — pick an icon and a cover image for any note, folder, or meeting; 20 bundled gradient covers, curated icon set, per-page cover repositioner
  • ⌘K command palette — real-time title search, recents, and base actions (start meeting, dictation, new note); click the sidebar search bar to open it
  • Home screen — quick actions, today, recently opened, and open loops in one place
  • Settings rebuilt as a two-pane layout with grouped navigation; new Updates, Subscription, Sync, Profile, and Meetings-permissions pages
  • Meeting note rewritten as a document with the transcript drawer beside it; video gets a hero embed under the meta
  • Usermaven analytics opt-in — tracks signup, login, upgrade, and team invite
  • Onboarding consent step — explicit recording-notice screen before model selection
  • Notion-style folder management in the sidebar — rename, delete, new note, new subfolder, pick an icon
  • Default Work, Personal, and Archive folders seeded for new vaults
  • Topbar processing pill and ghost placeholders while a meeting is post-processing

  • Onboarding revamped with a card layout and clearer step indicators
  • Streaming transcripts feel more responsive — STT chunk target dropped from 20s to 10s
  • Tray icon swaps no longer hitch the UI thread; meeting + dictation states are arbitrated through one path
  • Meetings open from the Vault as a single canonical note row instead of a split note + session pair
Fixed

  • Free-plan cloud option now shows an Upgrade button that opens the upgrade page in your browser
Improved

  • Default web app host is now app.hyprcore.ai everywhere — auth, entitlements, settings
Fixed
  • Auto-updater bundles (.app.tar.gz + signature) now actually ship alongside the DMG, so v0.6.0 installs can update themselves to v0.6.1 without a manual reinstall
[v0.6.0]Apr 18, 2026Major

Updates, delivered quietly.

Hyprcore now updates itself. A quiet background check on every launch, a small toast when a new version is ready, and a dedicated Updates tab in Settings when you want to see what's coming.

01

Background auto-update check every time the app launches

A subtle in-app toast when a new version is ready

[v0.5.0]Apr 10, 2026Major

Action items, and Hyprcore for teams.

[v0.3.0]Nov 24, 2025Major

Meetings are a first-class thing.

01

A meeting vault with dedicated folders for every session

02

Live transcripts with a session detail page

Every meeting stored as markdown you can open in any editor

  • Start a meeting straight from the macOS menu bar — no need to open the main window
Improved
  • Sidebar navigation redesigned around the vault concept

  • Paste sometimes inserted an extra trailing space on macOS 14+
  • Linux: keycode mapping mismatch on Wayland when using a tiling window manager

  • Onboarding window remembers progress if you close it mid-setup
Fixed
  • Audio device picker occasionally displayed devices twice
Fixed
  • Model load failure on slow HDDs or drives with less than 5 GB free
  • Rare race condition on first launch when multiple models initialized simultaneously
  • Windows installer: completion hang when running under certain antivirus software
