    What's New

    The latest features, improvements, and fixes in hearlog — newest first.

    Built with your feedback. Many of these updates started as messages from users telling us what wasn't working — keep them coming.

    August 2026

    New

    Pro: transcribe recordings up to 2 hours

    Pro members can now upload and transcribe audio files up to 2 hours long — long lectures, full meetings, day-long interviews. Long files are split into parts and transcribed one after another with live progress, and if any part fails the whole transcription stops with a clear error (never a half-finished transcript saved as if complete). Free plan stays at 100 minutes.

    Fixed

    WhatsApp voice notes now upload

    WhatsApp Android voice notes (.ogg) — and any file your browser can't quite label — are now accepted when the extension is a real audio format. Just drag & drop a file onto the uploader, too.

    New

    Pro: batch upload multiple files at once

    Drop up to 10 audio files and Pro transcribes them one after another, saving each as its own note automatically — with a live queue showing progress and per-file status. A file that fails doesn't stop the rest.

    July 2026

    Improved

    Push to Talk keeps your words, not your audio

    Your Push to Talk audio now stays on your device — only the transcript and translation are saved. Replay your recording while you're on the page, share either the transcript or the translation to WhatsApp, and keep your 20 most recent sessions on the Push to Talk page (they stay separate from your main notes). New: discard a recording or delete a saved session anytime.

    New

    Push to Talk: premium voices + a saved-session list

    Hear your translations in natural, studio-quality voices — pick a male or female voice per language, with a graceful fall back to your device voices when a language isn't covered. Your saved sessions now carry a "Push to Talk" tag in your notes, and the Push to Talk page lists your recent sessions.

    Improved

    Upload longer recordings

    Files up to 100MB — about 100 minutes of audio — are now supported, with clear guidance if a file's too large.

    New

    Record anywhere. Lose nothing.

    Offline recording: your audio is safe on your device through network drops and uploads + transcribes itself automatically when you're back online — recovered notes are marked so you can spot them.

    Improved

    Clearer status at every step

    You can now see exactly where your recording is — recording, uploading, transcribing, or ready — so nothing ever feels stuck or silent.

    Fixed

    More reliable note titles

    Auto-generated titles are steadier and no longer fail silently on long recordings. You can always regenerate a title from the note if you want a different one.

    Improved

    Translated summaries shown and saved

    When you translate a note, the translated summary now appears and is saved alongside the translated transcript — not just the transcript on its own.

    Improved

    Pre-select a translation before you upload

    Choose your target language before uploading a file, and the translation is applied automatically once transcription finishes — no extra step afterward.

    New

    Automatic summaries for uploaded files

    Uploading an audio file now generates a summary automatically, exactly like recording does — you get a ready-to-use note either way.

    Fixed

    No more flickering speaker labels

    Speaker labels no longer briefly flash and vanish while a transcript is being finalized — what you see settles cleanly.

    Improved

    Uploads start faster

    A fix to how files are checked means uploads begin sooner, so you spend less time waiting to get started.

    Improved

    Behind-the-scenes reliability

    Ongoing security and stability hardening around storage access and error monitoring keeps your recordings safe and helps us catch and fix issues faster.

    Improved

    Your screen stays awake while recording

    On phones, the screen now stays active during recording and the recorder resumes cleanly if the phone locks — so long recordings on mobile just keep going.

    June 2026

    Improved

    Never lose a recording to a bad network

    Recording keeps going through network drops and your audio is never lost — transcription retries automatically as soon as you're back online.

    New

    May 2026

    New

    Summary styles for every kind of recording

    Choose Meeting Notes, Lecture Notes, Detailed, Concise or Key Points, so your summary matches how you'll actually use it.

    Fixed

    Cleaner transcripts and exports

    Internal speaker tags no longer leak into your transcript or exported files — you just get clean, readable text.

    New

    Share your feedback right from the app

    A new feedback system lets you tell us what's working and what isn't — and the kindest comments show up as testimonials.
