## 0.3.0 (2026-02-08)

ParrotScribe 0.3.0 introduces Speaker Recognition, encrypted storage, and a new Library window for managing your transcription sessions.

### What's New

- **Speaker Recognition**: ParrotScribe can now identify who's speaking in your transcripts. After a session, name your speakers and the app will recognize them in future sessions. Speaker data is protected with biometric authentication and encrypted on-device.
- **Library Window**: A new Library window (⌃⌘L) for browsing all your sessions and managing enrolled speakers. Includes a Session Viewer with synchronized audio playback and waveform visualization.
- **Audio Retention**: Optionally retain encrypted session audio for playback and speaker identification. Configure retention period or storage limits in Settings.
- **Encrypted Storage**: All transcripts, speaker data, and retained audio are now encrypted at rest for an additional layer of privacy.
- **Export Command**: Use `pscribe export` to export transcripts from the command line.
- **Keyboard Shortcuts**: Configure system-wide hotkeys to toggle, start, or stop transcription — all without switching apps. Full keyboard navigation throughout the app.
- **Notifications**: Get notified when transcription starts, stops, or begins a new session.
- **Accessibility**: Full VoiceOver support, Reduce Motion support, and text labels alongside all color indicators.
- **Extended Trial**: Free trial period extended from 3 to 7 days.

### What's Improved

- **Speaker Identification**: Clearer visual feedback when identifying speakers, with accent-colored toolbar buttons and notification-based attribution.
- **CLI**: Speaker names now appear correctly in `cat`, `tail`, and `grep` output. The `cat` command defaults to showing the last session.
- **System Audio**: Improved system audio capture using ScreenCaptureKit for better reliability.
- **Data Storage**: Transcripts are now stored in a protected location with automatic migration from earlier versions.
- **Uninstall Safety**: `pscribe uninstall` now preserves your transcripts and speaker data by default.

### What's Fixed

- **Upgrade Reliability**: All existing sessions are preserved correctly when upgrading from earlier versions.
- **Window Management**: Pressing ⌘Q now closes windows and returns to menu-bar mode instead of quitting the app.
- **Transcription Quality**: Improved accuracy by filtering AI model artifacts from output.
