Windows Performance and Stability (v3.2)
Under-the-hood work to make Hedy on Windows faster and more resilient:
- Moved the local database to LOCALAPPDATA so Windows Defender can no longer block writes.
- Audio decoding and duration lookup now run on a worker thread, so the UI no longer freezes while importing large files.
- Added a GPU acceleration toggle for Whisper in settings.

Topic Management Reliability (v3.2)
Several fixes to make topics more reliable:
- Deleting a topic now closes cleanly and no longer shows a false success message if deletion fails.
- Prevented duplicate topics from appearing after creating a new one.
- Sessions stay attached to their topics after restarting the app.
A new speech engine and a major new capability: Hedy can now identify who is speaking and show it in the transcript.
Speaker-Attributed Transcripts
Transcripts now show who said what. Each speaker gets a unique color and label, and the transcript is displayed turn by turn — grouping what each person said together. This makes it much easier to follow multi-person conversations.
How Speaker Identification Works
- During recording: Speaker labels appear in real-time as the conversation happens
- After recording: A more accurate pass runs on the complete audio, refining speaker assignments for the best result
- In summaries and notes: Anonymous labels like "Speaker 1" are cleaned up — only named speakers appear
Parakeet TDT v3 Engine
The speaker identification is powered by a new speech engine based on NVIDIA's Parakeet TDT v3 model, which also offers improved transcription accuracy compared to Whisper.
How to enable:
- Open Settings and go to Transcription
- Select "Parakeet (Beta)" from the speech engine dropdown
- Download the required models (a progress indicator shows each stage)
- Start a session as normal
Parakeet also works when importing audio files, with full speaker diarization applied to the imported audio.
Beta notes:
Currently available on macOS with Apple Silicon only. You can switch back to Whisper at any time in Settings.new

iCloud Audio Sync (v3.1)
Your session audio recordings now sync automatically via iCloud across your Apple devices.
How it works:
- After each session, the recording uploads to your private iCloud account in the background
- On your other Apple devices, a download bar appears on the audio player showing the file size and a "Download" button
- Tap to download and the recording is ready for playback
Good to know:
- Enable it in Settings under Privacy & System ("Sync Recordings to iCloud")
- You also need Cloud Sync enabled for the sessions themselves to appear on other devices — iCloud Audio Sync handles just the recordings
- Uploads retry automatically if they fail due to network issues
