Hi there!
For those of you returning from the Thanksgiving holiday, welcome back! And to our global community, we're excited to share what we've been working on. Here's what's new in version 1.9:
π Introducing Detailed Meeting Notes
While our meeting summaries are great for quick takeaways, we know sometimes you need more depth. Pro users can now generate comprehensive meeting minutes or detailed study notes from any session. Simply open your completed session and tap the "Generate Detailed Notes" button. This is perfect for:
Creating thorough meeting documentation
Capturing in-depth lecture notes
Recording detailed client conversations
Maintaining comprehensive project records
Shoutout to Hedy user Doug W. who inspired and helped test this new feature!
π― Personalized Insights with Custom Context
Want Hedy to understand your unique perspective? Now you can provide context about yourself before each session - your role, goals, and expertise - helping Hedy deliver more relevant and impactful insights during your conversations. Whether you're a product manager discussing technical requirements or a sales leader preparing for client meetings, Hedy will tailor its suggestions to your specific needs.
Setting your context is now available via the Meeting Settings screen:
Tap the slider settings button in the bottom navigation ποΈ
Enter the context you want Hedy to know into the Session Context field
Click "Save Context"
Hedy will now take your context into consideration in all your chats.
π± Streamlined Session Interface
We've given the session history screen a fresh update to keep things organized as we add more features. The transcript now has its own dedicated tab, making it easier to focus on different aspects of your sessions. Plus, we've added auto-scrolling to the transcript β it now automatically follows your conversation in real-time, so you can stay on top of what's being discussed without manual scrolling. These small changes make a big difference in keeping your sessions smooth and distraction-free.
π Speaking More Languages
We're excited to welcome three new languages to the Hedy family:
Bahasa Indonesia
Bahasa Malay
Russian
A note on language support: We've received many requests for additional languages, and we want to be transparent about Hedy's capabilities. Since Hedy processes speech recognition directly on your device to protect your privacy, we're currently at the limit of what mobile devices can handle while maintaining our quality standards. We've thoroughly tested most major languages and have now implemented support for the languages that perform well with our current on-device processing model. While we hope to add more languages in the future as mobile processing power advances, this will likely take some time.
We continue to ship your top requests from the Hedy feature board. We're listening and iterating based on your input, so please keep it coming!
All these updates are now available in version 1.9, available in the App Store and Google Play.
