QuickWhisper 1.3 – Player & Segment Editing

We're incredibly excited to release our biggest update yet!

Introducing significant enhancements to audio management, transcript editing and speaker management. This update brings professional-grade features designed to streamline your transcription workflow.

New features

Smart Player

Ever wished you could hear exactly what you're reading in the transcript? Now you can! Our new smart audio makes you workflows easier:

  • Playback speed control

  • Watch segments highlighted in real-time as they're played

  • Navigate long transcript faster with visual segment previews

Advanced Transcript Editing

Take control of your transcripts with new editing capabilities:

  • Edit text in segments if you spot a a mistake.

  • Delete unwanted segments

  • Remove all segments before/after current position with one click to trim the fat from your transcripts

  • Perfect for cleaning up meeting recordings

Better Speaker Management

Remember our experimental Speaker detection feature? We've taken it to the next level.

  • Change speakers name from generic Speaker 1, Speaker 2 to real ones.

  • Manually assigning speakers to segments to correct auto-detection errors.

Enhanced Recording Controls

Choose to record system audio exclusively, eliminating microphone feedback when not using headphones.

New High-Performing Voice Model

Added the latest OpenAi’s Large v3 Turbo. The new model has transcription quality of Large v2 and lightning-fast speed close to Base models on benchmarks. You should give it a try!

Optimised Size

We sent QuickWhisper to the gym (metaphorically). After optimisations the app lost more than 100Mb, which means higher perfromance and faster updates.

Fixes

Because nobody likes bugs:

  • Fixed Large v2 Norwegian model download issues

  • Corrected speaker detection progress indicator showing over 100%

  • Resolved empty transcription screen after cancellation
