Thai speed & mode-accuracy fixes

• УлучшеноThai transcription and translation now appear noticeably faster — delivery delay dropped from around 6 seconds to under 1.
• ИсправленоFixed Medical mode failing outright for Chinese and Arabic sessions.
• ИсправленоFixed Gaming and Meeting mode's specialized vocabulary list being applied even on non-English sessions, where it couldn't help and slightly hurt accuracy — it's now used only for English.

Sentence-cutoff & long-pause fixes

• ИсправленоFixed an issue where a sentence could be cut off mid-word during a natural pause in speech, sometimes corrupting the text that followed.
• ИсправленоFixed a rarer issue where a long stretch of speech (up to around 49 seconds in one observed case) could go completely untranslated — pauses that used to slip past the safety net are now caught reliably.

Certificate fix & more natural sentence breaks

• ИсправленоFixed a connection issue that could prevent some users from reaching speech recognition at all, caused by a single corrupted security certificate in the Windows certificate store.
• ИсправленоSubtitle and translation text is now split more naturally at sentence boundaries — a single sentence no longer occasionally arrives as two separate, disconnected pieces.

Speech-recognition reliability

A reliability-focused release — several ways speech could silently go missing are now closed.

• УлучшеноSpeech recognition is more resilient to connection trouble — if part of the recognition service becomes unreachable, StreamVox automatically tries a backup connection instead of ending the session.
• УлучшеноIf a connection genuinely fails, StreamVox now tells you clearly, instead of silently doing nothing while appearing to still be working.
• ИсправленоThe very first words spoken right as a session starts are no longer lost while the connection is being established.
• ИсправленоCleaner microphone audio when the input is loud.
• УлучшеноMore reliable microphone capture-device selection.
• НовоеA warning now appears if your microphone isn't picking up any sound at all.
• ИсправленоConversation mode: when two speakers switch languages back-to-back with no pause, each part is now translated in its own correct language, instead of one language being applied to both.
• ИсправленоSpeech that the recognition engine failed to properly finalize is no longer lost — it's now recovered and still delivered.

The reliability release

Steadier connection handling, easier-to-hit buttons, and a top bar that looks the same on every macOS version.

• ИсправленоFixed for macOS 14 and 15 — the top bar could stretch and overlap; it now looks the same on every macOS version.
• УлучшеноThe top-bar button now names your current plan and opens the plan list in one click — move up or down, and nothing is purchased automatically.
• УлучшеноButtons are easier to hit — they respond across their whole area, not just the label, and light up under the pointer.
• УлучшеноBetter behaviour when the connection is having trouble — StreamVox waits until it's really connected, retries by itself, and tells you plainly if it still doesn't work, instead of waiting in silence.

Quality & interface polish

Sharper Conversation mode, a clearer status footer, and a cleaner look throughout.

• ИсправленоConversation mode now translates the first phrase after each language switch correctly.
• ИсправленоThe window no longer slides off the bottom of the screen when you turn on spoken translation.

Subscriptions & purchases

• УлучшеноRestore Purchases now shows the result — your current plan, or a note if no purchases were found.
• ИсправленоPurchases awaiting approval (Ask to Buy) now show as pending instead of an error.
• УлучшеноSubscription status updates faster and more reliably across your devices.

• ИсправленоGuest usage is now preserved when signing in and out of an account.

Purchase protection & subscription polish

Safeguards that make sure you're never charged twice — plus a cleaner plan-selection screen.

• НовоеPurchase protection — StreamVox checks your account before any purchase and warns you if you already have an active subscription, so you can't pay twice by accident.
• НовоеCross-store safeguard — if your plan is billed through a different store (for example the Microsoft Store vs. our website), you get a clear heads-up before buying, so you're never charged twice.
• УлучшеноCleaner plan-selection screen — better layout, and the Unlimited plan now has its own premium look.

Stability & clarity

• ИсправленоSquashed a crash that could occur when closing the app — StreamVox now shuts down cleanly every time.
• УлучшеноThe upgrade screen now clearly states the subscription terms (monthly, auto-renewing) and exactly how to cancel with each payment method.
• УлучшеноExtra reliability polish under the hood.

Teleprompter Lock for gamers & single-window

• НовоеTeleprompter Lock (🔒) makes the overlay fully click-through — your cursor and camera stay with the game while translations stay visible. Press Ctrl+Shift+L to unlock.
• ИсправленоLaunching twice no longer opens a second copy or shows a false "already in use on another device" — it just brings your existing window to the front.

Teleprompter session prompt & quick overlay settings

The 2-hour "still there?" check-in protects your monthly plan minutes if you step away and forget to stop.

• УлучшеноThe 2-hour check-in now appears inside the teleprompter window — easy to spot even in a fullscreen game.

• УлучшеноStays running through long gaming streams, multi-hour calls and all-day meetings without disconnecting on its own.

Mandarin & Gujarati input — 52 languages

• НовоеMandarin Chinese as an input language — both Simplified (Mainland) and Traditional (Taiwan, Hong Kong).
• НовоеGujarati added — the first Indo-Aryan language in the StreamVox family.
• УлучшеноCleaner spacing and punctuation for Chinese and Indian scripts — no awkward gaps between characters.
• Новое52 input languages total, up from 49.

Crash fixes, teleprompter clear & sharper icons

Cleaner sentence breaks & word-by-word reveal

• УлучшеноSentences no longer break in the middle of a word or after an abbreviation like "Dr." or "U.S.A."; short orphan words merge with the previous line instead of dangling.
• НовоеTranslations appear word by word, in a natural rhythm — feels alive, like watching a person type (iOS 26 live-captions style).

Smarter subtitle layout & live preview

• НовоеSubtitles adapt their layout to each language — no awkward line breaks. Works naturally for English, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Arabic, Hindi and 40+ others.
