Seconded.
The previous recordings feature is neat, but I would also like to either be able to disable it entirely or set some limit where I only want to keep the previous N recordings. I do not know how the collection mechanism works currently, but I can see this growing quite large as I use this all the time and want to be able to not store these transcriptions long term.
Agree. <5 is ample, relative to function.
Just wanted to say excellent work on the refactor and getting this out. I'm very excited to try out the failed recordings mode, but I have yet to see that one happen. Hopefully it happens while I'm writing this note and I get to check that out.
A couple of notes I have for feedback that are fairly simple tweaks: (working on an intel macbook)
The auto-paste feature is not working. When I end the recording with the global hotkey, even though I have the feature enabled, it does not paste anything onto my current page.
Perhaps there can be a settings toggle to hold the window over all the other windows. I rather like being able to let it go behind my current working window and refocus when I stop recording. Right now it is just always sitting on top of my current window. I preferred the other behavior where it was not focused and would focus when recording, and then if the auto-paste feature was working, it would refocus and paste. It's currently not doing this.
The notifications are maybe a bit much. I'm going to have to disable them on my system. Maybe there's a setting we can add to not have system or the toast notifications show up as they cover most of the screen and are a bit spammy. I also cannot dismiss the toast notifications, so when I have a smaller window, they completely cover my ability to click anything. They're also not dismissing for some reason. It eventually dismissed when I interacted with the window more. I think instead of having these pop-up notifications just having a single location that says the current state or something would be more useful. A lot of the times that I'm using whispering I'm just trusting that it's doing the right thing in the background and I don't need visual spam. I know others may have preferences, I think a toggle to disable notifications might be the way to go.
The API key is currently not hidden and remains in visible text in the settings window.
There's no way to minimize the whispering window unless I do Command-H, otherwise the yellow minimize button on Mac is not visible.

Overall, fantastic job on this release!
