Releases

Changelog

The latest Daisy releases with notes. Sourced from the same appcast.xml Sparkle uses to serve auto-updates — when a new version ships, this page reflects it.

Daisy 1.0.8.33

build 150 · 18 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.33

  • Help make Daisy better — if you want to. Daisy asks once whether it may send a short daily summary of which features ran and where something went wrong. Numbers only: no text, titles, names or identifier, so we never know who you are. "See What's Sent" shows the report word for word; About → Help improve Daisy turns it on or off. Every counter is listed in the source.
  • Dictation history keeps as long as you choose: 24 hours, 7 days (the new default), 30 days or always. "Paste last dictation" pastes only a dictation from the last hour.
  • Imports know what's already there. A file already in the Library says so and is left out unless you tick "Import again". Quitting while Daisy copies an import or transcribes stored audio asks first.
  • iCloud sync is safer: an edit made on another device at the same moment is no longer overwritten, and a relaunch no longer downloads everything again.
  • A next step you only shared stays open. Sending it to participants, a tracker or an assistant no longer counts it as done.
  • iPhone recordings waiting for speaker separation survive a relaunch; leftover hidden copies from a killed import are cleaned up; Russian text fixed throughout.

Daisy 1.0.8.32

build 149 · 10 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.32

  • Crash reports, only when you send one. If Daisy closes unexpectedly, the next launch asks whether to send a report to the developer and shows the whole report first: where it failed, the app and macOS versions and the Mac model — never your meetings, names, files or devices. Nothing is sent without your answer; About → Crash reports can turn the question off.
  • A pause no longer pulls the two voices apart. Recordings with pauses keep your voice and the others' lined up in exports.
  • New widget colours: a sage centre at rest, orange for a meeting, lilac for dictation, blue for a voice note, red for an error; when paused the centre stays orange and the petals turn grey.
  • GPT-6.1 Sol is the default OpenAI model — faster and cheaper than GPT-5.6 Terra, which stays in the list. Token costs now count OpenAI's prompt-cache writes at their own price.

Daisy 1.0.8.31

build 148 · 9 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.31

  • Your voice and the others' line up. The microphone and system-audio recordings now start on one clock, so an exported file — mixed or as two tracks — no longer has the two sides drifting apart. Recordings made before this version stay as they were.
  • The daisy stands upright again in the app icon, the menu bar and the widget; the petals still curve while Daisy prepares or stops a recording.
  • The widget reacts more to your voice, and evenly on both sides — it no longer looks as if it sways left and right.
  • With live transcription set to "After the meeting", the recording window says the transcript will appear after the meeting instead of "Listening…".

Daisy 1.0.8.30

build 147 · 9 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.30

  • Pasted Cyrillic text reads correctly. Copying a transcript or summary and pasting it into TextEdit, Word or Pages no longer turns Russian into garbled characters.
  • Export audio can keep the two voices apart. Choose "Two tracks" to get your voice and the others' in separate files, beside each other. "One file" works as before.
  • Export audio is translated in the Russian interface.

Daisy 1.0.8.29

build 146 · 9 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.29

  • A new Daisy mark. The app icon, the menu bar icon and the widget use the refreshed daisy, turned slightly to the left.
  • A livelier widget. While Daisy prepares or stops a recording, the petals curve and spin clockwise, then ease to a stop; while recording they react to your voice as before.
  • No grey at rest. The widget's petals keep their cream colour when Daisy is idle.

Daisy 1.0.8.28

build 145 · 9 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.28

  • Beta downloads keep receiving beta updates. Daisy now enables beta updates automatically for beta installations when you have not chosen a channel yourself. Your choice in About is always kept.

Daisy 1.0.8.27

build 144 · 8 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.27

  • Onboarding asks how to process meetings. A new step lets you pick Economy, Balanced or Maximum — what each does to the live transcript, speakers and transcript refinement is spelled out — and whether to process meetings later, on a charger. You can change it anytime in Settings → General.

Daisy 1.0.8.26

build 143 · 8 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.26

  • Kimi summaries work again. Kimi now rejects a custom temperature on every current model; Daisy no longer sends one, uses the current token parameter, and keeps K3's reasoning short.
  • Current models in Summary settings. Claude Sonnet 5.5 (recommended), Opus 5.5, Fable 5.1 and Haiku 5.5; OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6 Luna; Gemma 4 for Ollama and LM Studio. Older models stay in the list. If you used Claude Sonnet 5, Opus 5 or Fable 5, you're moved to its successor at the same or a lower price.
  • Token costs match today's price lists, including the lower GPT-5.6 prices and Claude Sonnet 5 staying at $2/$10.

Daisy 1.0.8.25

build 142 · 8 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.25

  • Switching a processing plan asks first. Settings → General lists exactly what the plan would change — the live transcript, speakers, screenshots, charger processing — before it changes anything, so a stray click no longer wipes settings you tuned by hand.
  • Your own settings are named. When none of the plans matches what you've set, it says so above the plans.

Daisy 1.0.8.24

build 141 · 7 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.24

  • Long meetings get their summary. Cloud summaries (Anthropic, OpenAI, Kimi, Gemini) now stream, so a two-hour meeting no longer times out and is not billed twice for a retry.
  • A missing summary says why. If the summary didn't come — Apple Intelligence switched off, a language it doesn't write yet, a provider error — you get a notice with a link to Summary settings, and the meeting keeps a note with Try again.
  • Processing plans. Settings → General has a simple choice between lighter and fuller processing, and meetings can wait to be processed until the Mac is on a charger. A meeting processed later now gets everything a normal one does: corrected names and terms, speaker-name suggestions, text from the screen and your marked moments in the summary.
  • Summary progress shows while the summary is being written; long meetings show the summary first and correct the transcript after.
  • Gemini is a new summary provider.
  • Notes have a default project, like meetings.
  • The keyboard layout fix has one switch, off by default; its shortcut leaves real words alone and Fn no longer triggers it.
  • MCP connections without Node.js. Claude and Codex connect through a built-in bridge; Claude Code connects in one click.
  • Send logs attaches the report in Apple Mail; with another mail app it saves the report and opens a filled-in message.
  • Audio settings no longer list Daisy's own capture device among microphones and outputs.
  • The Russian interface uses «ты».

Daisy 1.0.8.23

build 140 · 6 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.23

  • The tabs of Settings and Dictation are in the middle of the toolbar, with Dictation's buttons to their right. In 1.0.8.22 they had moved to the sidebar's side, and in Settings they were hidden behind «»».

Daisy 1.0.8.22

build 139 · 6 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.22

  • A fresh install opens. Since 1.0.8.18 the very first launch on a Mac that had never run Daisy stopped while seeding the Private / Work / Calls projects. Existing installs were not affected.
  • The tabs in Dictation sit in the middle, with the page's buttons to their right. In 1.0.8.21 they had moved beside the sidebar button.

Daisy 1.0.8.21

build 138 · 6 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.21

  • The tabs in Dictation sit in the middle again, with the page's buttons to their right.

Daisy 1.0.8.20

build 137 · 4 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.20

  • The tabs of Settings and Dictation stay on their own pages. They no longer follow you into the Library's toolbar.
  • Esc cancels a rename in the Library list, leaving the title as it was.
  • Sections in Settings light up under the pointer, like the sections of a recording.

Daisy 1.0.8.19

build 136 · 3 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.19

  • A meeting knows its project. The summary of a meeting in a project now reads the project's notes and the summaries of its last few meetings — and of meetings with the same tag — so it can tell who is who and which thread the meeting continues. Notes and the switch are in Settings → Projects, behind the link icon of a project.
  • Meetings name themselves. After the summary, "Meeting 2026-10-03 14:20" becomes a short title of what it was about. A title from your calendar, or one you typed, is never changed.
  • Rename in the list. Right-click a recording in the Library → Rename, and type over its title in place.
  • Transcription shows how far it is. An imported file now has a percentage in its row and a progress bar on its page, instead of "3 of 3 min" from the first second.
  • Codex is found again after the ChatGPT app moved its helper inside the bundle.
  • Settings no longer quit when their tabs were put back into the toolbar twice.
  • The import window is the active one after a drop from Finder, so its Model and Language menus are readable.
  • Sections in Settings open by a click anywhere on their row, not only on the arrow.

Daisy 1.0.8.18

build 135 · 1 Oct 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.18

  • Next steps go where you are writing. In a meeting's summary, "Insert into Mail" (or whatever app you were in) puts one step, or all of them, at the cursor of the app you used before Daisy — ⌘⇧V for the follow-up.
  • Send a Step. Each next step on its own — to Notion, or to any destination in Connections, with who, by when and the lines it came from. A project can name its trackers (GitHub, Linear, Jira) in Settings → Projects, and a step opens there as a new issue, filled in.
  • Mail the recap. The envelope in the summary's header writes to the meeting's attendees: the decisions and next steps, with who and by when.
  • Share Quote… Select lines in a transcript and right-click: the quote with its time and speaker, and the same stretch of the recording as audio if you want it.
  • Questions carried from iPhone. A question you set aside for the next meeting on the phone shows at the top of that meeting's prep as "Open from last time".
  • The compact menu bar opens under its icon — it is a real menu now.
  • Dictation writes "ё" again instead of dropping the word's middle.
  • Settings → Transcription no longer asks you to download a model that is already there.
  • Calls in Bluetooth headphones: when the other side is quiet at the start of a call, Daisy keeps listening the usual way instead of switching to one that can stay silent with Bluetooth, and comes back if it did switch and heard nothing.

Daisy 1.0.8.17

build 134 · 29 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.17

  • "Update" does what it says. The button in the sidebar now installs an update that has finished downloading. While Daisy is still downloading one, the button and the menu say so — "Downloading 1.0.8.17…" — instead of doing nothing.

Daisy 1.0.8.16

build 133 · 29 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.16

  • A countdown to your next meeting in the menu bar. With the next meeting shown in the menu bar, it now reads how long is left — "Q3 Review in 3h 5m" — ticking over on the minute, and "now" as it starts. While you record, the menu bar shows the icon only.
  • Daisy's announcements on Telegram are linked from About when the app is in Russian.

Daisy 1.0.8.15

build 132 · 28 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.15

  • Next steps from your iPhone stay put. Steps you sent to Calendar, Mail or Reminders on the phone keep their marks when your Mac edits or rewrites that summary.
  • Voices your iPhone told apart are kept. The Mac no longer re-splits a recording the phone already listened to.
  • Dictation's tabs use the same toolbar control as Settings, so they don't disappear in a narrow window.
  • A smoother start when Screenshot notes are on: the first look at your screenshots folder no longer holds up the app.

Daisy 1.0.8.14

build 131 · 26 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.14

  • Settings tabs never disappear. In a narrow window all six — Connections included — fold into a menu in the toolbar instead of vanishing behind «>>».
  • Names you give voices on your iPhone carry over when your Mac transcribes that recording again.
  • A tidier Library toolbar: no stray divider, and a round More button.
  • Stop & save and Stop & discard sit evenly spaced under the recording button.

Daisy 1.0.8.13

build 130 · 25 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.13

  • Your vocabulary stays on this Mac even when iCloud is unavailable, and words added on your iPhone arrive in the right order.
  • Sync with your iPhone no longer loses its first pass after Daisy starts or comes back to the front.

Daisy 1.0.8.12

build 129 · 24 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.12

  • Your vocabulary is on your iPhone too. Words and corrections from Dictation → Vocabulary sync through iCloud with Daisy for iPhone, both ways, and fix the phone's transcripts the same way they fix the Mac's.

Daisy 1.0.8.11

build 128 · 24 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.11

  • Bluetooth headphones no longer silence the other side. On macOS 14.4 and later Daisy records system audio a new way that works in call mode too. It asks once for the System Audio Recording permission, on its own screen and not in the middle of a call; if that capture ever stays silent, the recording switches back to the old way on the spot.
  • Fewer gaps in the other side's speech. Audible stretches the final transcript missed are read again.
  • A recording cut short by the next one gets its final transcript and summary, in the same recording. Holding the dictation key right after a meeting no longer interrupts the meeting at all.
  • Echo from the speakers is cut out of your own lines, and switching microphones mid-recording no longer shifts what you say after it.
  • The "can't hear the other side" warning goes away by itself as soon as the sound is back.
  • Audio diagnostics during a recording show the recording's own levels and devices, including headphones connected or removed mid-recording. Permissions have a System Audio Recording row.
  • Install a downloaded update from the menu: "Check for Updates" becomes "Install Daisy … and Restart".
  • The widget is ready for the next recording the moment you press Stop, its petals follow your voice more visibly, and its resting centre is white. The menu-bar icon is a little larger. Headings use a rounded font.
  • Voice Memos import has moved to Daisy for iPhone. The Mac no longer scans the Voice Memos folder.

Daisy 1.0.8.10

build 127 · 24 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.10

  • Dictate right after a meeting. Holding the dictation key while the last meeting is still being finished no longer cancels its final transcript and summary — the dictation runs alongside and pastes in seconds.
  • Echo from the speakers is cut out of your own lines. Without headphones, the other side's words picked up by your microphone no longer end up in your line of the transcript; your own words stay.
  • Your lines stay in step with the other side. Switching microphones mid-recording (say, taking off Bluetooth headphones) no longer shifts everything you say after it a few seconds early.
  • Fewer gaps in the other side's speech. Speech the final pass dropped is re-read without your vocabulary hints, which were the cause on long stretches.
  • Audio diagnostics follow your devices during a recording and name the microphone the recording is actually using.
  • Install the downloaded update from the menu. Once an update is ready, "Check for Updates" becomes "Install Daisy … and Restart".

Daisy 1.0.8.9

build 126 · 24 Sept 2026

What's new in 1.0.8.9

  • Audio diagnostics during a recording show what the recording hears. The microphone and other-side meters used to read "silence" while a recording ran, which looked like a dead microphone; they now show the recording's own levels.
  • A recording cut short by the next one gets its final transcript and summary. Starting a new recording right after Stop used to leave the previous one with its draft text and no summary; Daisy now finishes it in the background, in the same recording.
