Every release, what changed, and what it means if you are using the app. Releases are published on the public releases repository and the app checks for them at launch and every six hours.

0.1.6

The release that put a Mac download on the site. Macs with an Apple chip now have a file to download, alongside the Windows installer.

A download for Macs with an Apple chip. Apple has not certified it, so macOS stops you the first time you open it, and the download page shows the two ways past that.
Settings now carries a small card about Quickword Pro on the free plan.
Android test version updated. It is still an early version you install by hand, and it is not on the Play Store.

Built on Handy by CJ Pais, MIT.

0.1.5

This is the first version worth installing. It is Handy, the app Quickword is built on, renamed and rebranded, with its own updates, the hold-to-talk and hands-free settings, and the Formula Won Labs mark.

Hold your shortcut, speak, let go, and the cleaned text lands where your cursor was. That is the whole of it, and it works without an account.
Syncing across your devices, under Settings, Advanced, Quickword Pro sync. It is off by default and the app does everything on your own computer until you turn it on.
Updates come from Quickword's own signed releases rather than from the project it is built on.
The Quickword icon and a yellow accent replace the inherited pink artwork throughout the app, the tray and the installer.
The program file is now Quickword.exe. It previously showed up in Task Manager as handy.exe, which was confusing on a machine running both.
The portable install path now falls back to Quickword's public releases page rather than to the upstream project's downloads.
Hold to talk and Hands-free are separate rows in Settings. Double-tap the hold-to-talk key to start hands-free, and Reset restores the Quickword defaults (Ctrl+Shift, Ctrl+Shift+Z).
The About screen reads Quickword by Formula Won Labs, the wordmark carries the company byline under it, and the installer names Formula Won Labs as the publisher.

0.1.0 to 0.1.4

0.1.0 through 0.1.4 were the builds published while the release pipeline, the update feed, the icon and the signing keys were being set up. They are on the releases page and there is nothing in them that the current release does not do better.
