Pines Voice changelog

1.0.2 2026-10-03

Pines Voice is free. Sign in with Google or with your email to start dictating.
Setup starts with signing in to your Pines Rocks account, in your browser.
The Account page shows who you are signed in as, and lets you change your email or sign out.

Setup is two steps now: choose how you'll dictate, then try it once.
Your account is kept by the Pines Rocks server, so it stays put when you reinstall.

The first release. Dictation into any Mac app by holding the right Option key.
Local engines, Parakeet and whisper.cpp, run offline on Apple silicon. OpenAI, OpenRouter and Groq with your own key.
An optional auto formatter, S1-mini by Superwhisper, that cleans up English transcripts on your Mac.
A dictionary for names and terms, an activity log kept on your Mac, and six themes, New Moon and Full Moon among them.
Accounts, and updates that install themselves.
If you ran a build from before this release, macOS may show Accessibility and Input Monitoring as granted while the app cannot use them. Run "tccutil reset Accessibility rocks.pines.voice" and "tccutil reset ListenEvent rocks.pines.voice" in Terminal, then grant them again.
