Two stable releases in one week. We shipped v1.0.4 and v1.0.5 back-to-back, bringing a redesigned calendar, backlink mentions, undo delete, and a bunch of quality-of-life improvements.
Calendar Redesign
The calendar got a complete overhaul. There's now a full calendar interface with a week view, event popovers, and improved navigation controls. It's a much better way to see your week at a glance and jump into upcoming sessions.
We also added the ability to unignore calendar events directly from the sidebar timeline via context menu. If you previously dismissed an event and changed your mind, you can bring it back without digging through settings.
Backlink Mentions
You can now mention notes, people, and companies inline using backlink mentions. Each mention displays a type badge so you can tell at a glance whether you're linking to a person, a company, or another note. This is foundational for building a connected knowledge graph across your sessions.
Undo Delete
Accidentally deleting a note is no longer a disaster. Deleted notes now show a dissolving animation with a 5-second countdown timer. Hover to pause the countdown and reveal a "Restore" button, or press Cmd+Z to instantly restore. It's a small safety net that makes a big difference.
Hold-to-Quit
We redesigned the Cmd+Q behavior, inspired by Chrome. Instead of immediately hiding the app, you now hold Cmd+Q to quit with a visual overlay showing the progress. This replaces the previous Cmd+Shift+Q shortcut entirely and prevents accidental quits.
In-Meeting Reminder
There's a new experimental notification that lets you know when another app has been using your microphone for 3+ minutes while Hyprnote isn't listening. If you forgot to start recording, this nudge has your back. It's opt-in in the lab settings and still early, but we think it'll be useful.
Performance and Stability
Under the hood, we fixed memory leaks from actor subscriptions and timer accumulation, and resolved high CPU usage caused by a MutationObserver watching the entire document tree. We also upgraded to Tauri 2.10.1 and updated several core dependencies including cpal 0.17 for audio handling.
Other Improvements
- Cmd+Shift+N hotkey to create a new note and start listening in one action
- Recently opened notes now appear in the Open Note dialog (Cmd+O) for quick access
- Manual timezone override in Settings for sidebar timeline display
- Fallback support for local AI models without tool calling (e.g., Gemma via LM Studio)
- Fix for "invalid Refresh Token: Already Used" authentication error
- Fix for opening a note now switching to an existing tab instead of creating a duplicate
What's Next
We're heads down on the next round of features. If you're on the nightly channel, you'll see improvements landing daily. If you're on stable, v1.0.5 is available now.
As always, you can download the latest version from our changelog or let the app auto-update.
