| Date | Version | What changed |
|---|---|---|
| New: Aug 14, 2026 | v3.25.0 | There are now Privacy and Terms of Use pages, linked at the bottom of every screen, so you can see exactly what the tool keeps, who processes it, and what happens when you delete a job. |
| Improved: Aug 14, 2026 | v3.25.0 | The sign-in screen is cleaner and says what actually happens: ASU handles the sign-in, so we never see your password. Error messages no longer mention sign-in methods that were removed. |
| New: Aug 10, 2026 | v3.23.0 | Translate into Polish, Hebrew, and Arabic too, with Hebrew and Arabic laid out right to left the way they should read. |
| New: Aug 10, 2026 | v3.23.0 | When you edit a transcript, you now see how much of it you changed from the AI version, so you can tell at a glance how well the tool did on that file. |
| Improved: Aug 10, 2026 | v3.23.0 | Translated transcripts now say plainly that they were produced by AI and should be checked, and the note stays on the page when you export it. |
| New: Aug 5, 2026 | v3.22.0 | Translate your transcript into Spanish, French, Mandarin, German, or Hindi with one click, then edit, export, and generate accessible HTML in that language just like in English. |
| Improved: Aug 5, 2026 | v3.21.0 | Transcription got faster: long recordings now need half as many AI calls, so your transcript is ready sooner. |
| New: Jul 14, 2026 | v3.20.0 | A new Credits page naming the people who built the tool, plus this What's New page so you can see updates at a glance. |
| Improved: Jul 8, 2026 | v3.19.4 | We tidied up the upload screen so uploading a file and importing from MediaPlus are both clearer now. |
| Fixed: Jul 8, 2026 | v3.19.3 | Fixed a login hiccup that occasionally bounced people back to the sign-in screen. |
| New: Jul 7, 2026 | v3.19.0 | Import from MediaPlus: paste an ASU MediaPlus transcript link and we'll bring it in directly, so you skip re-uploading and re-transcribing. |
| New: Jul 7, 2026 | v3.18.0 | Clearer errors with one-click retry: when a job fails you'll see a plain-language reason and a “Try again” button. |
| New: Jul 7, 2026 | v3.17.0 | Search and filter your history: find past jobs by name and narrow to today, this week, or this month. |
| Fixed: Jul 7, 2026 | v3.16.2 | Silent recordings now tell you “no speech detected” instead of returning an invented transcript. |
| Improved: Jul 3, 2026 | v3.15.0 | Changed approach·We rebuilt how transcripts are broken into paragraphs. The old way guessed where to split and sometimes cut a word in half, whereas the new way forms clean paragraphs while keeping every word intact. |
| Improved: Jul 2, 2026 | v3.11.4 | Accessibility pass on the tool itself, so job cards, dialogs, and the HTML preview are now fully keyboard and screen-reader operable. |
| Improved: Jul 2, 2026 | v3.10.11 | A wave of polish: the tool now uses the full screen width, live updates are smoother, picking a job no longer reshuffles your list, and deleting a job asks you to confirm first. |
| New: Jul 1, 2026 | v3.4.0 | Changed approach·We changed how your history is stored. It used to live in temporary storage that expired after a while, whereas now it's saved durably, so your transcripts and job history stick around for the long term. |
| Fixed: Jun 4, 2026 | v3.3.3 | Longer recordings now reliably come back neatly formatted, instead of occasionally falling back to raw text. |
| New: Jun 4, 2026 | v3.3.0 | New “Copy for Canvas” button, so you can paste your accessible transcript straight into a Canvas page and keep its formatting. |
| Fixed: Apr 9, 2026 | v3.2.1 | Large files (170MB and up) now upload and transcribe reliably. |
| New: Mar 31, 2026 | v3.1.0 | Every transcript now comes as a ready-to-use, WCAG-accessible web page, generated automatically with a meaningful title. |
| New: Mar 28, 2026 | v3.0.0 | Accounts and job history arrive, so you can sign in, upload several files at once, and see all your past transcripts in one place, and re-uploading the same file returns instantly. |
| New: Dec 20, 2025 | v2.2.0 | Sign in with your ASU account (or Google), so your transcripts are now tied to you. |
| New: Dec 10, 2025 | v2.1.0 | The web app arrives, so you can upload and manage your transcriptions right from the browser. |
