Whispering v3.4.0

Whispering v3.4.0 Release Notes

I am excited to announce the release of Whispering v3.4.0. I posted it a few weeks ago on Reddit while it was under review in the Chrome Web store, and was blown away by the response. Since then, it has been approved as a Chrome Extension!

This update accounts for several minor tweaks—mainly, multilingual support and some UI overhauls to the settings page.

Chrome Extension

You no longer need to install the .zip file like in previous releases.

Instead, you can install it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/whispering/oilbfihknpdbpfkcncojikmooipnlglo

Desktop

To get started, download the corresponding Whispering installation file and follow the installation instructions.

Windows

1. Download the installation package ending in .msi.
2. Double click the downloaded file to install it.
3. If prompted as unsafe, you can click on More Info -> Run Anyway to proceed with the installation.
4. Ready to use!

MacOS

1. Download the corresponding .dmg installation package.
2. Double click the downloaded file to install it.
3. Ready to use!

Troubleshooting

• "Whispering" can’t be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
• Click the Cancel button, then go to the Settings -> Privacy and Security page, click the Still Open button, and then click the Open button in the pop-up window. Or, you can try right clicking the app in Finder and clicking Open. After that, there will be no more pop-up warnings when opening. 🎉

Conclusion
