Summary

Prepares the v0.7.0 minor release.

Why minor (0.6.2 → 0.7.0): several new, backward-compatible features (custom vocabulary, usage stats, hotkey presets, fixed audio input device, Homebrew distribution) and no breaking changes — per docs/RELEASE.md semver rules, that's a MINOR bump.

Changes since v0.6.2

Files updated

  • scripts/build.shAPP_VERSION default (Info.plist CFBundleVersion / CFBundleShortVersionString)
  • web/layouts/index.html — JSON-LD softwareVersion + hero version badge

Homebrew cask is intentionally not touched here — update-homebrew-cask.yml auto-updates it on release publish.

Release plan after merge

  1. Tag v0.7.0 and push → release.yml builds, signs, notarizes, and drafts the GitHub Release.
  2. Paste the finalized end-user notes into the draft and publish.
  3. Homebrew tap + website auto-update on publish.
Draft end-user release notes (for the GitHub Release page)

VocaMac v0.7.0

Our biggest release since 0.6 — smarter transcription, richer controls, and a usage dashboard, plus a much easier way to install via Homebrew.

✨ Highlights

🐛 Fixes & improvements

📦 Requirements

  • macOS 13 (Ventura) or later; Apple Silicon (M1+), 8 GB RAM minimum
