Keyboard fixed on iOS 26
The context chips were blurry and the mic button did nothing on iOS 26. Both work now.
- Fixed
Pausing no longer stops your recording
A pause now holds your recording. Only the stop button ends it.
- New
Choose how the recording widget looks
Pick Capsule, Edge Rail or Notch, drag it anywhere, and switch context from the widget while you talk.
- New
Setup that adapts to you
Tell us what you do and setup builds your first contexts. You can try dictation before choosing a plan.
- New
One-tap dictation in the keyboard
Tap the mic, speak, tap Insert. Every step now says what to do next, and you land back in your text.
- New
Dictate without a connection
On-device dictation downloads your language once, then keeps working offline, with clear prompts when a language is missing.
- New
Plain transcription by default
New installs start with accurate, unedited transcription. AI polish is one switch away.

First and last words are no longer clipped
Contextli now catches the start of your sentence and waits until you actually stop speaking before it ends the recording.
- New
Say "label it" to tag a note
Finish a note with "label it Claude" or "give this the label X" in plain wording. An Undo toast lets you take it back.
- Fixed
Clear messages instead of silence
A short empty recording says "No speech detected", and a dead microphone now tells you so.

Older notes and labels stay put after each dictation
Dictating no longer drops earlier notes or their labels.

Out of credits? It now tells you
Dictation used to just stop. Now a message says why and what to do.

No console windows flashing after dictation
The brief black window that appeared after each dictation is gone.

Sign-in says what is happening
Signed out? Contextli now says so. Google sign-in no longer flashes a false error while it is still working.
- Fixed
Floating bubble and offline recordings
The bubble now shows up after Android restarts the app, and a recording made offline is kept until it uploads.
- New
Connect Claude Code
Claude Code is now a one-click option on the Integrations page.

Starts with your computer
Contextli opens at login so your hotkey works right away. You can turn it off in Settings.
- Fixed
No more frozen pastes or lost endings
A slow AI reply no longer holds up your paste. The last words of a recording are kept, and hotkeys that went dead work again.

Screenshots now reach the AI
Screenshot context was being captured but not sent. It is sent now.
