New in 1.2.3 • Color themes: pick from Pearl, Midnight, High Contrast, Ember, or Paper (a light theme) in Settings. Every theme is tested to keep captions easy to read. • Easier-to-read history: earlier lines in the transcript were too faint on some screens. They now keep strong contrast in every theme. • The Privacy and Support links now go to eartoeye.com.

• Transcripts are saved more safely. If the app is interrupted while filing a session under Earlier, no words are lost and none show up twice. • General reliability improvements.

• Improved live captioning reliability, including a fix for missing words at the start of a session. • Improved caption and transcript layouts in landscape and smaller windows, especially with larger text. • Fixed rotation issues and made upside-down reading more consistent when portrait orientation is locked. • Clarified on-screen guidance.

Sharper transcription — and transcripts that correct themselves. • On iOS 26, Ear to Eye can now use Apple's on-device conversational speech model, which follows natural back-and-forth speech better than before. The model downloads in the background the first time you listen, and Ear to Eye starts using it after that. Until then, and on earlier versions of iOS, transcription works exactly as it did. • Transcripts now correct themselves. When recognition improves on something you have already read — a name, a number, a piece of punctuation — the saved transcript quietly updates to match. The word on screen is never interrupted, and nothing you have already read is replayed. • Listening starts capturing the moment you tap Listen, so the opening words of a conversation are no longer lost while things get going. • Long sessions stay smooth. The transcript no longer slows down as it grows.

Your transcripts now stay put. Close Ear to Eye and come back — the conversation is still there, right where you left it. Older days file themselves under Transcript → Earlier, so a week of talks stays organized instead of piling into one long page. • Transcripts survive closing the app • Earlier — past conversations filed by date, with a preview and word count • Share any saved transcript as a PDF, or delete it for good • "Start new transcript" files the current one away instead of erasing it • Stop lands on the first tap, every time • Saved transcripts stay on this device — never uploaded, not even to iCloud backups
