Create Your Own Session Types (v3.13)

Describe a kind of meeting in plain words, and Hedy sets up a session type built for it.
  • What you get:
    a name and icon, an outline for your detailed notes, and quick prompts that fit the meeting. Your description also shapes the summary and how chat answers.
  • How to create one:
    Settings → Personalization → Custom session types, or straight from the session picker when you start a session. Hedy shows a preview you can adjust before saving.
  • Example:
    "Weekly 1:1s with my direct reports. I want to track commitments, blockers and how each person is doing."
  • Also works for imports:
    pick your custom type when you import audio, video or a transcript.
  • Good to know:
    creating custom session types needs Pro.
Sessions captured with the Whisper speech engine now get speaker labels, worked out on your device after the session ends.
  • Imports too:
    audio and video files you import with Whisper get speaker labels as well.
  • Nothing to switch on:
    it uses Hedy's Temporary audio cache (Settings → Privacy & System), which is on by default, or your saved session audio.
  • Good to know:
    on Android it needs a 64-bit device. If labels can't be worked out for a session, Hedy says so on the session and keeps the full transcript.
Start a session on your Apple Watch even when your iPhone isn't nearby.
  • The Watch captures the session on its own and sends it to your iPhone when they reconnect.
  • On your iPhone, a card on the dashboard lists Watch sessions waiting to be imported. Import them like any other session, or discard them.
  • The Watch start screen now offers two clear choices: Start on Watch, or Start on iPhone.

Hide What You Don't Use (v3.13)

Keep your pickers and prompt lists down to the options you actually use.
  • Languages and session types:
    choose "Customize list…" at the bottom of the language or session type picker, and untick what you never use. The same lists are in Settings.
  • Quick prompts:
    tap the hide icon on a built-in quick prompt you never use. Bring hidden prompts back from "Show hidden prompts".
  • Hidden options stay hidden on your other devices.
Tap the speaker icon on a chat answer to hear it read aloud.
  • The voice is generated on your device, so nothing is sent anywhere to read it.
  • Works during a live session too, for example while you listen on headphones.
  • Good to know:
    this is a beta, in English only at this time. More languages will be supported soon.

Expandable Sidebar (v3.13)

Widen the sidebar to see your sessions, topics and highlights by name.
  • Click any item to open it. Starred topics come first.
  • Drag the edge to set the width; Hedy remembers it, along with which sections you folded.
  • Session controls fit on one row when the sidebar is wide.
  • Available whenever the Hedy window is wide enough, including on tablets.

See Each Processing Step (v3.13)

While a session finishes, its title now shows the step Hedy is on, such as "Identifying speakers...", and a finished session briefly lights up in your list.
Long sessions on Android now finish their speaker labelling more reliably after you stop, because Hedy stays active in the background until the session is fully processed.
