Quill Release Notes

Improvements

• Drag the meeting card that appears for a calendar event, a detected call, or a manual start to move it anywhere on screen and remember your preference.
• Form labels in Settings now sit on their own line with consistent spacing above each field.

Bugfixes

• Export Log Files now confirms when the export finishes and shows an error if it fails, instead of appearing to do nothing.
• On macOS, the Export Log Files save dialog now opens attached to the Quill window rather than wherever it was last left, which could be on another display or behind the app.
• Export Log Files now lives in Settings > Troubleshooting

New meeting cue card

• Tells you which meeting you are about to join
• Allows you to select which event to link the call to when you have multiple overlapping
• Allows you to snooze if you aren't quite ready to start yet

Other improvements

• Arc and DingTalk are now recognized for auto-start
• Show and hide the meeting overlay from the Quill tray menu
• Improved tool calling in Quilliam
• Stalled GPUs during Windows transcription is caught in about 30 seconds instead of freezing for up to 8 minutes.
• BYOLLM endpoints (OpenRouter, vLLM, local servers) now consistently use structured output based on model support, cutting "AI couldn't generate notes" failures

New Features

• Microsoft 365 Copilot is now available as a BYOLLM provider, with Microsoft Entra sign-in, Copilot Chat streaming, and an enterprise pin so admins can lock the org to Copilot for supported AI tasks.
• Google Workspace SSO: Google Workspace now works as a first-class SAML 2.0 enterprise connection, with full sign-in, admin enforcement, and rollback support alongside existing OIDC.
• Spaces meeting-association: you can now add a meeting to a Space directly from the meeting header, with a new tag row showing which Spaces a meeting belongs to.

Mobile

• Added a one-time promo modal introducing Quill for mobile, and Android users can now grab the Companion app directly from desktop — previously only the iOS App Store was linked from Mobile Setup.

Fixes & Stability

• Fixed a bug where changing a meeting's linked calendar event (or unlinking it) would silently revert in the UI even though the change had saved.
• Fixed the desktop updater so Windows on ARM (e.g. Snapdragon devices) correctly receives ARM64 builds instead of being stuck on x64 forever.
• Fixed a false-positive lockup in the enterprise settings poll timer that could leave enterprise state stuck without refreshing.
• Raised low-disk warning thresholds (1 GB / 500 MB instead of 500 MB / 100 MB) so you get a heads-up with enough runway to free space before a recording is at risk.
• Legacy Mac App Store users get a guided one-time migration of their existing data when moving to the direct-download build.
• Centralized how external links are opened across the app, with added validation for links in toasts.

Quality of Life

• Slash-menu integrations are now promoted more prominently in the Quilliam assistant, making it easier to discover connected tools.

🎙️ Speaker Labeling

• Explicit, explainable speaker labeling — see exactly who said what, and why Quill made that call.

📱 Mobile

• New one-time promo modal introduces Quill for mobile.
• Mobile setup now offers a direct Android download in step 3.

🏠 Home Redesign

• Home page rebuilt around a focal card for a cleaner, more focused landing experience.
• Refreshed copy throughout the home page for clarity and consistency.

🔔 Smarter Notifications

• Tapping a "notes ready" notification now opens the exact note it's about.
• Notes generated by automations now send that same notification too.

🔌 Integrations & Agents

• Integrations are now promoted right in the Quilliam slash menu, making them easier to discover.
• Share agent output to any MCP-connected app via a new export menu option.
• Registry and custom MCP servers now trigger OAuth sign-in instead of failing outright.
• Chat now runs with subagents on by default.

🖥️ Platform Support

• Windows ARM64 is now officially supported, including native Vulkan-accelerated transcription.

💳 Billing

• Team plan purchases now route correctly through the web team-purchase flow.
• Trial length is now consistently 14 days everywhere (the earlier A/B test has ended).

🐛 Fixes & Stability

• Meeting titles with a colon are no longer incorrectly split and truncated.
• Transcription now respects your organization's chosen transcription setting instead of your personal one.
• Low disk space warnings now appear earlier (at 1 GB / 500 MB) so you have more time to react.
• Fixed a hang in the microphone/camera permission check on some machines.
• Fixed a native crash on Windows during audio capture error handling.

New Features & Improvements

• Cloud transcription setup warnings — Quill now warns you when your cloud transcription configuration is incomplete, so misconfigurations surface early instead of failing silently.
• New Slack tools — Added get_user and list_users tools for Slack, giving automations and extensions richer access to workspace directory information.
• Run-from-note automations in the share menu — Automations that run from a note now consistently appear in the note's share menu.

Windows

• Audio capture reliability — Fixed corrupted WASAPI audio packet timestamps at the capture source and added bounds checking during silence insertion, preventing audio glitches and crashes during recording.

Bug Fixes

• Billing — Fixed an issue that incorrectly froze entitlements for subscribers on legacy plans.
• Meetings — Soft-deleted and hidden meetings no longer leak into projects and contacts.
• Broken-transcript banner — Corrected dark-mode colors on the broken-transcript banner.
• Attio integration — Partial failures when writing notes to multiple parents are now reported instead of being silently treated as full successes.
• Org extensions — Over-limit extension uploads now surface a clear "over limit" message rather than a confusing invalid-response error.
• Extensions — Only tools for connected extensions are described now, rather than every bundled built-in; cursor pagination rejects invalid negative indices and surfaces user-list truncation correctly.
• macOS 26 diarization crash — Upgraded the ONNX runtime to resolve a diarization crash on macOS 26.
• Startup crashes — Fixed a startup crash caused by bundling behavior in automations, and hardened boot-time process spawning and secure-storage initialization to eliminate startup race conditions.

MCP & Automations

• Fixed registry and custom MCP servers failing outright when they required authentication — they now correctly trigger the OAuth flow instead
• Added one-click setup for connecting Codex as an MCP server
• Improvements in automations (New update for better automation UI to be released soon)

Recording

• Each capture now records which screen/window surface it started from, improving diagnostics for capture and calendar-link issues

Performance & Stability

• Reduced background analytics traffic

Audio & Transcription

• Microphone capture now runs through Quill's native audio engine, giving more reliable device handling and lower-overhead recording.
• Refreshed the native audio modules on all supported platforms.

Languages

• New installs now seed the default meeting language from your operating system's locale, so you no longer have to change it manually if you work in a language other than English.

Stability

• Fixed a crash that could occur when the on-device ONNX runtime failed to load. Quill now degrades gracefully and keeps working instead of shutting down.

Sharing

• Fixed an issue where re-sharing a note that was already registered could surface as an error instead of being recovered automatically.
• Improved how sharing errors are classified, so genuine failures are reported accurately and transient ones are handled quietly.

Bring Your Own LLM

• Hardened Azure OpenAI configuration handling for BYOLLM setups, reducing setup failures with custom endpoints.

Enterprise

• First-device enrollment for the Quill Enterprise encrypted key vault is now available in production, controlled by per-organization policy.

Under the Hood

• Backend services now pass through the real status from upstream calls instead of collapsing everything into a generic server error, so error messages you see in the app are more specific and actionable.

v2.6.8 Release Notes

✨ New Features

• Added org-managed cloud transcription, allowing organizations to enable cloud transcription independently of BYOLLM configuration
• Introduced Enterprise managed-identity Settings lockdown for centrally managed accounts
• Added native system-audio permission probe on macOS to better detect and prompt for audio capture permissions

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed a crash on the Mobile App page and repaired a vault subprocess resource-usage handler
• Fixed diarization-connect-contact payload issue affecting the Label-speakers flow, with added regression coverage
• Quilliam (AI agent) now notifies users when it pauses due to reaching its tool-call budget, instead of stopping silently
• Fixed stranded meetings recovery so audio recovered from disk is never truncated
• Fixed a production session re-login loop related to Chromium/Quill secure storage handling

🛠️ Stability & Reliability

• Hardened concurrency handling across the app to prevent rare async deadlocks ("wedges")
