What’s new
New versions install themselves in the background. When the app tells you it updated, this page is what changed.
2026-06-28
0.0.41
- Calls, recordings, transcripts, and phone lines now stay tied to the WaveKat account that owns them, so shared computers no longer mix people’s histories or settings.
- You can now back up a phone line’s settings to your WaveKat account so it reappears when you sign in on another computer; passwords stay only on each computer and are typed again when needed.
- You can now share recordings with private links and see shared calls marked in history and on each call’s page. When you share, you choose what the recipient sees — caller identity, transcript, audio and downloads, and which side of the call plays by default.
- Once a call has synced to your WaveKat account, its details page has an “Open in platform” button that opens that call on the website.
- You can now put a call on hold and pick it back up — the line stays connected, and the other side hears their own hold music.

0.0.40
- WaveKat Voice now speaks your language. It follows your computer’s language on its own, and you can choose from English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese in both Simplified and Traditional, so Hong Kong and Taiwan are covered too. Pick any language yourself under Settings → Language, or switch back to matching your computer.
- Fixed: the in-app help links (the Automation guide and the SIP setup guide) now open the right page instead of landing on the website’s home page.

0.0.39
- The command line and connected AI assistants can now manage more of your call data, matching what the app already lets you do: mute your microphone during a call, check or clear your saved recordings, review or clear the activity log, and erase your call history.
- The command-line tool’s commands are now organized into clear groups (calls, recordings, logs), so related actions live together. If you’ve written a script against it, see the Automation guide for the updated commands.
- When you install the command-line tool on a Mac and it lands in a folder that isn’t on your PATH, the Automation page now shows the exact line to add to your shell profile so you can run it from any terminal.
2026-06-13
0.0.38
- You can now place and manage calls from the command line, or let an AI assistant do it for you. It’s off until you turn it on in the new Settings → Automation page, and you can switch it off again any time. See “Automation & command line” for what it can do.
- Settings → Automation now finds the AI assistants you already have installed (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and more) and connects them with one click — then just ask the assistant to place a call. (Some assistants, like Claude Desktop, only pick up the new calling ability after you fully quit and reopen them.) The connection keeps itself up to date when the app updates.
- An AI assistant (or the command line) can now see the calls you have in progress and act on them — answer an incoming call, or hang one up — not just the calls it placed itself. It can also look back over your past calls.
- New in Settings → About: turn on Preview updates to get new versions early, before they’re released to everyone. Preview builds may be a little rough; switch it off any time to go back to the regular updates.
2026-06-09
0.0.37
- On Linux, when the app starts automatically at login it now opens quietly in the background instead of popping its window open, the same way it already does on Mac and Windows. Open it any time from the tray icon.
2026-06-08
0.0.35
- When the app updates to a new version, it now points you to what changed: a “What’s new” notice appears, plus links in Settings → About and the Help menu — all open this page.
2026-06-07
0.0.34
- Fixed: a call no longer stays stuck on your screen if your internet connection drops mid-call — it now ends on its own.
0.0.33
- Recorded calls now play a short beep at the start, so everyone on the call knows it’s being recorded.
0.0.32
- On Linux, the app can now start automatically when you log in.
- Clearer explanation of why the app needs access to your microphone.
- More reliable long calls — the app now notices and cleans up a call whose connection has silently died.
2026-06-06
0.0.31
- The app now restarts itself automatically if it runs into a problem in the background, so you stay reachable.
- Added a way to open the app’s log file from Settings → About, to make it easier to send us details when something goes wrong.
2026-06-05
0.0.30
- On Linux, it’s now clearer that the app keeps running in the background, and easier to find how to quit it.
2026-06-04
0.0.29
- A batch of Linux reliability fixes around starting up, updating, and shutting down cleanly.
2026-06-03
0.0.27
- Clearer error when the username or password for a SIP account is wrong, so you can fix it during setup instead of guessing.
2026-06-01
0.0.24
- When an update is ready, choosing Restart now reliably installs it.
2026-05-31
0.0.21
- The app now updates itself. New versions download in the background and install when you restart — no need to come back to the website.
2026-05-30
0.0.18
- Fixed: after you sign out or delete the app, it no longer continues uploading anything to your WaveKat account.
0.0.15
- Your SIP account passwords are now stored more securely on your computer.
- The app now waits for your network to be ready before connecting, instead of failing when you’ve just woken your laptop or reconnected to Wi‑Fi.
2026-05-27
0.0.14
- Added a keypad during calls for entering menu options (for example, “press 1 for sales”).
- You can now mute your microphone during a call.
Earlier
The first releases built the core of the app: placing and answering SIP calls from your laptop, incoming‑call notifications, using more than one SIP account at once, a guided first‑run setup, call history, call recording with playback, and live on‑device transcription. From here on, this page lists what changes in each update.
