Language
Hyprcore supports the locale of your transcript and the locale of the UI separately:- UI language. The language Hyprcore’s interface is in. Auto-detected from your macOS locale by default. Change in Settings → General → UI language.
- Transcript language. Set per-model. Whisper models support 90+ languages and you can pick the default in Settings → Models → Speech model → Language. Parakeet V3 auto-detects, so there’s nothing to set.
Appearance
- Theme. Light, Dark, or System (follow macOS).
- Editor font. Choose a font for the page editor. Sans-serif by default; switch to serif for a more “document” feel.
- Compact mode. Tighter spacing in the sidebar—useful on smaller screens.
Startup behavior
- Launch on login. Hyprcore starts when you log into macOS.
- Start hidden. Don’t show the main window on launch—only the tray icon. Useful if you mostly use Hyprcore via shortcuts.
- Don’t show tray icon. Hides the menu bar icon entirely. Pair with
--start-hiddenfor a minimal footprint.
System tray
- Tray click action. What happens when you click the tray icon: open main window, toggle dictation, or open a quick menu.
- Show recording badge. Color the tray icon while recording so you can see at a glance.
Notifications
- Native notifications on transcription complete. Get a system notification when a long meeting finishes processing.
- Sound on start/stop. Play a short tone when dictation/meeting starts and stops. Useful as a confirmation when you’re using shortcuts and can’t see the screen.
