## 1.0.58

### Formatting styles

* Choose a formatting style for each mode: **Casual**, **Semi-Casual**, **Formal**, or **Custom**
* Casual keeps your voice relaxed — slang preserved, no periods, minimal corrections
* Semi-Casual cleans up errors while keeping contractions and natural tone
* Formal expands contractions, applies full grammar, and polishes for professional use

### Smart notes

* Organize notes into **sections** — AI auto-classifies new notes into the right section
* Create, rename, and reorder sections from the new section management UI
* Filter notes by section with the section filter bar
* Set **reminders** on notes with automatic macOS notification scheduling
* Link notes to **calendar events**
* **Duplicate detection** warns before saving similar content

### Voice-activated notes

* New **"note"** voice command — say "note buy groceries" to capture a note instantly
* Notes captured by voice are auto-organized into sections by AI

### Fixed: High memory usage

* The local transcription model is now released from memory after each dictation
