## Yaps for iPhone and iPad

- Yaps: AI Voice Typing Keyboard is live on the App Store for iPhone and iPad.

## Yaps Plugins & Notes Browsing

- Yaps plugins for ChatGPT Desktop, Claude Code, and Codex - 11 integrations covering dictation, transcription, meeting notes, text-to-speech, translation, SRT generation, auto captions, background removal, audio cleanup, video-to-audio, and Yaps Memory.
- Plugins run against the Yaps engine installed on your own machine, and check that it is genuinely reachable rather than guessing.
- Notes gained Finder-style folder browsing, a flat list view, and adjustable row density.
- Linux builds now publish alongside macOS and Windows on every release.
- Fixed bundled FFmpeg lookup for the media plugins, and recovery of the local Yaps account store.
