Changelog — OfferShark

1.0.13 2026-10-21

Sign in from the desktop app through your browser, including with a Google account.
Use the same OfferShark account on the web and in the desktop app.
Choose monthly, quarterly, or yearly access with a one-time payment or subscription.
Improved Windows app closing and payment return handling.

When you're out of sessions, OfferShark now says so and opens Account so you can top up, instead of showing a raw error. A suspended account gets a clear message too.
Keyboard shortcuts (⌘⇧H / A / S / X) only work while you're listening, so they no longer take over the same keys in VS Code and other apps. ⌘, opens Settings only when OfferShark is focused.
Changing your password keeps you signed in on this device, and signing out now ends the session on the server too.

Live transcription now recovers on its own from network drops, even deep into a long interview. If it can't reconnect, listening stops and your session is paused, so you're never charged for time without transcription.
Invisibility can only be turned off in Settings → Privacy & Stealth. The ⌘⇧P shortcut is gone, so pressing it in VS Code or other apps can no longer reveal the overlay by accident.

On Windows this update comes straight from 1.0.8 and also includes the changes in 1.0.9.

"What's new" in Settings → About opens this changelog. After an update, the first launch tells you which version you're now on.
You'll be notified when a newer version is available (at most once a day), with links to see what's new or download it.

The Terms window is wider, so everything fits without scrolling.
The language setting now explains what it changes (the app and AI answers) and which languages interviews can be transcribed in.

Role settings now let you pick a seniority level and add Accounting, Consulting and Marketing roles. Both places where you set your role work the same way, and the status bar shows role · level.
The welcome screen stays opaque until you start a session.

Role settings now save reliably, and clicking a role's hint text no longer selects the first role by mistake.

On macOS this update comes straight from 1.0.6 and also includes the changes in 1.0.7.

Your free trial now picks up where it left off after quitting or restarting, and doesn't count down while the app is closed.
Fixed the window not restoring after being minimized from Settings.

The Windows installer is now digitally signed, so you won't see the "unknown publisher" warning.

Your balance now refreshes when you return to the app after paying, even if the browser didn't redirect you back.

No more Dock/taskbar icon, so it stays hidden when you share your screen. Use the menu bar (or system tray on Windows) icon to show/hide the window, open Settings, or quit.
Session history now has its own page in Settings, and you can delete sessions.

Screenshot-only sessions now use the first line of the answer as their history title.
Fixed Settings and Quit not responding on the welcome screen before signing in.

"Record my answers" (on by default): your own voice is transcribed too, with instant feedback after each answer. Interviewer audio picked up by your mic is filtered out.
An "End session" button at the bottom wraps up the session and settles usage before you leave.
Added entry points for session history and the help guide. Past sessions open read-only.

Redesigned welcome screen with a two-column layout. The title bar is down to 4 buttons, with theme and width moved into Settings, and the window resizes for Settings, then restores.
A longer transparency slider that snaps in 5% steps, plus fixes for sliders and toggles in light theme.
Appearance now follows your system theme by default.

Fixed the 5-minute trial expiring immediately.
The microphone permission prompt now appears only once per launch.
Removed non-functional options from Settings and updated the Privacy page to describe what actually happens with your data.
