Snappilot v0.1.7

New in this release:

🎥 Meeting Mode (on-device AI)

  • Record a Google Meet / Zoom call and get an automatic transcript, summary, action items, and key points — all processed on your Mac, nothing uploaded.
  • Speakers split into You vs Participants automatically (your mic vs the call audio).
  • Experimental: reads Google Meet live captions for each participant's real name (needs Accessibility + captions on). Rename any speaker from the notes window.
  • Export notes to Markdown; a .md is saved next to the recording.

⏸ Pause / Resume recording — freeze and continue a recording; the paused span is stitched out cleanly.

🎙 Microphone noise cancellation — voice-processed mic (noise suppression + echo cancellation) while recording.

📚 Collections — group captures with drag-and-drop; create, rename, delete.

📜 Scrolling Capture — capture a long page into one tall stitched image (auto-scroll; needs Accessibility).

✨ UI — Quick Capture is now a single scrollable row with the shortcut on top; Record Meeting added to the menu bar.
