New Features

- Screen Reader Accessibility for Main Transcript: Converted transcript display to allow screen readers to navigate conversation turns individually with arrow keys instead of reading the entire history as one block.

- Improved tab navigation in about, license, update and usage limit dialogs.

- Added auto-scroll to ensure transcript view stays scrolled to the latest content.

- Added support for Tagalog language. We recommend typed input for this language.

- Configurable Narration Language: Both video and website narration services now support configurable output languages (Vietnamese, Tagalog, English).

- Converted microphone input sensitivity to Voice Activity Detection slider for better handling of microphone noise.

- Added handling to show Usage Limit with plan tier information when limits are reached.

Bug Fixes

- Added fix for occasional NVDA "glitch noise" when microphone input is used.

- Enabled tab key to change focus in main text input box.

- Microphone Initialization Failure Handling: Added error handling for cases where no microphone is available.

- Fixed main window stealing focus after Quick Input dialog closes by capturing and restoring the previous foreground window.

- Fixed tab order to match visual top-to-bottom layout (transcript area → text input → send button → microphone toggle → settings → stop button)
