Q: Amical keeps randomly popping up in the foreground (stealing focus)
I downloaded the app 2 months ago and really enjoyed using it. However, I've run into a disruptive issue recently: the Amical window randomly pops up and forces itself into the foreground, interrupting my workflow. It happens often enough that I'm considering looking for an alternative. Is this a known bug, or is it intended behavior?

Edited Jul 3, 2026A: Hi ifluso,
Please check the installed version, and if an update is available, pls update it.
If you are on 1.75+ version, this can be checked from within the app - settings -> about (you will see a check for update button)
If you are on a lower version, you can just do this
- press "Win + R"
- paste "%LocalAppData%\Amical\Amical.exe" (do not include the double quotes in the pasted content) - press Enter
- wait a few seconds, amical will open up and you should be on 1.9.3 or a higher version (go to settings > about to check)
alternatively, you can re-download the app from https://amical.ai/download
post installation pls verify that you are on version 1.93 or higher
If post this you are still running into this issue pls drop us a mail at [email protected] or reach out to us via live chat or via discord at https://amical.ai/community
