Good Functionality, but Missing several essential features

The app does what it promises, but the lack of a few basic features makes it hard for me to rate it higher than 3 stars.

- Automatically launch Letterly when Windows starts.
- Start minimized or hidden in the system tray.
- Ability to select a specific microphone. If I have multiple microphones connected to my computer, I should be able to choose which one Letterly uses instead of always relying on the Windows default.

It's unusual nowadays for a productivity application to require users to launch it manually after every reboot and close its window every time. Likewise, the inability to select a specific microphone is inconvenient for anyone who uses multiple audio devices.

The interface also feels a bit unusual. I honestly found it difficult to locate the settings, and I couldn't figure out where these options are configured, or if they even exist. A more intuitive and conventional settings layout would make the app much easier to use.

These are standard features that would make the app feel much more polished and convenient. If they are added in a future update, I'd be happy to increase my rating.

Thank you for the detailed feedback!
The system tray icon is already available in the Windows app. We’ve shared your suggestion about launching Letterly automatically with Windows without opening the main app window too! :)
Your feedback about microphone selection - noted!
We released Dictation for Windows quite recently, so some smaller details may still need polishing.
We hope to bring more of these improvements in future updates and make the Windows experience even more convenient 💜
