What's New in UnivNote

1.136

November 15, 2026

- You can now use AI right in the app with your own AI API key (Settings › Use AI API). Choose from 23 services, including Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok (as well as Ollama or LM Studio running on a computer on the same Wi-Fi, and OpenAI-compatible endpoints), and requests go straight from your device to that service. UnivNote charges no fees. - ⋯ › Give AI a Task in a note: ask something like "Write the answer to the left of each problem in 14.2", and the AI reads only what it needs from the note's images, text boxes and handwriting, then places the result next to the problem, where you can see it, or on a page after it, without overlapping anything. You can also have it grade your handwritten solutions, and Undo All removes only what it placed. - There's also Summarize with AI (Summary Notes, Practice Questions & Solutions, Things to Memorize), Ask AI for selected text and the lasso, AI Summary Note for recordings, and Ask How to Use. Create Table of Contents and Book Translation also work directly, without copying and pasting. - AI answers appear as they arrive, and once complete they're typeset like a note page, math and tables included. If an answer hasn't been added to the note or copied, you're asked before the window closes. - The first time you turn on each feature, you'll see what is sent to which service and be asked for consent. You can also turn them all on at once with Turn All On. - In the lasso, Copy Link is now part of Copy. When you paste, choose Paste as Link to get a link. - Review images collected in Mistake Notes are spaced further apart, so they look less crowded. - Fixed memory use that kept growing when the app was left open for a long time (especially on Mac). Turning iCloud on or off with a large library also uses less memory.
