Feature Request: Automatic Transcription History Clearing

Summary

It would be very useful to have an option to automatically clear transcription history on a scheduled basis, so users don't have to manually delete old transcriptions.

Proposed Feature

Add an Auto-Clear History setting that lets users choose from the following intervals:

  • End of day – history is cleared daily at midnight
  • Weekly – history is cleared once a week
  • Monthly – history is cleared at the end of each month
  • Every 3 months – history is cleared quarterly
  • Never (default / current behavior)

Why This Is Useful

  • Privacy: users who transcribe sensitive content don't have to remember to manually clear their history
  • Storage: keeps the app lightweight over time without requiring manual cleanup
  • Convenience: set-it-and-forget-it approach to history management

Suggested UX

A simple dropdown or radio button group in the app's Settings panel under a "History" or "Privacy" section, labeled something like "Automatically clear history" with the interval options listed above.

Thank you for considering this feature!
