Feature Request: Add "Clear All History" / Bulk Delete Option #13

Description

@MePriyanshuHoo

Summary

Currently, individual history entries can be deleted via Right-click → Delete, but there is no option to clear all history at once. Adding a bulk clear option would improve usability and history management.

Current Behavior

  • Individual entries can be deleted via right-click
  • No option to clear all history
  • No bulk selection or mass deletion

Problem

Over time, the history grows quickly, especially when using dictation frequently.
Deleting entries one-by-one becomes tedious and time-consuming.

Common scenarios:

  • Cleaning up test dictations
  • Clearing sensitive or private content
  • Resetting history for a fresh start
  • General periodic cleanup

Proposed Solutions

Option 1 (Preferred)

Add "Clear All History" button:

  • Top-right of History section
  • Or in "Right-click for more options" menu

Option 2

Add menu option:

  • Edit → Clear History
  • Or Wave → Clear History

Option 3 (Nice to Have)

Add confirmation dialog:

  • "Are you sure you want to clear all history?"
  • Prevent accidental deletion

Why This Helps

  • Faster cleanup
  • Better privacy control
  • Less friction for heavy users
  • Improved long-term usability

Additional Notes

Since dictation apps generate frequent entries, bulk history management feels like an essential quality-of-life feature.
