Release Notes

What's new in each version of Gigi Frame.

0.7.1

Latest April 14, 2026

New

  • Added local tooling to update the release notes page from the current app version and git history.

Improved

  • Harden album and photo deletion flows.
  • Added version tags for the recent app releases to keep release history easier to track.

0.7.0

April 02, 2026

New

  • Share any photo directly from the fullscreen viewer using the system share sheet.
  • Filter jobs now run in the background via WorkManager — you can leave the app and filtering continues uninterrupted.
  • If a filter run is interrupted, you can resume or discard it the next time you open the album.
  • Live filter progress is shown per-album, including a persistent notification with a cancel action.
  • Android 13+ users are prompted to grant notification permission so filter updates can be delivered.

Improved

  • Deleting a photo or album now shows a confirmation dialog to prevent accidental removals.
  • Fullscreen viewer header is cleaner — filename removed, share and delete controls better aligned.
  • Oversized photos are downsampled before filtering to reduce memory usage and batch processing time.
  • Filter writes are now atomic — cancelling mid-batch leaves already-processed photos intact.
  • Widget recovers correctly after device reboot.

Fixed

  • Widget permission state is now properly restored after the app process is killed and restarted.
  • Filter progress state is preserved across app restores so counts and status display correctly on reopen.
  • Concurrent filter runs on multiple albums are now blocked to prevent race conditions.
