Linux Version Enters Alpha Testing!!! We re thrilled to announce that iPhotron is expanding! Our Linux version is now officially in Alpha testing, bringing our photo management experience to a whole new platform.

Native RAW Image Support We ve added support for RAW format images. You can now seamlessly import, view, and manage your uncompressed, high-quality RAW photos directly within your library, unlocking greater flexibility for your photography workflow.

Aspect Ratio Constraints for Cropping We ve added aspect ratio constraint options to the crop tool. This brings the cropping experience much closer to the native macOS Photos app, making your editing workflow more intuitive, precise, and familiar.

Fullscreen and General Bug Fixes Fixed a bug affecting fullscreen mode to ensure a seamless and reliable viewing experience. We ve also squashed various other minor bugs under the hood to improve overall app stability.

1. Faster App Launch
   We ve significantly improved app launch speed, reducing startup overhead so you can get into your library much faster.

2. Updated Info Panel Style
   We ve refined the Info Panel style for a cleaner, more polished, and more consistent viewing experience.

3. Fixed Window Size Display Issues Across Different Resolutions
   Fixed an issue where dragging the window between displays with different resolutions could cause incorrect window sizing and display glitches, making multi-monitor use smoother and more reliable.

What s New in v4.2.0

ParallelScanner Up to 3 Faster Library Scanning

We rebuilt scanning around better concurrency, scheduling, and IO utilization to dramatically cut scan time:

• Improved parallelism + task partitioning to better use multi-core systems

• Smarter scheduling/queueing to reduce idle time and contention

• Higher IO throughput with less unnecessary work and fewer bottlenecks

I d like to share iPhotro v4.0.0, a free and open-source, local-first photo manager that recently gained a set of advanced color grading tools.

This release focuses on giving photographers precise control over color and tone, while keeping a clean, non-destructive workflow and a familiar, macOS-like interface.
