TL;DR

Immich v2.7 improves image handling and duplicate management. The mobile app now loads images more reliably, and the server intelligently suggests which duplicate photos to keep, automatically syncing metadata between them.

Breaking

• Helmet Configuration: Enabling the Content Security Policy (CSP) via IMMICH_HELMET_FILE=true may require adjustments if you use custom CSS, map providers, or embed Immich in iframes.

New

• Duplicate Management: Server-side duplicate detection now suggests which photos to keep based on size and EXIF data, and automatically synchronizes metadata.
• Asset Viewer Actions: "Remove from album" and "Move to locked folder" actions are now available directly within the web asset viewer.

Fixes Worth Knowing

• Fixed issues with image loading on iOS and Safari.
• Improved reliability of database imports and restores.
• Resolved a bug preventing people search with fewer than three characters.
• Corrected issues with ML containers on older CPUs and external library imports.

Before You Upgrade

• If enabling the CSP, test thoroughly to ensure compatibility with your Immich setup.

TL;DR

The latest update to Immich improves the photo upload experience, particularly for large iCloud libraries, and adds visual indicators (icons) for Live/Motion Photos in the mobile app.

Fixes Worth Knowing

Several fixes improve the mobile app’s timeline, including loading local thumbnails, scrolling behavior, and ensuring local assets aren’t incorrectly added to albums. Upload stability is improved by processing uploads only after successful remote synchronization. iOS export and temporary file handling are also corrected.

New

A new documentation site (docs.immich.app) is available. The mobile app now includes an "unstack" button for photos.

TL;DR

Immich now allows sharing individual photos and videos publicly, with options for controlling EXIF data (image metadata) and downloads coming soon.

New

• Public Sharing: Share individual assets or groups of assets with a public link.
• EXIF Improvements: More accurate timestamp parsing from images using timezone information (EXIF data - image metadata).

Fixes Worth Knowing

• Corrected issues with incorrect time display on web and mobile.
• Fixed a bug preventing uploaded assets from being added to shared albums.
• Resolved login error handling on the web interface.
• Database connection timeout issues are addressed.

Before You Upgrade

There is currently no automated way to re-process existing photos with the improved EXIF parsing. A future update will address this.

TL;DR

Immich now performs object detection (identifying things in your photos) using a new machine learning microservice, improving photo organization and search.

Breaking

• The mobile app and server must both be updated to version 1.3.0 or later. The upload process has changed to send thumbnails directly from the app, removing server-side dependencies.

New

• Object Detection: Immich can now identify objects within your photos.
• Apple ProRaw Support: The system now supports Apple’s ProRaw image format (.DNG).

Fixes Worth Knowing

• Improved error messages for duplicate files.
• Corrected Mapbox key requirement.
• Fixed issues with Docker builds.

Before You Upgrade

• Update both your Immich server and mobile app to version 1.3.0 or higher to ensure compatibility with the new upload process.

TL;DR

Immich now automatically tags images using machine learning (image recognition) and includes a new search feature to quickly find photos.

New

• Image Tagging: Photos are now automatically tagged with relevant keywords using TensorFlow.
• Search: A new bottom app bar provides access to a dedicated search page and results.
