Changelog

26.10-rc.1

Pre-release
Added 6
  • New memo drafts offer optional suggestions for tags, checklist formatting, and visibility based on the current filters or selected View, which disappear once fulfilled
  • Existing audio attachments can be transcribed from the memo editor using the configured transcription provider, with the transcript inserted into the draft while existing text and the original audio are preserved
  • Signed-out visitors can browse readable memos in Calendar and Map
  • A memo's Space can be chosen alongside its visibility in the editor's audience menu
  • Image previews support pinch to zoom, panning zoomed images by dragging, and swiping between gallery images at fit zoom
  • Norwegian Nynorsk is available as a language
Changed 12
  • The selected creator and Space are kept while switching between Timeline, Calendar, Map, and Attachments
  • The attachment library includes files from readable memos and shows their uploaders
  • Photos and author avatars identify days and map pins when browsing several authors
  • The desktop calendar leaves room for its day panel
  • Collapsible Markdown sections have clearer indicators and spacing while preserving native keyboard controls and nested sections

Fixed 4
  • Filters such as has_task_list == false correctly include memos without that property
  • Deleting a memo also deletes its comments and nested replies so they no longer resurface as standalone memos
  • Notifications follow the active theme and reaction pickers close without flashing at the page corner
  • Titles and images appear more reliably in link previews of large web pages
Removed 2

v0.31.0

Latest
Added 20
  • Spaces for organizing memos in shared groups with custom icons or emoji, invite people through their inbox, and move memos between Spaces
  • Space-only visibility option to limit a memo's audience to active Space members
  • Calendar view to browse memos by month and open a day to read or add notes for that date
  • Map view to explore memos with location data
  • Save reusable filters as Views with custom icons
  • Filter memos by Space or location

From memos

Memos 0.31 adds Spaces for collaboration, Calendar and Map views for browsing your notes, and tools to move your memos between instances. Writing, search, attachments, and navigation also receive improvements throughout the app.

Highlights
  • Spaces: Organize memos in shared Spaces, invite people through their inbox, move memos between Spaces, and choose custom icons or emoji. Space-only visibility limits a memo's audience to active Space members, with the administrator access described below. (#6228, #6266, #6285, #6287)
  • Calendar and Map: Browse memos by month, open a day to read or add notes for that date, and explore memos with location data on a dedicated map. (#6277, #6280, map page)
  • Views and search: Save reusable filters as Views with custom icons. Filter by Space or location, find memos outside any Space, use expressions in Quick Find, and see search matches highlighted in memo content. (#6167, #6181, #6267, #6276, #6305, #6335)
  • Export and import: Move your memos between instances from Settings → Export & Import using Memos Export Format (ZIP). Exports include archived memos, comments you wrote, and attachment files. Older export files remain importable. This is a personal export; instance settings and other users' data are not included. (#6334, export format)
  • Attachments: Configure multiple named storage backends, insert attachment images into memo content, upload files in smaller chunks, and see your attachment storage usage in account settings. (#6184, #6172, chunked uploads, #6326)
  • Writing and navigation: Create memos from the sidebar, use Markdown formatting shortcuts, resize the desktop sidebar, and keep your Space and filters when navigating to a memo and back. (#6219, #6258, #6148, Space navigation)
Fixes and polish
  • Editor: Improved IME and Windows emoji input, restored native mobile text assistance, attached pasted files correctly, preserved timestamp edits, and expanded tag autocomplete to more editing contexts. (IME input, emoji input, #6248, pasted files, timestamp edits, #6327)
  • Markdown: Improved tag recognition, stopped currency amounts from being interpreted as inline math, fixed numbered task-list toggles, and enabled telephone and SMS links. (#6132, #6216, #6346, #6341)
  • Map and media: Restored keyless OpenStreetMap tiles, fixed navigation away from the Map after a WebGL failure, improved HEIC/HEIF detection, and added 0.5× and 0.75× audio playback. (#6242, WebGL cleanup, #6246, audio speeds)
  • Interface and languages: Refined memo navigation and comment menus, corrected focus-mode and right-to-left layouts, matched the installed app's status bar to dark mode, added Azerbaijani and Hebrew, and synchronized translations across supported languages. (#6261, comment menus, #6310, #6215, #6320, #6278, #6203, translations)
Administration and integrations
  • Security and reliability: Added rate limits and tighter request, image-processing, and import limits; strengthened remote-fetch validation; protected S3 uploads from object-key collisions; and corrected attachment cleanup. (#6315, hardening, remote-fetch protection)
  • Sessions and private files: Changing your password signs out your other sessions; an administrator password reset signs out all sessions for that account. S3 attachments are served through authenticated file routes. (session revocation, #6210)
  • Access mode: Public/private instance access is now stored independently of the instance URL. (#6225)
  • Integrations: Added Space operations to MCP and corrected tool schemas, fixed scheduled-job day matching, and added -V and --version to the CLI. (MCP Spaces, MCP schemas, #6306, #6321)
Upgrade notes
  • Administrator access: Active instance administrators can now read and manage individual memos, including private and Space-only memos, without being their author or a Space member. Collection listings still apply audience filtering; administrators do not automatically become Space members. (permission changes)
  • Views and API clients: Existing Shortcuts are migrated to Views. Integrations using the old Shortcut API must move to the UserService View operations under /api/v1/users/{user}/views. The reaction API also removes contentId; reactions remain scoped to their memo. (#6167, View operations, #6221)
  • Account email: Email remains optional. Addresses are trimmed, lowercased, and unique per instance. Upgrades clear invalid addresses and keep a duplicate address only on the oldest account; affected usernames are logged. (#6314)
  • RSS: RSS feed support has been removed. Existing feed URLs no longer provide feeds. (#6243)
