PhotoPrism

With this major new release, equirectangular 360° photos and videos can now be explored interactively. To preserve detail when zooming in, the maximum thumbnail and video resolution has been increased to 16K.

A new inline document viewer makes it possible to read multi-page PDFs without downloading them first. Metadata enthusiasts benefit from enhanced XMP support, allowing GPS coordinates and face regions to be imported from both XMP sidecar files and embedded XMP metadata. In addition, camera and lens make and model information can now be edited through the CLI and API. Elsewhere, the Settings interface has been reorganized and now includes a dedicated Accessibility section, where you can, for example, prevent action menus from opening on hover. Album download and sorting options have moved to a new Collections tab.

AI-related improvements include a new service_tier option for more cost-effective API requests, along with various fixes and improvements for Ollama. A special thank you to all our members, contributors, and testers who helped make this release possible! 🌈

This update introduces a redesigned Info Sidebar that lets you edit metadata, albums, and labels as well as manually tag faces without leaving the full-screen viewer. On the AI side, our ONNX-based face recognition pipeline has fully replaced the legacy Pigo detector, and the vision.yml configuration now accepts mixed-case model names so all identifiers from Hugging Face, Ollama, and OpenAI-compatible catalogs can be used.

Media handling has been thoroughly modernized: video transcoding now supports Vulkan hardware acceleration via FFmpeg 8, images use a native HEIC/AVIF reader (with libheif upgraded to v1.21.2), and layered TIFF and Adobe Photoshop PSD files are now supported. Other highlights include NOT & AND operators in the label filter, a drag-and-drop file upload zone, zstd compression for faster page loads, hardened WebDAV interoperability, and a new Ubuntu 26.04 LTS base image.

A big thank you to everyone who contributed and helped with testing! We hope you enjoy this release. 🌈💎✨

This service release focuses on security hardening, interoperability improvements, and bug fixes to create a stable platform for upcoming features. 🔧

Ollama users benefit from easier configuration with the OLLAMA_BASE_URL and OLLAMA_API_KEY environment variables, as well as improved fallback response handling for caption generation with reasoning models.

This major update introduces the long-awaited Batch Edit dialog, which allows you to edit the metadata of multiple pictures in one go. On the AI side, an upgraded face recognition pipeline delivers more and better matches. PhotoPrism now integrates directly with Ollama and OpenAI to generate captions and labels. Support for custom TensorFlow models, refined configuration, and new scheduling options offer further flexibility.

You'll also notice many performance and usability enhancements, such as the ability to change the cover image for a person, as well as updated dependencies and new translations.

As always, a big thank you to everyone who contributed and helped with testing! We hope you enjoy the new release as much as we do. 🌈💎✨

Upgrade Notes

• To benefit from the facial recognition improvements, we recommend running photoprism faces audit --fix and photoprism faces index in a terminal to resolve any inconsistencies before detecting and matching additional faces. If you want the new engine to re-detect all faces for a clean state, you can do so by executing the commands photoprism faces reset -f and then photoprism faces index (after that, all detected faces must be reassigned). A complete rescan will also detect additional faces, but takes longer since more indexing tasks are performed.
• PhotoPrism now supports multiple AI engines, so the PHOTOPRISM_DISABLE_TENSORFLOW option has been deprecated. You can still disable individual AI features using the PHOTOPRISM_DISABLE_* feature flags and/or a custom vision.yml configuration.

This release includes a long list of enhancements and new features, many of them contributed by our community. Most notably, performance has been significantly improved in many areas, we have added a collapsible info sidebar to the fullscreen viewer, it is possible to choose a specific picture as album cover, and you can configure computer vision tasks like image classification to use an external service for scalability and customization. A big THANK YOU to everyone who submitted pull requests, improved translations, or helped with testing! 💖

Important Changes

• To take advantage of the performance improvements in TensorFlow 2, users of our Docker images can set the PHOTOPRISM_INIT variable to "tensorflow". This will automatically detect, download, and install a version of TensorFlow optimized for your CPU.
• If you are using one of our manual installation packages, you can find libtensorflow binaries optimized for AMD64 and ARM64 CPUs on our download server. Updated libheif binaries for HEIC/HEIF image support are also available.
• A 32-bit version for Raspberry Pis with an ARMv7 CPU is no longer part of our regular releases, as TensorFlow 2 does not run on them. We have therefore created an ARMv7 architecture branch with an irregular release schedule and welcome contributions.
