Shotwell 1.5.0

Released March 27, 2026

What's new

Swipe through your recent screenshots in a new wipe-animated carousel on the empty editor state.
Free trial eligibility is now detected automatically — the Pro screen shows the correct offer for your account.
Gallery history is more reliable — saved compositions are retained and accessible after relaunch.
Exported images now render more accurately with a startup warmup pass for the canvas.
Picking a screenshot from the carousel loads it into the editor faster with a streamlined handoff.
