Shotwell 1.3.1

Released March 23, 2026

What's new

Added faster empty-editor entry points so you can jump straight to selecting a photo or importing the latest screenshot.
Improved latest-screenshot detection when Shotwell looks for a recent screenshot to open.
Removed WebP from export options. Public exports now use JPEG or PNG.
Added dedicated gallery screens for history, stroke styles, and style presets with faster preview loading.
Refined editor controls and screenshot-based defaults so new imports start from a cleaner baseline.
