What's New in GroundGlass

4.9.9

September 14, 2026

GroundGlass 4.9.9 NEW · Bulb times keep fractional seconds, and anything past one hour is recorded in full. · Enter bulb time as minutes and seconds. Seconds can go past 59, and decimals are fine. · Free-text times you typed before (like “about two and a half minutes”) stay as they are, and you can still edit them. · Times follow your language. The word for bulb is the same in the detail view, share images, and PDFs. · Share images are clearer: 3:4 by default, and the whole image grows taller when there’s more to show. · The photo wall shows what you’re filtering by. If nothing matches, you can clear it in one tap. · The detail page now has a short exposure summary at the top. A scan shows first when you have one; you can switch to the scene photo. · Individual zone readings and long development notes can be folded away. · Analytics can include bulb records. · Large text is easier to use. Several calculators now have diagrams.
