## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.2 — 2026-09-02

Behind the scenes improvements

### 1.6.1 — 2026-09-01

Behind-the-scenes fixes

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-29

Search results are now ranked by popularity, and they include popular albums search used to miss entirely. Chosen grid layout is remembered between sessions, grids that had quietly lost slots repair themselves, and album covers no longer get stuck loading, they keep retrying until they arrive.

### 1.5.1 — 2026-08-27

Fixes album covers that could show as missing when not loaded on first attempt, now retries instead of giving up.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-26

Album art that wouldn't load is fixed.

• Covers that used to sit there loading forever now load. If no artwork is found for an album, you'll see a placeholder instead of waiting on nothing.

• Saved grids keep a copy of their covers on your device. They open instantly, work offline, and won't go blank if an image disappears later.

• Album art is sharper.

• Search updates as you type, and finally handles names properly.

• Search skips albums with no artwork, so you're not scrolling past empty squares.

• "Export" is now "Preview", and the "saved to camera roll" message only shows up once it's actually saved.
