Enhancements & Improvements

Library enhancements streamline your workflow on mobile: We've reimagined key Library functions on mobile so you can work faster and more intuitively. Sorting, searching, and adding images to galleries now flow effortlessly, while improved deletion gives you confidence in managing your content. These refinements mean less time on file management and more time creating work that matters.

Fresh branding brings a modern, polished look across all platforms: We've updated our logo and visual design throughout SmugMug to create a more contemporary experience that showcases your work beautifully, whether you're on desktop or mobile.

iOS app updates

The mobile apps updated the “Photos” icon to “Library”, matching what is seen on the desktop with the native apps.

Next/Previous buttons now properly centered on iOS: We've corrected this alignment so your navigation feels polished and intuitive.

macOS uploader updates

Mac Uploader stability restored for macOS 26.0.1: We resolved a crash on launch so you can get back to seamlessly uploading files without interruption.

Bug Fixes

Download button restored for individual videos in Chrome on iPhone: We've fixed the missing download button so you can save videos directly to your device whenever you need them.

HEIC files now upload seamlessly: We corrected an upload issue so your iPhone HEIC photos transfer smoothly without needing to convert them.
