CHANGELOG / THE WORK CONTINUES
Every change.
A clear record.
A record of Siftroom's version changes. The home page describes the product; this page records what changed.
ENGLISH / SIMPLIFIED CHINESE
Your language.
The same focused review.
- The app now supports English, following system preferences or a language chosen in General settings. Quit and reopen to apply a change.
- Localized menus, imports, projects, denoising, maps, exports, client PDFs, permission descriptions and errors.
- Switch website language in the upper-right corner while keeping the current page and section. Support, privacy and version history are available in English.
IMPORT / PROJECTS / LOCAL DENOISE
From memory card
to photos worth keeping.
- New Import Center: preview and import a card or folder, with per-file SHA-256 read-back verification.
- Optional second-disk backup with independent verification, pause and resume, and exportable reports. Sources remain intact.
- Grouped RAW/JPEG/XMP renaming, identical-content deduplication and metadata templates for creator, copyright and keywords.
- New Projects: remember review progress, edits and your last photo, reuse local analysis and relocate moved folders.
- New on-device AI Denoise with strength, luminance and color controls, native-pixel comparison and batch export of picked photos.
- Refined import layout, date and option controls, denoise feedback and detail comparison.
CLIENT SELECTION / PDF DELIVERY
Clients make their picks.
You get them straight back.
- Export Client Selection creates watermarked previews, instructions and a checkable PDF.
- Clients open the PDF, make picks, save and return it. No website, account or JSON files.
- Import Client Picks automatically flags the matching originals as picked.
- File menus now display shortcuts for opening, exporting, watermarks, client picks, Finder reveal and cancellation.
WATERMARK / PREVIEW
See the result.
Then export it.
- Live watermark preview in Export, updating as settings change.
- Drag marks freely, or use nine quick anchors.
- Hide settings to focus on the preview. Position, size and opacity persist between sessions.

DEVELOP / FILTER / RELIABILITY

The same focused review.

- Local packs, real photo previews, a mask-based workshop, import/export and filter shortcuts.
