📦 Rollio Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

[2.6.0] – 2026-11-09

✨ New Features

• Widgets: see the roll in your camera and its frame count without opening the app, log a frame for it, or open the light meter.
  • iOS (17 and later for the roll widget): a small and a medium Current Roll widget for the Home Screen, three Lock Screen sizes, and a Light Meter widget. Built with expo-widgets.
  • Android: a 2×2 and a 4×2 Current Roll widget, each with Log Frame and Light Meter buttons. Built with react-native-android-widget until expo-widgets can open the app from an Android widget; the code under widgets/android can go then.
• A roll for each widget: a widget follows the roll you logged to most recently, or stays on one roll chosen in its settings (Edit Widget on iOS, the widget’s settings button on Android). A chosen roll that leaves the camera hands over to the latest roll.

🔧 Changes

• Saving a frame opened from a widget lands on that roll’s page, to show where the frame went.
• A form opened by a link into the app (rollio:///log-frame, /new-film) while the app was closed now closes to the start screen, or to the saved roll with the film list behind it, instead of having nowhere to go. A link straight to a roll (/films/<id>) gets the film list behind it too.
• Android: a link that arrives after the system ended the app in the background opens the linked screen instead of the start screen.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• When the system switched between light and dark with the app open, the header buttons (back, +, …) on iOS and the status bar icons on Android kept the old look until the app was restarted. Both now follow the switch at once.

[2.5.0] – 2026-11-09

✨ New Features

• Skip a frame: touch and hold + on a roll and choose Skip a Frame to log a blank frame, an accidental exposure or a shot not worth recording. The frame keeps its number, so the count stays in step with the camera. Skipped frames show as a slim dimmed row, can carry a note, and can be logged after all by opening them and turning Skipped Frame off. They keep their place in the PDF contact sheet and the CSV, with no exposure settings.
• What’s New in Settings: every release’s notes on one page, so the sheet shown after an update can be read again.

🔧 Changes

• A new frame copies its settings from the last logged frame, not from a skipped one.
• iOS: on a roll, + and … now sit in separate glass circles.
• Database schema 5 adds the skipped flag to frames. Backups made by this version cannot be restored by older versions.

[2.4.1] – 2026-11-05

✨ New Feature

• Color contact sheets: the PDF export now asks whether the photos should be black & white, the classic look, or color as shot. Handy for telling color rolls from black & white ones in a folder of negatives.

[2.4.0] – 2026-10-26

✨ New Feature

• Exposure Planner: open the light meter’s calculator without taking a reading. Slide through scenes from snow in full sun to moonlight to set the EV, then work the aperture, shutter and ISO columns as usual. The ruler follows the sheet’s full-stops setting: whole EVs by default, thirds when half/third stops are on. Handy for deciding which film and lenses to bring.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• iOS: the reading sheet’s title, close and gear buttons were white in light mode, unreadable on the light glass.
• Android: the planner sheet was drawn underneath the gradient that covers the paused camera, so tapping the sun showed only the gradient.

[2.3.1] – 2026-10-21

✨ New Feature

• Open on Launch in Settings: start Rollio on Films or the Light Meter.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Two frames saved in a row no longer get the same frame number.
• An untouched New Film or New Frame form no longer asks to discard changes.
• Editing a frame without touching Save Location leaves its stored location alone.
• Roll rows refresh when expected shots change; frame rows refresh when the roll’s ISO changes.
• The review prompt only follows adding a roll, not editing one.
• CSV shutter speeds carry their unit so spreadsheets stop reading them as dates.
• Android: every tip purchase is finished so it is not refunded, and Back closes the light meter reading sheet.

[2.3.0] – 2026-10-20

✨ New Feature

• Save Location on a frame keeps its GPS spot with a short place label. The switch stays on for the next frames until you change it.
• Frames with a location show a pin on the roll and an Open in Maps link in the frame form.
• Latitude and longitude columns in the CSV export.
• If you save while the position is still being found, Rollio asks first and fills the spot in once it arrives.

🔧 Internal

• Database schema v4 with per-frame location columns.
• Privacy policy updated for location use.

[2.2.0] – 2026-10-20

✨ New Features

• Back Up and Restore in Settings: every roll, frame and photo in one .rollio file you can keep in iCloud Drive, Google Drive or anywhere the share sheet reaches. Restoring replaces all current data after a warning and rolls back if it fails.
• Export a roll from the film’s menu as a print-ready A4 PDF contact sheet or a CSV spreadsheet.
• What’s New sheet shown once after an update.
• Contact the developer mail link on the Support tab.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Android: exported files are shared with the app you pick, not just the chooser.
• Android: long contact sheets paginate correctly.

[2.1.7] – 2026-10-20

✨ New Feature

• Settings tab with an App Language row that opens the system language settings.

🛠 Improvements

• Side safe-area insets respected for iPhone Duo and Split View, including modal forms.
• Save and delete failures are shown instead of closing the form silently.
• The review prompt can fire after the first roll.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Restored the 1.x column and image-path migrations so upgrades from old versions keep their data.
• Frame writes are atomic; image files are deleted after their row.

🔧 Internal

• Upgraded to Expo SDK 58 for Xcode 27.
• Removed debug logging.

[2.1.6] – 2026-07-24

✨ New Feature

• Rollio is now localized in Japanese and Korean, following the device language.
