Hi @everyone, some Christmas goodies for all of you 🎄 ## 🧘 Rituals * For a lot of us, photos are more than preserving moments * We use them to build habits and track progress - workouts, eating, and more * We built Rituals so you can start new habits and track your progress through photos * [Read more about why we built this](https://ente.io/blog/rituals/) and let us know what you think ## 🔗 Public Links for everyone * Public links can now be created and shared by Ente users on the free plan * We had earlier restricted links for free users to prevent abuse * There is a device limit of 5 for viewing links, which will prevent abuse while taking care of genuine cases ## 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Tag People manually * You can now tag people manually even if they are not in photos * This has been a highly requested feature, especially when you have shared a moment with someone not in the frame * Some folks in the team are using this to tag their pets, though you can only do it if atleast one pet face is detected by the on-device AI ## 🛠️ Other Improvements * You can now pin shared albums too * Album links would be visible to other participants so they can copy and share if needed * An updated photo view design and a new favorite icon to make room for upcoming features (Guess what?) ## <:Auth:1439920512838012940> Auth * We have added an icon picker, so you can go back to the old icon if you were more fond of it * You can now import andOTP encrypted backups ## <:Locker:1439921102452428861> Locker * You can now customise Legacy to have a custom time for account recovery * We have also enabled the ability to share collections to other Ente users * We are now building up towards a public release, so a lot of improvements upcoming * If you havent tried Locker, you can try it out on [Android](https://play.google.com/apps/testing/io.ente.locker) or [iOS](https://testflight.apple.com/join/rbmJYPz1). Do share your thoughts in <#1439920913096380537> ## 📻 Vishnu's Podcast * Vishnu sat down with Kailash Nadh, CTO of Zerodha, and founder, FLOSS/fund * Kailash is a massive force in the Indian Open Source ecosystem * FLOSS/fund has recently also given a total of $1M to FFmpeg, OpenStreetMaps, ImageMagick, and Ente among others * Check out the full video - [Kailash Nadh on building Zerodha](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAiJD3cGFN8&t=1s) ## 🔮 2026 * We are really excited about what 2026 will look like for all Ente products * Photos remain our primary product and we have a lot of exciting features lined up for 2026 * We are also planning to spend a lot of time in Q1 polishing Photos from an experience standpoint, and iron out small inconveniences * Auth, an already well rounded product, is expected to continue improving, while we gear up to launch Locker publicly and make it useful for more people That's all from us for 2025.
