What changed in Folio Refresh
Every version of the download, newest first. The latest is 1.1.1, released 31 October 2026. The download offers each new version itself and asks before installing it. The Mac App Store edition is on its way.
Version 1.1.1 31 October 2026
Sony RAW files.
- Folio Refresh recognises every Sony camera macOS supports, including those macOS names differently from the camera (the a7R III, a9 and A99 II among them).
- A Sony RAW it cannot read is now correctly reported as damaged.
Version 1.1 30 October 2026
Ready for touch-screen Macs, and the first version named Folio Refresh (it was FolioLuma until 28 October 2026).
- Everything works with a finger: small buttons are easier to tap, and anything that used to be a hover tooltip has an ⓘ you can tap instead.
- Bigger text and shorter explanations, with the detail one tap away behind an ⓘ.
- Capture One: photos stored inside the catalog are now compared too, not only referenced ones.
- A RAW from a camera newer than macOS is no longer called damaged: Folio Refresh shows the preview inside it and still groups its identical copies.
- The inspector widens the window instead of being cut off, and a group of identical copies is no longer described as "not identical".
Version 1.0.2 27 October 2026
Scanning starts on its own.
- Add a folder, allow your Photos library or choose a catalog, and the scan starts straight away. A scan only reads, and Cancel stops it.
- One button to scan: Scan Now before the first scan, and Scan Again after it.
Version 1.0.1 27 October 2026
More room for your photos, and help one click away.
- The main screen and the review lists start higher in the window.
- Earlier Cleanups no longer slips below the bottom of the review screen, and opens even before your first clean-up.
- The Help menu opens the support page, with answers about licence keys, moving to another Mac and getting photos back.
Version 1.0 27 October 2026
The first release, as FolioLuma, a download with a licence key.
- Identical copies, similar shots and bursts in folders, the Photos library, Lightroom Classic and Capture One catalogs, with a suggested copy to keep and the reason for it.
- In similar photos and series, the frame where someone blinked is not the one suggested.
- Scanning and reviewing are free, and so are the first 100 photos you clean. A licence unlocks the rest, paid once.
