This release introduces the most requested feature since the beginning of Immich; the ability to serve existing photos in a streamlined and easy-to-use manner. Not only that, this release packs a ton of other improvements that we hope you will like.

External Libraries

External libraries tracks assets stored outside of immich, i.e. in the file system. Immich will only read data from the files, and will not modify them in any way. Therefore, the delete button is disabled for external assets. When the external library is scanned, immich will read the metadata from the file and create an asset in the library for each image or video file. These items will then be shown in the main timeline, and they will look and behave like any other asset, including viewing on the map, adding to albums, etc.
