8.30.0 (2026-10-04)

Bug Fixes

  • android: download an image once when a view loads it while it's being preloaded (#1231) (66a5f0e)

Features

  • android: animate animated WebP and AVIF (Glide 4.16 by default) (#1229) (2a0130a)
  • android: animate APNG images (#1228) (6cd5ece)
  • ios: include SDWebImagePhotosPlugin, so photo library images load without installing it (#1235) (2c789c6)

Performance Improvements

  • android: decode animated WebP copies off the main thread, and reuse Glide's (#1227) (6d42e5d)

Notes

  • Android: Glide 4.16 by default (was 4.12). Apps that set glideVersion keep their version; with one before 4.15, animated WebP and AVIF images show their first frame.
  • Android: APNG4Android is included (com.github.penfeizhou.android.animation:apng 3.0.5, about 60 KB) when the app's minSdkVersion is 21 or later. Apps that added it for FastImage can remove their own dependency (keeping it is fine). With a lower minSdkVersion, APNGs show their first frame, as before.
  • iOS: SDWebImagePhotosPlugin is now a dependency, so run pod install after updating. Apps that added pod 'SDWebImagePhotosPlugin' (or the expo-build-properties extraPods entry) for photo library images can remove it.
