Features

• Image Management: Added support for "Favorites" and the ability to import shared images from external applications.
• Customization: Support for custom tap gestures.

Visual Effects

• Duotone & Blurring: Added new "screen" blending mode for duotone effects and refined the Gaussian blur algorithm for better quality and performance.
• Chromatic Aberration: Introduced a "breathing" animation.
• Refinements: Improved grain noise patterns at small sizes and adjusted effect layering (chromatic aberration is now applied over duotone).

Fixes

Performance & Engine Stability

• Memory Management: Significantly reduced per-frame allocations and improved resource recycling for Bitmaps and GL textures to prevent leaks.
• Concurrency: Hardened the GLThread logic to handle race conditions during texture uploads and protected the GL queue against context loss.
• Optimization: Many optimization to improve smoothness and improve stability futher
• Frame Stability: Added frame drop logging and fixed "burst" image changes. The wallpaper no longer "jumps" or "pulses" when adjusting blur levels.
• Rendering Engine: Migrated the rendering pipeline to GLES 3, enabling more advanced effects and far better performance and much fewer crashes.
• File System: Added support for showing document names from DocumentsProvider and implemented automatic folder rescanning once all images have been viewed.
