Motion Desktop 1.5.5 released!
| Version 1.5.5 – November 12, 2026 | |
| Requirements This version requires macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. | |
| Enhancement: | Smart Folders refresh when first loaded after launch, added, edited, or manually rescanned. Removed recurring folder scans, live monitoring, and automatic retries to reduce background CPU and disk activity. |
| Enhancement: | Apple Photos albums use the current library snapshot until Refresh is selected. Removed periodic and window-activation library reloads while preserving cloud access for requested playback and previews. |
| Bug Fix: | Settings prepares controls only for the selected pane and displays cached storage measurements without scanning download folders while the window opens. |
| Bug Fix: | Kept finished Smart Folder scans while menus or dialogs are open, and prevented cancelled or stale results from replacing a newer source. |
