A Quick Update: FotoSketcher 4.10 Beta is in the works

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on the next update for FotoSketcher, and I wanted to give you a quick sneak peek at what’s coming in version 4.10 (currently in beta).

First and foremost, thank you for your feedback following the launch of version 4.0. Some of you reported a frustrating issue where the app would occasionally freeze right after the splashscreen. To tackle this, I’ve completely reworked the launch sequence. Hopefully, this new startup process will eliminate the freezing and get you into the app smoothly🤞

Alongside the under-the-hood fixes, I’m also adding a few additions and improvements:

  • Two New Photo Lab Effects: I’m introducing a Vintage Sepia effect for that classic, timeless look, as well as a Retro Film effect to give your photos that nostalgic, old-school color film vibe.

  • UI Improvements: I’ve made some interface tweaks to make the app more user-friendly, specifically improving the Manual Brush tool and updating the Resize Dialog for a smoother workflow.


I'm still working on this beta and running tests, but if you've been hit by the app freeze bug in version 4.0, here is a download link to FotoSketcher 4.10 beta 1 for Windows (just unzip and run): https://fotosketcher.com/beta/FotoSketcher_4.10_beta1.zip  

Thank you as always for your bug reports, your feedback, and your support!

Best regards,

David
