Huge congratulations to the Immich team! Excited to see v2.0.0 reach stable release — an amazing milestone for open-source and self-hosting |
|
congratulations to the team at Immich (and by extension, FUTO)!! a well deserved victory for the open source community!! |
|
Is the performance better than previous versions, because it used to be a resource hog |
|
About time. It's been so long without an update that I thought immich was abandoned. (im not serious) |
|
this is the legit successor of the AOL CDRom |
|
Since last few updates (1.14X) the app get stuck when opening I have to force close it and open it again. |
|
This is great news!! Congrats to everyone |
|
Congrats to the team! 🎉🎉 Been eagerly awaiting this one |
|
Added my long overdue contribution by buying a server licence. 💰 |
|
Thank you for creating and maintaining such a beautiful software. A big thanks to everyone who contributes. :D |
|
Could you please add a floating version tag, such as 'v2', so that we can pin the major version in Docker Compose? Currently, the only options are a specific version, such as v2.0.0, or the latest release, which may introduce breaking changes again when it jumps to v3. |
|
Could you add an rss feed to the blog? Yes, people are still using rss :) |

Thank you so much to the whole Immich team and all contributors for the incredible work you’ve put into this project. Your dedication to open source and self-hosting makes a huge difference, and I’m grateful to be part of this community. Congratulations on this milestone, and here’s to the future of Immich! 🎉🚀 |

Congrats on reaching such a milestone! You're building an amazing and feature-rich product! |
|
I'm experiencing an upgrade problem after using the Docker & VectorChord instructions from https://docs.immich.app/install/upgrading. My previous version was 1.133 Docker compose went without any issues, and ps shows healthy processes, but now I get a DNS error:
docker ps -a shows
Any pointers what I could do? Thanks! |
|
Great!!! There're just 3 little things that I think should be mandatory for a stable version of Immich:
I think that with these 3 things the release can really be considered a stable version 😊 |
|
Hi, great news, congratulations! |
|
Finally! Waiting now for editor and, most important at least for me, #165 |
|
Congratulations !! I've been using Immich for 2 months now and it already seemed very stable, so I didn't understand why it wasn't :) |
|
Congratulations on this awesome milestone! 🥳 Can't wait to see what you'll bring in the future! |
|
Great, I hope there will finally be an option to disable albums from the timeline view, which will make the timeline contain only what is needed. |
Hehe. Nice. Congrats and thanks for the ride so far! For an "unstable" product, it was quite well-working and flawless already. |
v2.0.0 - Stable Release of Immich
Watch the video
Welcome
Hello everyone,
After:
We are thrilled to announce the stable release of Immich! 🎉
This has been a journey long in the making. So much has changed since the first commit on the project, all the way back in February, 2022. The project and team continue to grow, and today we’re proud to announce
v2.0.0, our stable release. Stable signifies that we have now resolved a significant amount of technical debt. It also means we will be prioritizing compatibility and less effort will be required to keep Immich up-to-date. Finally, it means that the warning banner on the website has been removed! Along with this, we’re happy to announce a new version of the https://immich.app/ website.For more specifics about the stable release, see our FAQs below.
Merch and DVD
To celebrate this release, we want to capture this moment in a nostalgic form, reminiscent of how software was distributed in our childhood - on a CD (or DVD, in this “case”). Introducing Immich Stable in physical form! You can find the link to the disk here
The disk comes with a fully bootable Immich instance, featuring a selection of curated photos chosen by the team. You can purchase the disk from our merch store, along with a client or server product key, to support and celebrate this milestone with us.
The merch store is also updated with retro-styled Immich designs, check it out in https://immich.store
Future plans
Now that Immich is stable, here are some of the things that we will be focusing on:
Thank you
We cannot thank you enough for the support over the past three years. Community participation, from the first comments on the original reddit post, to the feedback when we joined FUTO, have contributed to the awesome product Immich is today. Thank you for joining us and believing in our mission to regain control over your most precious data. Here’s to many more years!
We'll also be hosting a Q&A livestream tomorrow, October 2nd, 2025 at 6 PM UTC. You can submit your questions here and subscribe for notifications when the livestream starts here.
Cheers,
The Immich Team
FAQs
Will there be a live stream?
Yes. We'll be hosting a Q&A livestream tomorrow, October 2nd, 2025 at 6 PM UTC. You can submit your questions here and subscribe for notifications when the livestream starts here.
Do I still need backups?
Yes! A 3-2-1 backup strategy is still crucial. The team has the responsibility to ensure that the application doesn’t cause loss of your precious memories; however, we cannot guarantee that hard drives will not fail, or an electrical event causes unexpected shutdown of your server/system, leading to data loss. Therefore, we still encourage users to follow best practices when safeguarding their data. Keep multiple copies of your most precious data: at least two local copies and one copy offsite in cold storage. Additionally, we are starting to work on a cloud backup service to make backups easier.
