Product updates
A record of what’s changed in GaleoSelect, from new tools to the details that make everyday work feel easier.
These notes describe the product at the time of each release. Current plans & limits
Ask Your Clients for a Selection
Add a client to a gallery and turn on Ask for a selection. They choose the photos they want, confirm it's them with a code sent to their email, and send the selection to you. Set a limit if you need one. You hear about it the moment a selection arrives.
Your portfolio has a new design at the same address. Write a headline and a short bio, pick a look and a column count, and drag your galleries into the order you want. Turn on Show in portfolio in any gallery to add it. A short guided tour walks you through it the first time.
Aperture, Field Notes, Cutline, Marquee and Monograph join the cover designs, each laid out for phones and computers. The cover picker now previews every design with your own photos, and you can use an image from your device as the cover without adding it to the gallery.
Your Galleries page now leads with photos. Each card shows views, downloads and size, marks galleries where a selection came in, and plays a short preview of a video when you hover over it. In list view, one switch takes a gallery live or adds it to your portfolio.
A Rebuilt Gallery Editor
Your photos now fill the screen, and the menus around them stay put. Drag photos onto any folder, or onto a new one, and resize the folder list to suit how you work. On a phone you swipe between folders, and pressing and holding a photo brings up cover, select and delete.
Anyone viewing a gallery can leave you a note at the end of it, and you hear about it the moment it arrives. In the editor, Collections are now grouped by person, so each client's notes and picks sit together. Save any note as an image card to share it.
See who is viewing your galleries right now, with likes and downloads as they happen. Insights compare visits with the previous period and show your busiest days and hours, top locations and devices. A short list flags what needs you, like a selection that hit its limit or a gallery nobody has opened yet.
A row of thumbnails now runs along the bottom of the photo viewer, so your clients can jump straight to any photo in a large gallery instead of swiping one at a time. It follows your folders, too.
Five Plans Instead of Three
Studio and Ultimate join Free, Standard and Pro, with 1 TB and 2 TB of storage for photographers running a full studio. Every plan still includes every feature. The only thing that changes between them is room.
Pay for a year up front and take 20% off any plan, which works out to roughly two and a half months free. Switch between monthly and yearly whenever you like from your account.
Standard grew from 40 GB to 50 GB and Pro from 200 GB to 300 GB, at the same price. Nothing to claim and nothing to switch on: if you were already on one of those plans, the extra room is already there.
Single video files can now run to 20 GB on the largest plan. Anything over 100 MB uploads in parts, so a connection that drops picks up where it left off instead of starting the whole file again.
Find Your Face in Any Gallery
Turn on People Filter for a gallery and GaleoSelect groups every face it finds. Your clients tap a face at the top of the gallery and instantly see only the photos they're in, instead of scrolling through hundreds of images to find themselves.
Your dashboard now opens on a live console. Every gallery sits on the left, and a detail panel on the right shows its status, recent client activity, and the actions you actually use. Checking on one shoot no longer means digging through pages.
The client-facing gallery and your dashboard are now fully translated. Set your language once and everything follows: widgets, tutorials, and the gallery experience your clients see.
Full-gallery downloads now notify you the way single-photo and collection downloads always did, with the client's name and exactly how many photos they took. Notifications also surface inside the gallery viewer, not just on your dashboard.
Short walkthrough videos right on your dashboard. One covers building your first gallery, the other covers the new People Filter, so you can watch the workflow instead of hunting for it.
More Storage on Paid Plans
We doubled the storage on every paid plan at no extra cost. The $10 plan now includes 40 GB (up from 20 GB) and the $20 plan jumps to 200 GB (up from 100 GB), room for far more galleries, photos, and video.
Share a gallery link anywhere, in texts, social, or email, and it now unfurls with the gallery's cover photo instead of a plain URL. Your work makes the first impression before anyone even clicks.
Clients on Android can now save images directly to their phone's photos with a single tap, no workarounds. Downloading favorites on mobile is finally seamless.
Custom Watermarks
Protect your work with your own logo. Build a personal logo library, choose position and opacity with a live preview, and GaleoSelect bakes the watermark onto every photo automatically in the background.
Organize a gallery into folders. Drag photos to move them, pick a cover folder, hide drafts from clients, and your viewers see clean, labeled sections instead of one long scroll.
Videos now stream adaptively (HLS) for fast starts on any connection, with a real-time “Processing…” status while uploads bake. Duration and resolution limits adjust to your plan.
A new way to design covers. Pick from cinematic presets (minimal-split, triple-stack, portrait, phone frame), set focal points, drag photos to rearrange the grid, and tune typography and background themes, all live.
Huge gallery downloads now stream straight to the client without running out of memory, including on iPhones, with an accurate progress bar from start to finish.
Password-protected galleries are now enforced server-side, and internal identifiers are stripped from the public payload so nothing leaks before clients sign in.
Interactive Location Picker
Pinpoint exactly where your photo sessions took place. Search by address or drop a pin directly on the map and the location fills in automatically. Coordinates are saved alongside every gallery, laying the groundwork for a visual map of all your shoots.
Gallery slideshows now move with a subtle parallax zoom, the Ken Burns effect, giving your presentations a cinematic, high-end feel that matches the quality of your work.
A dedicated space to manage incoming messages from potential clients. See your inquiry stats at a glance and respond faster without leaving the dashboard.
Video Support in Galleries
Upload photos and videos to the same gallery. The Media tab replaces Photos so everything your clients need lives in one clean, unified place.
Set a custom audio track for your gallery presentations. Let the mood carry the moment while clients scroll through your work.
Curate and display your best galleries in a single, shareable showcase. Give clients and prospects a portfolio-grade first impression.
A compact, always-accessible feedback button so you can tell us exactly what to build next. It expands on hover and stays completely out of your way.
