What is Immich?

Immich's 3.4 candidate brings passkeys to the phone app

Immich is in its v3.4 release-candidate cycle. rc.1 added passkey sign-in, built-in backups through FUTO Backups (restic-based), JPEG XL support and mobile tags, with a batch of security fixes; rc.2 was bug fixes only. rc.3 on 6 November extends passkeys to the mobile apps and improves the backup integration.

What is Teable?

Teable adds Get Started guides to templates and shareable artifacts from the CLI.

Teable ships near-daily. Early November brought impact previews before schema changes, owner-run Routines, self-hosted app domains and a read-only MCP query tool, then filter-based bulk updates and structured queries in Pi sessions. The November 13 release adds interactive Get Started guides for templates, formula-based metrics in structured queries, artifact sharing links from the CLI and API, app previews as a selected user, multi-field record search, and halves the default concurrent Routine runs per space to 5.

Immich's 3.4 candidate brings passkeys to the phone app

◆ Current state

Immich is in its v3.4 release-candidate cycle. rc.1 added passkey sign-in, built-in backups through FUTO Backups (restic-based), JPEG XL support and mobile tags, with a batch of security fixes; rc.2 was bug fixes only. rc.3 on 6 November extends passkeys to the mobile apps and improves the backup integration.

◆ Where it's heading

Each Immich cycle runs three or four candidates in a few weeks, and 3.4 is adding the account and data-safety features a self-hosted photo library needs before households rely on it. Passkeys reaching mobile completes the sign-in change across clients.

◆ Prediction

A stable v3.4.0 is the likely next entry, with the draft release notes already published.

Teable adds Get Started guides to templates and shareable artifacts from the CLI.

◆ Current state

Teable ships near-daily. Early November brought impact previews before schema changes, owner-run Routines, self-hosted app domains and a read-only MCP query tool, then filter-based bulk updates and structured queries in Pi sessions. The November 13 release adds interactive Get Started guides for templates, formula-based metrics in structured queries, artifact sharing links from the CLI and API, app previews as a selected user, multi-field record search, and halves the default concurrent Routine runs per space to 5.

◆ Where it's heading

Teable is making its agent-facing pieces (queries, CLI, Routines) consistent with the rest of the product: query expressions now reuse formula syntax, and CLI commands are regrouped with old ones deprecated. Templates with guided setup point toward packaging finished apps for others to install.

◆ Prediction

Expect the deprecated standalone CLI commands to be removed in the next release, as announced, and more template and app-sharing features built on the new guides.
