What's new in Pixel Flow

Pixel Flow release notes track product updates, workflow improvements, and documentation changes for the Chrome image workflow extension.

v1.0.7

  • Added official website and Chrome extension integration: the website pricing page can open the Pixel Flow extension side panel and go directly to the PRO upgrade page.

v1.0.6

  • Enhanced the Excel information exported with image download packages. Full-info exports now include more readable file sizes, custom tag names, AI generation judgment, AIGC parameter summaries, GPS coordinates, camera details, and editing software information.
  • Improved exported Excel tag data by showing custom tag names instead of tag IDs, making exported files easier to organize and review.
  • Improved the resilience of favorite image metadata analysis so a failed single-image analysis no longer blocks other images in the same batch.
  • Simplified the password login form by removing the invite code field from password sign-in while keeping invite code entry in registration and email-code related login flows.
  • Fixed an issue where favoriting a single image could fail to trigger Pro metadata analysis, causing incomplete image detail or export information.
  • Fixed cases where some favorite image metadata analysis failures could leave items stuck in a waiting or processing state.

v1.0.5

  • Added an invite code rewards guide link to all login methods so users can open the invitation documentation directly from the invite code field.
  • Improved Google reverse image search availability checks by applying the same upload size limit across scan results, favorites, and detail views.
  • Improved Google reverse image search handling for public image URLs, temporary upload fallback, and known hosts that require temporary upload.
  • Updated the disabled Google reverse image search button state and tooltip copy when an image is too large to search.
  • Fixed cases where local, private, or non-public URLs could be treated as valid Google reverse image search URLs.
  • Fixed oversized Google reverse image search requests being attempted before the UI could block unsupported images.
  • Fixed invite code documentation links opened from extension content by supporting the newer open-url message action.

v1.0.4

  • Improved active tab handling in the side panel so reactivating the same browser tab keeps the current scan filters instead of resetting the image list view.
  • Centralized Free and PRO quota rules for collections, custom tags, per-image tags, and batch downloads to keep quota behavior consistent across scanning, library, settings, and background services.
  • Fixed a same-tab activation case where scan filters could be cleared unexpectedly when the side panel refreshed the current tab state.
  • Fixed backup import handling so imported collection items skip invalid or duplicate records and respect the current user's collection quota.
  • Fixed quota enforcement consistency for custom tag creation, tag selection, and batch download limits.

v1.0.3

  • Improved the side panel image scanning lifecycle so opening or reactivating the side panel explicitly triggers a fresh page image scan.
  • Fixed an issue where reopening the side panel after closing it could fail to scan images on the current page.
  • Fixed cases where an active tab could be marked as scanned before the content script performed a new scan.

v1.0.2

  • Improved image metadata fetching by bypassing browser cache, so image detail data reflects the latest source file more reliably.
  • Improved original and standard image resolution handling by falling back to captured source dimensions when decoded metadata is incomplete.
  • Improved PNG AIGC metadata parsing by reading PNG tEXt data exposed under ihdr, including parameters and workflow fields.
  • Updated the English filter label from Common Filter to Filter.
  • Fixed cases where PNG images generated by AI tools could be detected as AIGC but failed to show parsed generation parameters.
  • Fixed image detail badges so empty width, height, file size, or file name values no longer render incomplete metadata labels.
  • Fixed missing dimension display for some multi-resolution images when browser decoding does not return width or height.

v1.0.1

  • Improved image scanning compatibility for pages served from IP-based addresses with ports, such as http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx.
  • Improved image identification stability for repeated scans, preview, and deduplication.
  • Fixed JPEG filtering on the capture page so .jpg and .jpeg images are included correctly.

v1.0.0

  • Initial public release of Pixel Flow.
  • Chrome side panel workflow for scanning images on the current page.
  • Smart filtering by format, dimensions, aspect ratio, source, and responsive image behavior.
  • Image library with custom tags, multi-select actions, and local archive workflows.
  • Image detail views for dimensions, format, source context, EXIF-style metadata, AI fingerprint signals, and AIGC parameters where available.
  • Controlled download workflows with source records, download history, and export support.
  • English and Chinese documentation for installation, scanning, metadata review, library workflows, accounts, support, and responsible use.
