What to Expect After Updating (24.5 → 24.6.7848)
-
Face detection improvements may trigger additional scanning. You might see optimized images re-sync so face tags can be updated.
-
Apple Photos libraries are re-scanned for better compatibility. If possible, update the desktop that has your Apple Photos library first.
-
Updating Apple Photos only from mobile device? Keep it plugged-in to a power source, with Mylio Photos in the foreground. If iCloud communication is required, it can take time due to server limits.
-
-
External drives may require a quick upgrade. If you see a banner on the device in the Sync panel, connect the drive and let it complete.
We appreciate your patience while these background tasks finish—they’re part of delivering a more reliable experience.

Be sure to UPDATE the app on all your devices
Reminder of minimum system requirements
Mylio strives to balance security, performance, and stability when setting our minimum operating system requirements. Due to recent updates from OS manufacturers, we have increased these requirements. These new requirements were announced at the end of 2023, and are now being enforced with this release.
-
Windows Computers and Tablets: Windows 10 version 21H2 (64-bit) or later; Windows 11
-
Windows ARM – Surface X Pro: Windows 10 version 21H2 (64-bit) or later; Windows 11
-
Android Phones and Tablets: Android 11 or later
-
Macintosh Computers: macOS 11 or later

While older devices can still run previous versions of Mylio Photos, this will change in upcoming updates. Our next major update, expected this winter, will require a database upgrade, which older devices will not support.
Please ensure your device is upgraded to a supported OS to avoid disruption. If your device can’t be updated due to manufacturer limitations, consider replacing it with a newer or refurbished model that meets the minimum requirements.
