+# Phokus v0.1.1
+
+> Draft for the GitHub Release body. Fill in the checksums and trim as needed.
+
+**Phokus is a local-first desktop media library for Windows** — point it at
+your image and video folders and it builds a fast, searchable gallery with
+thumbnails, semantic search, visual discovery, AI tagging, and duplicate
+cleanup. Everything is processed on your machine; nothing is uploaded.
+
+This is a quality-of-life release on top of 0.1.0: a new in-app folder
+picker, themes, smoother scrolling on large libraries, and a batch of fixes.
+If you're updating from 0.1.0, the built-in updater will fetch this for you.
+
+## Install / update
+
+- **Updating from 0.1.0:** the in-app updater will offer 0.1.1 on launch — one
+  click downloads, installs, and relaunches.
+- **Fresh install:** download `Phokus_0.1.1_x64-setup.exe` below and run it.
+  **Windows SmartScreen will warn** that the publisher is unrecognized — this
+  build is **not code-signed**. Click **More info → Run anyway**.
+- Requires **Windows 10/11**. WebView2 is fetched automatically if missing.
+
+NVIDIA users wanting GPU embedding speed can use the
+`Phokus_0.1.1_x64-cuda-setup.exe` variant instead (larger download; bundles the
+CUDA runtime DLLs).
+
+## Highlights
+
+### Added
+- **Custom multi-folder picker** — navigate and stage folders from multiple
+  locations and add them in one go, replacing the native OS dialog.
+- **Themes** — Phokus, Subtle Light, and Conventional Dark chrome, with an
+  inline theme picker in first-run onboarding.
+- **Timeline scrubber** — a year/month rail to jump anywhere in the library.
+- **Folder reordering** in the sidebar (drag-and-drop or keyboard), persisted,
+  plus A–Z / Z–A / Custom sort for the Libraries list.
+- **Video playback settings** — autoplay-in-lightbox and start-muted toggles.
+- **Rebuild semantic index** maintenance action — fixes "dimension mismatch"
+  search errors after switching CLIP models.
+- Locate and filter images with failed AI-tagging jobs.
+
+### Changed
+- Gallery grid and Duplicate Finder list are now row-virtualised — large
+  libraries and large result sets (5,000+ pairs) scroll without lag.
+- Settings now open on General by default.
+
+### Fixed
+- **AVIF thumbnails** now generate correctly (routed through bundled FFmpeg);
+  previously-failed AVIF jobs are requeued on startup.
+- Video embedding jobs no longer churn through failed states before their
+  thumbnail exists; previously-failed ones are requeued.
+- Timeline scrolling is smooth on large libraries (per-row virtualisation);
+  background batches no longer re-sort the whole loaded set.
+- Numerous Subtle Light theme readability/parity fixes.
+
+See the [changelog](https://github.com/JezzWTF/phokus/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md)
+for the full list.
