"Today we are releasing Krita 5.2.13! This is a bugfix release containing a number of important Android fixes, courtesy of Carsten Hartenfels, our new Android Maintainer. The release also includes a security fix that affected the work with TGA files."

As always, please feel free to check out the full release notes here: https://krita.org/en/posts/2025/krita-5.2.13-released/

Thank you all for your continued support!

[p]Hi all! [/p][p]Today we're releasing Krita 5.2.10! This is a bug fix release. After this release we will focus on releasing Krita 5.3.0, the next feature release, and Krita 6.0.0, the first release based on Qt6. [/p]

[p]\[!NOTE] Note for users of keyboards with more than 12 function keys. Programs like WeChat regularly inject a spurious F22 keypress to get focus. From 5.2.10, Krita will by default ignore any function key higher than F12. If you have a keyboard or other device sending such keypresses, you can enable them by adding the following line to your kritarc file: ... ignoreHighFunctionKeys=false ...[/p]

[p]We'll spare you all the details for now right now, but you can find the full list of changes and fixes over on the official Krita website. [/p][p]And finally, as always, we'd like to thank all of you here on Steam who have supported the Krita project over the years, allowing us to make great and accessible digital painting and animation tools for human artists all over the world.[/p][p]Thank you![/p]

Hi all!

We're back once again to announce the release of Krita 5.2.9, a bugfix release which should greatly improve Krita's stability and functionality in various ways.

As always you can read all about what has changes in our full release notes here on our official website.

Thanks again for supporting Krita, and happy drawing!

Hey all, super quick update!

Some Krita 5.2.5 users were running into a bad crash, and this bug was occurring enough that we decided it would be best to do a hotfix release with the appropriate fix.

As such, we're releasing Krita 5.2.6 as a hotfix patch for 5.2.5's crashing problem, and we're publishing it here on Steam even before the official update so that those of you who get automatic updates are not inadvertently exposed to crashes when working.

That's all for now, thanks again for your support and please feel free to reach out to us (via a bug report on bugs.kde.org, on #krita on @ irc.libera.chat on IRC, on the Krita-Artists community forum, or elsewhere) to let us know if you run into any problems with the latest version of Krita.

Emmet, on behalf of the Krita Development Team

Krita 5.2.5 is here, bringing over 50 bugfixes since 5.2.3 (5.2.4 was a Windows-specific hotfix). Major fixes have been done to audio playback, transform mask calculation and more!

In addition to the core team, special thanks to Maciej Jesionowski, Ralek Kolemios, Freya Lupen, Michael Genda, Rasyuqa A. H., Simon Ra and Sam James for a variety of fixes!

As always, here's a link to the full patch notes over on the official Krita website.

And finally, a major shout out and a big thank you to all of our users here on Steam for your support! This project relies heavily on funding through Steam in order to hire developers to write features, fix bugs, and handle reports and submissions from our wonderful community, and so we really, truly couldn't do it without you!

Thanks.
The Krita Development Team.
