  1. 1.1.21Not yet published on the stores

    More screen space: cleaner UEFN Tools, slimmer navigation bar

    • ImprovedThe UEFN Tools page no longer shows a title or extra bar at the top of the screen, leaving more room for your creations.
    • ImprovedThe navigation bar at the bottom of the screen is now slimmer throughout the app.
    • ImprovedA red dot now appears on "Dashboard" in the account menu when you have unread notifications.
    • FixedWhen an app update was ready, the "Restart" banner sometimes only appeared after leaving and reopening the app — it now shows as soon as you come back to the app.
    • FixedIn the 2D text editor in UEFN Tools, the clock and icons at the top of the screen no longer overlap the tabs, and the bottom of the settings panel is no longer stuck behind the navigation bar.
    • ImprovedThe 2D text editor now has a single "Download" button (cropped to the text) — the fixed 1920×1080 full-frame export was removed.
    • FixedThe notification indicator in the account menu could distort the menu (squished text) when it showed a number — replaced with a simple dot, no number.
    • FixedIn "My creations" in the thumbnail generator, the Download button now confirms the image was saved to your gallery.
    • ImprovedThe thumbnail generator is visible without being signed in: you are only asked to sign in when you generate, and the credit top-up opens right away if your balance is too low.
    • NewAds in the app: native ads in the map feed and on map pages, and an optional short video before a download (2D text, AI thumbnails). On first launch you choose to accept or refuse personalized ads (changeable in the Profile).
    • NewNew “Ad-free” option: a one-time purchase, tied to your account, removes all ads from the app (found in the Profile).
  2. 1.1.18Not yet published on the stores

    New tool: 2D text editor

    • NewIn UEFN Tools, a new "2D text editor" tab: compose one or more styled texts (font, size, solid or gradient color, curved text, outline, shadow, halo, rotation, skew, mirror...) over a background image or a blank canvas, with magnetic snapping to help center them, then download the result (cropped to the text, or full-frame 1920×1080) to your gallery. The canvas always stays visible at the top of the screen while you adjust the style, and text too large to fit is automatically shrunk so it's never cut off. Downloaded images no longer show the selection outline or the canvas border, and the background now stays properly transparent when no background image is set.
  3. 1.1.17Not yet published on the stores

    Generator: fixed download and truncated button text

    • FixedThe "Download" button in the thumbnail generator now really saves the image to your gallery, instead of opening the share menu.
    • FixedSome button text in the generator could get cut off on narrow screens or with a large font size — fixed.
    • FixedThe "Fortnite skin" and "Overlay text" field labels in the generator were too long and got cut off — shortened.
  4. 1.1.16Not yet published on the stores

    Featured maps in the feed and a Campaign tab

    • ImprovedFeatured maps now appear directly at the top of the feed, mixed in with the others, instead of in a separate "Featured" banner.
    • NewNew "Campaign" tab in the dashboard: your active and past featured campaigns, with the views, likes and favorites they earned, and a button to start a new one (points, podium days, or a purchase).
    • FixedYour AI credit balance now updates right after a purchase, without needing to restart the app.
  5. 1.1.16Not yet published on the stores

    Usernames, favorites, alerts and creator stats

    • NewChoose your username and avatar: that's what others see, never your real name.
    • NewFavorites: the bookmark on each map sets it aside, and the « Favorites » tab in the feed replaces « My maps » (your maps stay in the dashboard).

    • ImprovedAfter submitting a map: you see the points and XP earned (or what you'll earn once it's approved), how many maps can still reward you today, and a button to submit another map.
    • NewNew Shop page, with tabs per category (AI credits, featuring, cursors) and a Points/Purchase switch: redeem your points (400 points a day, up to 3 days a month) for featuring one of your maps, use your podium days, or check the money purchases, coming soon.

    • NewRewards: earn points and XP when one of your maps is approved or when you verify a creator name. Track your rank (from Bronze to Legend), your badges and your history in the new « Rewards » tab of the dashboard.
