- The widget explorer is now usable on Wayland with KDE Frameworks 5.66.

- A search field and filter combobox has been added to the System Settings Plasma Style page.

- Via the properties dialog for folders is now an option for exploring folders within Filelight, the graphical disk usage analyzer part of KDE.

- Dolphin's SVN plug-in now monitors and lets the user commit newly-added files.

- Gwenview added a toolbar button in the full-screen mode.

- Various Elisa music player improvements.
