*-nomaps.apk is for F-Droid reference only, it doesn't contain the MapBox API Key and the map preview won't be available

Full Changelog: https://github.com/IacobIonut01/Gallery/compare/v1.1.0.1...2.0.0-beta

This is a dummy release for F-Droid

The only change is the versionCode and Name.

This is the last 1.X release

Thank you everyone for the donations to support the project!

While these are far from mandatory, it proves to me the high interest about this project and brings extra motivation to continue!

Initially I've planned more for the 1.1 release, but after some consideration I think it's best to include all the new features in the next increment (2.x). So after quite some bug-fixes and QOL improvements, I've decided that it's time to release the 1.1 update.
