Bug Fixes

  • App Upgrade Policy Enhancement - Fixed issue where the app upgrade policy was not properly enforcing version requirements.

  • Form Component Colour Rendering Fix - Resolved Android-specific rendering problems where custom text colours in form label components would not display properly.

  • Android Keyboard Interface Improvements - Fixed keyboard overlay issue where the on-screen keyboard would cover text input fields during activity commenting, preventing users from seeing their typed content.

  • Visual issue on visit screen - Fixed an issue where the date banner incorrectly displayed "Today" instead of the actual visit date

  • Form Field Performance Fix - Addressed ANR (Application Not Responding) behaviour that occurred when filling form fields, improving app responsiveness and user experience during form completion.
