🛠️ App Improvements

  • Added a fun and simple sound effect for gaining gems in the app, from daily rewards to quests 💎🔊
  • 🎨 Introduced dynamic gradient height behind titles in game preview tiles to make game titles easier to read!
  • Upgraded all login flow assets to be even sharper and more polished ✨
  • Removed nonfunctional arrows from room info on the Room Details screen for a cleaner look!
  • 🔢 Enabled one-time code autofill in keyboard suggestions for a smoother login experience.

🪲Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue causing weirdly small button text sizes by rerendering scalable text 🔤
  • Prevented a bug where users weren’t showing up on cold-boot by ensuring we load and persist local users 👥
  • Averted signed-in users with no wifi to a new no wifi screen so there’s no confusion and users can reinitialize the app then be returned directly to their previous screen! 📶
  • 🔍Found and fixed a few more crashes related to unsafe casting of errors to objects.
  • Added missing onScrollToIndexFailed handlers to prevent crashes 🚫📜
  • Stopped a crash issue when the link email code error wasn't an object by removing unsafe casts.
  • Resolve the problem where scrolling to the bottom wasn’t possible on searchable list screens when the keyboard was open ⌨️
  • Upgraded our login flow health reporting for enhanced bug-busting in the future 📊
  • Addressed an issue where gamers were occasionally added to a room twice on incoming calls by waiting for the user token 📞
  • 🕒🔒Investigated and prevented failures during account activations by accommodating the longer time spent in sign-in state for first-time activations.
  • Removed a 5-second delay before friend’s rooms are joinable which was causing problems where an incoming call was flashing briefly before the call interface rendered.
  • ✅ Tweaked guest verification to behave more reliably when singing in takes longer than usual.
  • Thwarted a race condition that could trap users in onboarding by ensuring the overlay loads at the right time 🚀
  • Prevented a rare problem where gamers could get stuck right after entering their verification codes 🔐
  • 👾🚫Blocked unnecessary gremlin screen from appearing when logging out and immediately logging back in!
