### 📢 Release Summary

Between **May 13 and July 24**, we shipped **five Fast Ring releases** packed with new features, improvements, and bug fixes. All of that work is rolled into this build, delivering greater stability across the board. We plan to roll it out to every user within **3 – 4 weeks** from today.

## 🗓 Improvements

- **Headers in checklists now support filter logic**  
Header components now honor conditional‑visibility logic, enabling dynamic display.
- **Activity Indicator**  
The spinner on the Work‑Orders screen appears **only** during screen‑lock processes while syncing; behavior after reload‑from‑storage is unchanged.
- **Copy Long‑Text Fields**  
Long‑text area values (up to **32 000 chars**) can now be copied from Work‑Order details.
- **Pick‑List Placeholders**  
Read‑only pick‑list placeholders in modals now use a distinct font style to signal “empty.”
- **Unlimited Text Input**  
Text fields no longer limit the number of lines you can enter.
- **Unlimited Image Selection**  
Browse as many gallery images as you like when attaching photos.
- **Sync‑Closure Status Log**  
Added logging for rare missing‑closure‑status and invalid‑timesheet‑line issues to aid investigation.
- **Licensing & Configuration Check (Login)**  
FieldBuddy Swift now validates required licenses/configs at login. On failure, users see an explanation plus **Retry** and **Cancel** options for quick resolution.

## 🛠 Fixes & Bug Resolutions

- End‑time entries now record correctly when closing a Work Order from Time Registration.
- Fixed an issue that left **Edit** and **Add** buttons inactive when managing sub‑locations.
- Previously, the pop‑up about synchronisation issues was unreliable and easy to miss. It is now more persistent and easier to see. (DONE)
- PDFs and other attachments generated after closing a Work Order now open reliably via **Preview** across all configurations.
- Checklists with no required items now show **100 %** (instead of 0 %).
- The Settings screen now shows the correct app version immediately—no restart needed.
- Previously, validation rules on the Work‑Order‑Closure screen sometimes stopped running after you backgrounded the app; they now continue to work reliably. (DONE)
- Items added via a shared hierarchical IP no longer appear in other Work Orders.
- Resolved the issue that caused changes on the closure screen not to be properly recorded during synchronisation.
- Previously, you could accidentally enter a trailing space when registering odometer readings; it is now removed automatically.
- Previously, previewing a work order from the Time Registration app returned you to the Work Orders list when you navigated back; it now correctly returns you to Time Registration App.
- Blank screen eliminated when navigating back to Time Registration.
- Fixed an issue where emptying dependent picklists caused a white screen.
- Fixed a rendering error that misdirected page loads during timer‑related navigation.
- Dramatically faster load times through optimized rendering.
- Re‑logging in after Salesforce authorization revocation refreshes correctly—no more blank page.
- Message now has proper outline and font size.
- UI elements stay aligned when returning from the background.
- Previously, saving a checklist question needed two taps—one to dismiss the keyboard and another to save; it now takes just one.
- Fixed an issue where clearing comments in checklist questions caused the application to reload.
