Important highlights from this release

Mobile Apps

Android security

We are updating the minimum supported Android operating system version our apps support to v9 (Android Pie, API 28) from version 6 (Android Marshmallow, API 23). This guarantees enhanced app security as we are taking advantage of Google’s new security features in newer Android operating systems.

Future releases of our apps will further optimize security by integrating even deeper with available security features.

iOS deprecation warning

We are deprecating the “Public User Registration” module along with the sign in with Google and Facebook functionality. This currently impacts zero customers. It will also improve app security and privacy.

Additional highlights include:

  • eGuide expiration modifications
  • New assessments and quiz data points
  • Multi-language user interface
  • New user profile page
  • New module access code experience
  • Over 80 bug fixes

Client Portal

  • Mitigated and fixed over 300 vulnerabilities
  • Architecture 2.0
  • eGuide expiration
  • Data collected in the Forms module can now be exported.
  • Collecting new data points in Assessments and Quiz
  • Over 50 bug fixes
