Updates & Fixes

Mobile

Fix for App Freeze on Permission Change

Resolved an issue causing the app to freeze when users change location permissions in the background. This fix ensures a smoother experience by preventing unexpected app behavior during background permission adjustments.

Biometrics Toggle from Change Password Screen

We've resolved an issue where users were unable to enable or disable the biometrics feature directly from the change password screen across. This fix enhances security customization by allowing seamless toggle control of biometric settings without navigating away from the password management interface.

Internal Browser Support for reCAPTCHA

Our internal browser within the Paytronix app has been updated to support reCAPTCHA, resolving the issue experienced by users when attempting to upload receipts for loyalty points.

Rewards Balance Format Validation in Android MXB Dashboard

The My Rewards Component now ensures consistent rewards balance formatting across platforms by implementing a {{0.00}} validation standard in the Android Dashboard. Moving forward, when the user has no reward balances, the My Rewards component will be hidden from the Dashboard.

Gift Card Payment Improvements 

We've resolved multiple issues affecting gift card transactions on the branded app to ensure a smoother checkout experience. Fixes include:

      • Persistent Payment Error: Users previously had to tender twice due to an error when selecting "Gift/Loyalty" as a payment method. Orders now complete successfully on the first attempt.
      • App Crash on Gift Card Payment: The app no longer crashes when selecting "gift card" as a payment method, particularly on iPhone 15 Pro Max. Payment screen inconsistencies across devices have also been addressed.
      • Gift Card Balance Display Fix: A fix was resolved where intermittently the gift card balance was not appearing on the tip screen.
