Functionality fixes and session stability improvements.

Important bug fixes

This version is based on an updated video platform that improves session stability and provides in-session experience enhancements, including: Updated user interface layout. Virtual backgrounds. In-session chat. ⁠Ability to deflect incoming phone calls during a telemedicine visit. Some in-session features may not be available in your session - the availability is controlled by the medical practice.

Improved Stability and Performance This update resolves connectivity issues experienced by some users on iOS 17 or higher. (Note: We recommend updating your device to the latest iOS version for optimal performance). We've also made improvements to address screen blurring issues that could occur when using the app. Enhanced Telehealth Experience We've fixed an issue that previously interrupted telehealth sessions when receiving a phone call. This ensures a smoother and more reliable experience for your virtual consultations. Focus on Future Innovation To ensure we continue to provide the best possible experience, we are no longer supporting iOS 13. We encourage users to update their devices to a newer iOS version to take advantage of the latest features and security updates.

Updated App icon. General enhancements and bug fixes.

Mute Call: Practitioners can mute users during a session. When they do, users will see a notification.

Pin Participant: Ability to pin up to two individuals in a call, allowing you to see them side by side. Users can unpin a user by clicking on the pin icon or by going to the context menu. Videocall layout: On an iPhone, Patients will see a similar videocall interface as the iOS Provider App. Patients will now be able to see all the users by scrolling through the thumbnails at the top of the screen. A 'Doctors Bag' icon is displayed next to the provider's name to help patients easily identify providers on the call. A 'Globe' icon is displayed next to an Interpreter's name to help patients easily identify interpreters on the call. In a group call when a patient joins later in the call, they will now see Provider's video on their main view

Improve user notification in a session: At the beginning of a session, a user will now see 'Connecting...' with a spinner animation until the other user has successfully joined the call. If the remote user is unable to join the call due to unknown reasons, the application will show 'Unable to join' message after 30 seconds. UI enhancements: A user can change other participant's video to 'Fit to frame' or 'Fill frame'. Fill frame will crop the other participant's video and fill it within the available frame. Fit to frame will fit the participant's video within the available frame. Dynamic localization: The iOS App can now dynamically localize the text in the App based on the language sent to the practice. This brings parity between the web/browser and iOS app experience. If the practice is set to a different language, then the iOS App will default to the language set to the device. If the iOS App does not support the language set to the device, then it defaults to English.
