- It used to be too easy to drop a template—that yellow button was hard to resist. Now it’s slightly more difficult to inadvertently drop a recurring rescue when you just want to request a sub. - We’ve eradicated the last vestige of no-contact imperatives in our app. (We still love our introverted volunteers!) - Our app went rogue, practically extorting you for notification permissions in exchange for access to certain rescues. Our engineers have successfully neutralized the threat. - Mobile users on Apple devices running on older OS versions (iOS 16 or older) weren’t able to use the app, but now they can! Planned obsolescence just isn’t our bag, baby.

Fixes an issue where not enabling push notifications prevented the map from loading by default.
