Church Locator • Fixed a crash on iPhone when zooming into areas with many congregations. • Tap any large cluster — even country-wide ones — to expand it into smaller groups. • Smoother map performance worldwide, with smart clustering at every zoom level. Sign-in & Account • Fixed Google sign-in failures and the spurious error message that appeared after a successful login on Android. • Mistyping your password no longer signs you out of the app. • More reliable handling of authentication callbacks. PDOS Application • The seminar date is now optional and aligned with the official scheduling window. • Clearer form-validation messages. Stability • Fixed an intermittent crash when switching between tabs on Android. • Better behaviour on slow or unreliable connections. • Resolved a number of minor issues reported by users since 1.0.5. Accessibility & Polish • Improved screen-reader support across forms and key screens. • Refined dark mode for better readability. • Small visual fixes.

• Dark mode redesign — neutral charcoal palette that meets WCAG AA contrast on every screen, with brand colours, icons, and dividers clearly visible in low light. • Biometric unlock — sign in once, then use Face ID, Touch ID, or your fingerprint to reopen the app in seconds. • In-app messaging — receive announcements and replies from the MCGI team without leaving the app. • Mobile UX aligned with mfa-mcgi.org — consistent navigation, headings, and branding between phone and web. • Hardened core flows — steadier PDOS form behaviour, more reliable church search, and a more balanced services grid.
