버전 2.2.5 업데이트 내용 이번 업데이트는 Android 사용자를 위한 중요한 안정성 개선을 포함합니다: 앱 내 업데이트를 적용할 때 앱이 멈추는 오류를 수정했습니다. 기존에는 업데이트 팝업에서 "지금 적용"을 누르면 Android에서 앱이 응답하지 않아 사용자가 직접 앱을 종료하고 다시 실행해야 했습니다. 이 문제가 완전히 해결되었습니다. 심사 참고사항 (Apple 심사팀용): 이번 업데이트는 앱 내부의 JavaScript 재로드 방식(expo-updates reloadAsync)을 네이티브 프로세스 완전 재시작 방식(react-native-restart)으로 교체합니다. 새로운 네이티브 모듈이 추가되어 새 바이너리 빌드가 필요합니다. 앱의 핵심 기능, 권한, 사용자 화면에는 변경 사항이 없습니다.
