1.5.36 4 hr ago
Fixed an issue where the app could become stuck on the launch screen after upgrading from older versions. iPads with large amounts of historical data could fail to start due to a lengthy data migration running during launch. This migration now runs in the background, allowing the app to launch normally.
1.5.35 24 Mar
We've resolved a number of issues reported through crash diagnostics to make LIFTUPP more reliable, particularly during synchronisation:
- Fixed crashes during Data Recovery sync — Users running the data recovery process could experience a crash when processing large numbers of assessments. This has been resolved.
- Fixed a crash that could occur during routine sync — An intermittent issue where the app could crash mid-sync due to stale internal data has been addressed.
- Fixed a crash when navigating to student profiles — Quickly tapping on a student while a previous screen was still loading could cause a crash. The app now handles this gracefully.
- Fixed a crash when opening assessments — A similar rapid-navigation issue when opening assessment forms has been resolved.
- Fixed a crash on the sign-in screen — An edge case when loading clinic sessions has been corrected.
- Fixed a crash when viewing student details — An issue when displaying special attention indicators for certain students has been resolved.
- Fixed a crash when adding a new patient — An intermittent issue when setting up the patient log screen has been addressed.
- Allow database & log on iPad to be uploaded from request on portal
We recommend all users update to this version at their earliest convenience.
