Fixes an issue with deleting photos

Fixes an issue with multi-photo selection and Spring Challenge feed card.

A few bug fixes and speed enhancements.

Fixed in this build: 1. Tapping ••• no longer touches your photo library The ••• menus on lists and sightings were loading your entire photo library in the background just to open the menu, which is why the app asked for photo access at odd moments and could close itself on phones with large libraries. Nothing reads the library now until you actually open the photo picker. Please test: tap ••• on a list and on a sighting. No photo permission prompt should appear, and the app should not close. Then open the photo picker properly and confirm photos and albums still load normally. 2. Android photo uploads no longer come out blank Photos uploaded from Android could be stored corrupted and show as blank frames for everyone. Affected uploads are now rejected rather than silently saved unreadable. Please test (Android): upload a batch of photos to a list or sighting, then view them from another device or on the web. 3. Atlas cards stuck on "Submitting" Cards that had actually reached SABAP2 could stay showing Submitting in the app forever. The app now re-checks a change it had to skip instead of moving past it.

This update fixes several important issues from recent releases: - Fixed the app failing to open on older iPhones (iPhone 8 and X era devices running iOS 15 or 16). If your app has not been opening, this update resolves it and all your sightings are safe. - Fixed photos uploaded while offline appearing blank once synced. - Fixed photos becoming stuck and never uploading if the app was closed mid-upload. - Restored Sign in with Apple, which was not working in recent versions. - Fixed an issue where a failed photo could block the app after updating from an older version. - General stability improvements around syncing and photo uploads.

Fixed an issue with failed photo & list uploads

Fixed a bug with Apple Sign-in

Our biggest update yet. Here's what's new in 1.4.3: SIGHTING NOTES Add a note when you log a sighting: the story behind the bird. Your note appears on the sighting and in the community feed. COMMENTS You can now comment on any sighting. The first comment shows right in the feed, so the conversation starts where the birding happens. A NEW PHOTO GALLERY Your birding photos in a beautiful new gallery. Tap any photo to jump to its sighting, and tap map thumbnails to open sightings directly. MULTI-PHOTO UPLOAD Add several photos to a sighting or list in one go, with clearer upload progress and feedback. MORE WAYS TO LOG • Log an Unknown Bird and resolve the species later • Duplicate pin: log another species at the same spot, straight from a sighting's menu • Choose English or Afrikaans bird names, with scientific names as a secondary option A CLEANER, FULLER SCREEN Headers and the tab bar now slide away as you scroll, giving your lists, maps and feed the whole screen. Areas and profiles got the same treatment. LEADERBOARDS Your row now sticks while you scroll, and you can filter leaderboards to just the birders you follow. EXPLORE, SHARPER Redesigned filter pills, better pins and thumbnails, smoother map and sheet behaviour, and photos that lead you straight to the sighting. FIELD IMPROVEMENTS • Smarter, battery-friendly GPS acquisition • Gentle haptic feedback throughout the app (tuned to be subtle on Android) • Faster feed thumbnails and general performance work AND PLENTY OF FIXES Sturdier offline sign-in, profile loading hardening, keyboard and layout fixes in the sighting editor, duplicate-free feeds and search, and many more small improvements. Happy birding. See you in the feed!

Faster startup when you're offline: the app now opens straight into your account without waiting for the network. • Slow connection warning: you'll get a heads-up when your connection is too weak to sync reliably. • Unfollow now sticks — fixed a bug where unfollowed users could reappear. • Group challenges now show correct species counts across all group-based cards. • Nearby targets: the search box clears after you add a bird, so you can quickly add the next one. • Sync reliability improvements for list geometry and offline session restore.

Improved offline support for longer offline birding missions. A few speed improvements and bug fixes too.

A major upgrade under the hood. We've rebuilt how the app stores and syncs your data, making offline performance faster and more reliable than ever. Sign-in is smoother with native Apple and Google login, and a new welcome flow makes it easier for new birders to get started. Photos load faster and use less storage on your device, sighting details now show community photos inline, and atlas list editing is smarter with improved date and protocol handling. Area leaderboards now highlight the most recent activity first, and group syncing is more dependable across the board.

Bug fixes and a few performance improvements. Including, fixing a bug where Groups tab only shows if there is an active Group.

Fixed a few bugs and made some performance improvements.

- Improved atlassing tools for smoother and more accurate surveys - Faster loading for areas and birder profiles - More reliable offline syncing when you’re back online
