    Key Fixes and Improvements

    • Crash Fix: Resolved a crash related to Firebase in CalendarStore to improve app stability.
    • User Mentions in Japanese: Fixed an issue where users could not be mentioned correctly in Japanese within the Activity Stream. This required using the Japanese Romaji keyboard and ensures proper display of Japanese user names when tagging.
    • Smart Routing for Links: Addressed a problem where List, Form, and Knowledge Base (KB) links did not route correctly to their respective apps.
    • Search Functionality: Corrected an issue where keyword searches returned a blank page instead of showing ‘No results found’ on iOS devices when no matches exist. This aligns iOS behavior with Android.
    • Focus Behavior on Location Cards: Improved page focus consistency when selecting location cards, ensuring the view starts at the top of the page as expected.
    • Icon Display: Fixed the incorrect display of the Question Circle icon in the mobile screen tab to match the intended configuration.
