Castor Connect 2024.1.0.0
Major release date: 15th July 2024 (iOS & Android)
Castor has made several improvements to core functionality to improve performance and security.
- We have refactored API interactions between the app and core platform throughout to improve performance
- Functionality remains identical, but users should experience significant performance improvements on the home screen and when loading surveys
- The activation and security system used for biometric access to the app (Touch ID, Face ID, etc.) has been updated to maintain compatibility with new and future versions of iOS and Android
- This update will impact existing users on successful update of the app, requiring them to reset their biometric security - full details are included in an article here
- We have resolved an issue where users who left the app open on the ‘My Data’ screen after successfully syncing data manually found that the ‘Sync successful’ dialog was overlapping PIN entry when returning to the app
