Castor Connect 2025.1.0
Major release date: 10th February 2025 (iOS & Android)
Castor has made a number of improvements to core functionality to extend functionality and improve performance, and security.
- NRS field types are now supported in Castor Connect
- Partial dates are now supported - consistent with their implementation in web surveys on CDMS
- Korean 🇰🇷, Danish 🇩🇰, Turkish 🇹🇷 and Hebrew 🇮🇱 are now available as core languages in the app
- Exclusion triggers in surveys are now supported in-app
- Users of the EQ-5D variant of the slider will now see the text in the health box capitalized
- iPad : Resolved an issue where the PIN dialog on returning to the app was not obfuscating entered data as expected
- An additional control has been implemented to prevent data entry when participants ‘time travel’ to the past
- Participants who are not on the correct date/time based on a combination of checking against Castor's servers and a sequential check will not be able to enter data until they have corrected the date/time on their device - this check will be performed each time the participant attempts to open a survey
- Coverage is included for travel and daylight saving, ensuring participants are not prevented from entering data due to simple, expected time zone changes or alterations
