April 2025 (2025-04) focused on improving offline cache management, UI consistency, and translation/date formatting UX, while addressing a critical data ordering bug. Key deliverables include offline caches management and list UX enhancements that optimize performance, clarify menu labels, handle deletion of past events and offline logs, and allow removing caches from other lists to avoid duplicates. A bug fix corrected distance sorting by moving sort logic to CacheComparator and removing an unused MultiComparator, ensuring correct distance ordering. Translation Language Settings and UX Enhancements introduced an automatic language option, preserved the translation source language across restarts, reduced unnecessary re-translation, improved cancellation UX, and safe initialization of language/date preferences. Date/Format UI Enhancements added the ability to display the selected date-format in preferences and refined the Sec-format layout for readability. These changes improve reliability, reduce user friction, and drive business value through faster offline workflows, more accurate data presentation, and smoother localization.
