# Donation Station Android App v1.2.0

## This is the release log of Donation Station Android App v1.2.0

### Version Overview

Software version 1.2.0 includes one new feature and a small number of bug fixes and improvements.

#### Changes included in this version:

🔸**Item Ref**: DON-456  
🔸**Item Type**: Bug Fix  
🔸**Item Description**: Double tapping a button to initiate a transaction in any mode resulted in the transaction being immediately declined and reported to the database as a Declined transaction. Any further transactions being initiated within the next 60 seconds would also be Declined and reported as such.  
🔸**New Behaviour**: The app buttons are all locked to single tap making it impossible to initiate a transaction twice.  
🔸**Reasoning behind the change**: A transaction should only defined as Declined once a card is tapped. Any transaction that fails pre-card tap should not be reported as a Declined transaction. The previous behaviour was incorrectly inflating the number of Declined transactions being reported to the database and contributing to a poor user experience.

---

🔸**Item Ref**: DON-437  
🔸**Item Type**: New Feature  
🔸**Item Description**: Gift Aided transactions with Remember My Card made on a Donation Station Pro are carried over to the Donation Station Lite II.  
🔸**New Behaviour**: If a donor has used the Remember My Card feature on a Donation Station Pro to automatically link their Gift Aid details with future donations to the same organisation, transactions made on a Donation Station Lite II to the same organisation now have their Gift Aid data automatically associated with transactions too.  
🔸**Reasoning behind the change**: Cross-product tokenisation will allow for customers to claim Gift Aid on more donations.

---

🔸**Item Ref**: DON-457  
🔸**Item Type**: Improvement  
🔸**Item Description**: Non-secured Wi-Fi networks are now greyed out and disabled in the network list.    
🔸**New Behaviour**: Whilst non-secured networks are still visible in the network list, you are now presented with a message "Unsecured network not supported" if trying to connect to it.  
🔸**Reasoning behind the change**: To ensure that payments are processed in a PCI compliant way, they should be processed via a secured network. Whilst it is the customers responsibility to ensure that networks used are PCI compliant, we have removed non-secure networks from the list of available networks to connect to. Connecting to non-secure networks also increases the risk of connecting to a tokenised network that requires a login via a webpage which is suppressed by the Lite II app.

---

🔸**Item Ref**: DON-459  
🔸**Item Type**: Bug Fix   
🔸**Item Description**: Sometimes the Mobile Data toggle in the Connectivity Sub Menu did not recognise that there was a SIM inserted.  
🔸**New Behaviour**: The Mobile Data toggle in the Connectivity Sub Menu now checks the status in real time rather than just once during app launch. We have also introduced improved connectivity checks in to the first time setup flow, resulting in a check being performed and a spinner shown during SIM card initialisation. The spinner also shows in the top info bar post-reboot whilst the SIM initialises.  
🔸**Reasoning behind the change**: Improves the user experience during first time setup and after a device reboot by knowing when the SIM card is ready to process donations. Connectivity submenu now shows correct SIM status.

---

🔸**Item Ref**: DON-464  
🔸**Item Type**: Improvement  
🔸**Item Description**: American Express card and wallet payments are now automatically declined by the terminal rather than the gateway.  
🔸**New Behaviour**: When using an American Express card on the Lite II, the transaction is automatically declined by the terminal instead of attempting to submit the transaction to the gateway for processing. If an American Express card is attempted to be used, the donor is presented with a message advising to try another card.  
🔸**Reasoning behind the change**: If a Lite II was in offline mode, American Express transactions were previously stored for submission to the gateway later, resulting in lost donations when the transaction was eventually uploaded and submitted to Latpay. The transaction is now declined at the point of use, which allows the donor to try again with a different card.

---

🔸**Item Ref**: DON-467  
🔸**Item Type**: Bug Fix  
🔸**Item Description**: The Lite II app was not checking that a Wi-Fi connection attempt was successful. This was evident when entering incorrect passwords as it would still say Connection Successful if the network connection was attempted.  
🔸**New Behaviour**: The app only determines that the connection was successful if the correct password was entered. We have also added a Back button to the first step of setting the Device PIN during first time setup that allows you to return to the Network Connection step.  
🔸**Reasoning behind the change**: Improved user feedback when entering network passwords. A better user experience allowing you to return and change the network selection after a failed attempt during the first time setup.
