Release Notes

What's new in Ascent Headcount. Track updates, bug fixes, and new features across all versions.

v1.3.2 Build 139
  • Fixed the update that froze on a weak connection — losing signal mid-download now shows “Waiting for network” within seconds instead of a stuck progress bar for five minutes
  • Updates resume where they left off when the connection returns, rather than starting the 57 MB download again
  • The back button no longer skips a required update or abandons a download in progress
  • Downloads are checked against the exact expected file size, so a partial download can no longer be treated as complete
  • Update files are reused instead of leaving a new copy behind on every attempt
  • Fixed logging being switched off permanently after a single early failure, which hid update problems from support

v1.3.1 Build 135
  • Admin-controlled mobile app settings — which schools’ students appear in the app and which email domains may sign in are now managed from the admin panel, with no app release required
  • Sign-in is checked against the allowed email domains before authentication
  • Student lists are filtered by the allowed schools server-side, so the rules apply to every app version
