Release version 1.17.07 includes the following improvements and bug fixes:

• Improve add and edit artwork layout
• Use a vertical layout for artwork sections, in readiness for horizontal swiping between collections and exhibitions
• Show loading indicators for synchronised images
• Show slow connection warning
• Update My artworks empty state placeholder
• Improve input fields - Increase tappable area and show clear boundaries
• Improve settings layout

• Added sensible names for iPad grid card sizes
• Refactored tabs and made sure they are always tappable
• Refined navigation UI and placed layout options behind ellipsis
• Overall improvements to grid layout
• Fixed a layout bug that meant the clear search button was always in the wrong place
• Made sure the password hint text is visible in night mode

• Try again to reset app clips when opening a new artwork
• Use the same versioning for App Store as we do in Xcode

• Reset app clips when opening a new artwork. This should prevent the app clip opening a blank AR session if an AR session was active in an app clip before viewing the new artwork. Again, this is impossible to test in development due to limitations with how app clips are developed. However the app review team have been extremely fast in processing these updates. Thank you!

• Attempt to force the loading of artwork images when each new app clip loads (which is not easy to test without publishing the app)
• Improve grid layout across all devices
• General house keeping
