📣 Release Notes – Version 4.1.0 (Major Update)

✨ New: Image Annotation Tools (Users + Admins)
Anywhere users can attach a photo when asking a question, a brand-new image annotation editor is now available.
Admins can also annotate images directly inside the Question Details panel.

🛠 Annotation Features
Users and admins can now:

• ✏️ Draw freehand in multiple colors

• 📝 Add text in customizable colors

• ➡️ Insert arrows with selectable styles & colors

• 🔄 Undo / Redo

• 🧹 Clear all annotations

• 💾 Save changes as a separate edited image

🖼 Photo Handling Logic
To ensure image integrity and clean history:

• Maximum 2 photos per question

• Photo #1: Original (never modified)

• Photo #2: Annotated version

• Re-editing always overwrites only the second, annotated file

• Admins can delete the edited image → system automatically reverts to the original only

• All saved edits export as new JPG/PNG files

• Backend updated to fully support storing and deleting the second image

📦 Required Dependency
This feature uses:
@shopify/react-native-skia

👁 View Original Slide (Posts with Slide Images)
Posts created from the slide library now include a new “eye” icon on the bottom-right of the slide image.

🔍 What it does

• Tapping the icon opens the full-screen slide viewer

• If the user is subscribed → full-screen slide opens immediately

• If not subscribed:

  • Free slide → open normally

  • Premium slide → redirect to the subscription / purchase screen

• The viewer uses the same design and interaction as the existing slide modal (swipe down or tap outside to close).

🔔 Improved Notification Logic
The Notifications tab now behaves exactly as expected:

✅ What’s fixed

• Opening the Notifications tab no longer clears the entire badge count

• Tapping a notification reduces the badge count by exactly 1

• Only the tapped notification is marked as seen

• Background colors were removed for consistency with the app’s visual language

🧪 Previous issues addressed

• Badge disappeared fully on tab open

• Clicking one notification incorrectly marked all as read

🚀 Summary
Version 4.1.0 delivers:

• A complete image annotation system for users & admins

• Enhanced slide-based post viewing with subscription-aware access

• Accurate notification reading behavior

• Multiple UX/UI improvements across the app

This is one of our most powerful and experience-focused updates yet.
