Version 0.10: Beta MR2 (Early Access)

[BenHenning]

Overview

This is the second openly available release of the Oppia Android app. Anyone can opt into the beta program and install the app on their Android device. Burndown milestone: https://github.com/oppia/oppia-android/milestone/45.

This release brings the following features & changes:

• New event instrumentation to help the team better track noteworthy conversions for learners new to a particular lesson or the app as a whole.
• Proper support for Android 12 (though some telemetry has been disabled in this release for API 31 devices).
• A variety of lesson fixes, including ensuring that all translated images for Brazilian Portuguese correctly show up now.
• A better upgrade flow for users who have previous progress saved from an earlier alpha version of the app.
• Removal of languages that are only partially supported to ensure a more cohesive and complete user experience.
• Various bug fixes, including: ensuring cases when a topic has to be "unpublished" don't result in the app failing to load any topics, better hint naming, and hiding some profile & admin settings that don't actually do anything today.
• Significant improvements to multiple points in a user's onboarding flow, including a clarified redesign of the topic screen.
• Improved accessibility and dark mode support.

Note that this release only has app & content translations for English and Brazilian Portuguese. More languages will be added in future releases once they are ready.

The production version of this release is set to expire on 1 May 2023.
