v2.0.7 — Gating Fixes, Session Consistency, and Reset Reliability

This release focuses on stability, correctness, and consistency across core kiosk flows.

Fixes

Resolved UI gating issue where certain screens could render incorrectly due to binding scope errors
Fixed owner setup flow to use a one-shot observer, preventing duplicate execution paths
Standardized session persistence (bestby_state) across the entire app
Corrected backup/data extraction rules to exclude session state while preserving business data

Improvements

App reset now fully clears all relevant state:
session (bestby_state)
owner/device binding (device_owner)
idle tracking (idle_prefs)
user/default preferences
local database
Improved consistency between runtime behavior and backup/restore behavior

Result

More predictable kiosk locking/unlocking behavior
Reliable clean reset behavior
Safer restore behavior without leaking session/auth state

v2.0.6 — Layout, Navigation, and Scanner Fixes

Bug fixes and layout corrections across multiple screens.

Changes:

• ProductDetails: fixed barcode scanner launching as camera on first
  camera permission grant; added pendingBarcodeScan flag to route
  permission result to correct launcher
• MainActivity + AdministratorActivity: wired About, Privacy, and
  Instructions overflow menu items that were silently unhandled
• AdministratorActivity menu: added Privacy and Instructions items
• In-app Instructions: added Ownership Transfer section
• EmployeeList PIN dialogs: suppressed password manager autofill popup
• layout-sw600dp/activity_product_details.xml: reduced vertical spacing
  to fix button overflow on tablet portrait validation targets
• All manual insets listeners: expanded type mask to include
  displayCutout() alongside systemBars() for Android 16 compatibility
• Absorbs v2.0.5 internal test change (PIN autofill suppression)

v2.0.4 — Insets Fix

Fixes content rendering behind the status bar on all employee/product screens.

Root cause: BaseEmployeeRequiredActivity was requesting inset redispatch from
the window decor view after onGatePassed(), rather than from the actual root
view that owns the listener. Each affected screen now calls
requestApplyInsets() on its own bound root immediately after listener
registration, matching the stable pattern used by admin screens.

Also removes a stale fitsSystemWindows="true" from the default
activity_main.xml portrait layout.

Affected screens: MainActivity, ProductDetails, ProductSearch,
ProductList, ProductReport

v2.0.3 — Layout Insets Fix

Fixes a bug where content on the main screen and all product screens
rendered behind the status bar on launch.

Root cause: the window insets listener was registered inside onGatePassed(),
which fires after the system's first insets dispatch. A single call to
requestApplyInsets() in BaseEmployeeRequiredActivity now forces a fresh
dispatch after the layout is attached, correcting padding on all affected screens.

Changes:

• BaseEmployeeRequiredActivity: call requestApplyInsets() after onGatePassed()
• activity_product_search.xml: removed stale fitsSystemWindows attribute

v2.0.2 — Home Screen Layout Fix

Bug Fixes

• Fixed home screen icon clipping after navigating to the admin
  dashboard and returning. The app icon was rendering partially
  off-screen on subsequent visits to the home screen.

Notes

• No database schema changes. Safe to update from v2.0.1 or v2.0.0.
• Single layout attribute change — no logic affected.

v2.0.1 — Barcode Display Fix

Bug Fixes

• Fixed EAN-8 (8-digit) barcodes displaying incorrectly after saving a product.
  Barcodes are stored internally as 13-digit GTIN format and are now correctly
  converted back to their original format on display.

Notes

• No database schema changes. Safe to update from v2.0.0.
