 ## [Unreleased]
 
+-   We switched to a new sound library for the Play sound action to support react-native 0.84+.
+-   The Play sound action now plays audio files from online (network) documents on Android by downloading them to a version-based cache before playback.
 -   We have fixed the biometric authentication issue where it was not working on Android and crashing on iOS.
