Pros and cons of releasing before the 15th

Issues currently in production

• ANR at first start
• Not possible to click the promo for producers in the environment tab
• kCal/kJ edit issue

Issues introduced by current develop

• The consent screen is badly integrated after the onboarding, and feels like a trick
• The history is not working well
• The photo manager is not working well
• Matomo (need revamp of consent, otherwise it's a blocker)
• Not sure how the in-app changelog behaves, and we need to be careful to populate it (or disable it temporarily)

New features introduced by current develop

• Lists are displayed on product
• Newer version of Sentry
• Refreshed translations (which ones ?)
• New ML kit scanner hidden within settings
• Possibly ? Going back below the Bad Behaviour Threshold thanks to less bugs (and thus stop being demoted on the Play Store)
• New onboarding that does a better job at explaining the scores
• Possibly fixed ANR at startup (to double check, it happened to me again)
• Better clipping for Robotoff
• Matomo (need revamp of consent, otherwise it's a blocker)
• Query minification is back
• Performance improvements
• confirmation added when setting a photo from photos tab
• minimize attribute payload to current language
• stores autosuggest in editing
• Colored and translated states in the contributor tab
• Removed the packager code tooltip (now inline in editing)
• Do not show nutrition table and nutrition per portion button if nutritional values are empty
• Eco-Score origin prompt moved to environment tab
• packaging values on the environment tab
• display ecoscore and nutriscore in Scan History
• Added build number in settings
• Add a message if we have a category but no Eco-Score
• EcoScore icon in Summary made clickable
• Fixed deep link issue when opening product from web
