The features and fixes listed below are now generally available in version 2.2.0 for all supported distributions.

Bug Fixes

1. Download Manager Battery Threshold Logic Correction [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-1]
   Resolved an issue where users could not access the Download Manager when the iPad battery level was below the configured minimum threshold. After reconnecting power and exceeding the threshold, the warning message persisted even after refresh. The logic has been corrected to accurately detect the current battery level and clear the warning upon refresh.
2. Improved Static HTML Dataset Management [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-2]
   Enhanced management and rendering of static custom HTML datasets. This update resolves issues such as page freezes and blank screen rendering.Note: This fix is only applicable to Free-Form Data – HTML data repositories that do not conform to a specific documentation standard like S1000D or iSpec 2200.
3. Dynamic Table Filter Correction for S1000D Data [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-3]
   Fixed a functional defect in dynamic tables where text-based filtering did not work as expected. Input filters now correctly apply search parameters and update table contents accordingly.
4. Offline Mode Launch Crash Resolved [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-4]
   Fixed an issue that caused the application to crash when users selected “Work Offline” without an active internet connection. The app now correctly handles offline startup conditions and provides clear user feedback.
5. Launch Optimization for Large Entitlement Payloads [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-5]
   Applied performance optimizations to address compatibility issues with iOS 26, where very large entitlement payloads caused the application to hang during launch. Startup processing has been refactored to handle large payloads efficiently.
6. Table of Contents Scroll Behavior Fix [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-12]
   Resolved an issue where the Table of Contents (TOC) automatically scrolled back to the top during navigation. The TOC now maintains its scroll position as users explore documents, improving navigation continuity and overall user experience.
7. Applicability Filtering and Service Bulletin Resolution Improvement [NMX-V-MB-IPADOS-220-13]
   Enhanced Applicability Filtering logic to ensure correct runtime resolution of Service Bulletin (SB) incorporation states and PSN-based applicability rules. Filtering is now fully aligned with the updated SB Configurator and Applicability modules introduced in the 2024-2 platform upgrade for other Editions, ensuring consistent results across environments.
