Sure. I understand. I have been invested in ADA for a few years and I'm an iOS developer.  But this is a process level issue.  The versions of the Catalyst app have no continuity.  The fact that there is no good process to retain the QR code and PIN is not the best trade-off.  FWIW, the other teams have really nothing to do with the iOS and Android teams.

Could Project Catalyst explain why the iOS release process is so poor?

The IOHK dev team is very impressive and it is somewhat startling that the Project Catalyst iOS App (and maybe Android as well?) has a janky release process.

There is no visibility and I wonder if there are some specific Github issue that explains the problem? My assumption is that this is because the code is written in react-native?

Any clarification will be help.
