New features

Bugfixes
- Fixed a potential issue where the app crashes when starting AR views.
- Fixed an issue where content is not automatically updated after a crucial setting (Server Name) changes.
- A bug where the app freezes when trying to delete objects locally was fixed.
- A bug where updating a newly created document provoked an error notification was fixed.
- A bug where an object couldn't be fully sent to the server but the user wasn't notified was fixed.
- Fixed a bug where the app crashed when a custom logo couldn't be loaded.
- A bug where files weren't synced during the offline mode preparations was fixed.
- A bug where endless editor popups appeared when a task had a readonly property was fixed.
- Fixed an issue where offline status led stopped working.
- The notification when the offline mode preparations are finished now doesn't look like an error message anymore.
- A bug where updated files weren't removed from the commit manager view was fixed.
- Fixed an issue where the app crashes when rotating devices running post Android JellyBean versions.
- A bug where a configured video wasn't played after clicking the texture was fixed. Also provided the possibility to stop and replay the video.
- A bug where the POI view crashed when opening it too soon was fixed.
- Fixed a bug where the start of activities used for optical code scanning wasn't delayed until the app is fully initialized.
- Fixed an issue where content/property cache is cleared before being saved.
- Fixed a bug where Map layers and Layer Items are not shown after logging in with different webservice.
- Fixed an issue where map layers are not saved/displayed.
- A bug where the AR Navigation crashed after changing the name of a target object was fixed and/or couldn't be reproduced.
- A bug where the app crashed after the offline mode preparations failed and the app is restarted afterwards was fixed and/or couldn't be reproduced.
- Fixed an issue where billboards are not repositioned in the POI view after their Geo data changes.
- A bug where the buttons in a dialog shown in the AR view were too small was fixed.
- Fixed a bug where the NavigationMapsButton, used in the configurable start screen feature, didn't open the Navigation Maps Activity.
- Fixed a bug where the buttons in the AR Navigation HUD weren't the same size.
