    Fixed

    • Fixed validation error message for missing fields while scheduling appointments.
    • Fixed issue with RetailDepartment model serialization in Android 14. Following exception would be thrown if the RetailDepartment model was serialized using ObjectMapper.
    
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: The Mean Sea Level altitude accuracy of this location is not set.
    • Fixed issue for Android 14 where extra stability serialization was causing issues with visits scheduling.
    • Fixed an issue on virtual visit where a Toast was showing up with provider video disabled message if the app was backgrounded.
