What's new
Changes to selecting authentication methods and support for custom authentication
You can now implement your own custom authentication for your application, if one of the four provided authentication methods doesn’t suit your environment.
To support custom authentication methods for the application, the Authentication.js file was refactored into four files, one for each of the provided authentication methods. You can specify an authentication method with the new REACT_APP_AUTH_METHOD environment variable. The REACT_APP_SIMPLE_AUTH_ON environment variable is no longer needed and was removed.
If you want to use your own custom authentication, you can now use a new hook to inject your own custom authentication method into the application.
For more information, see Customizing the authentication method. (4046)

Unexpected cursor movement when editing large currency amounts in IEG forms
An issue was fixed with IEG_MONEY domain type fields that caused the cursor to jump to the end of the number when you edited large amounts in currency fields. (PO08685)(4516)
Screen flicker in IEG forms when submitting an application
Previously, when a citizen submitted an application from the sign and submit page, a flicker was seen before the confirmation page loaded. This flicker is now fixed. (PO08695)(4595)
Date input incorrectly allowing 00 inputs
Previously, you could enter 00 values for days and months into the date masked TextInput for both 'dd-mm-yyyy' | 'mm-dd-yyyy' formats. Now, these values are prevented as expected. (PO08716)(4845)
Previous known issue fixed for the IEG date picker on iPad with Google Chrome
