Hey @Expensify/applauseleads, the iOS and Android builds are currently missing due to a build error. We're working on it and will update you when they are fixed

[mvtglobally]

@Julesssss do we need to hold regression or we can proceed with Web/Desktop

[OSBotify]

🚀 All staging deploys are complete, @Expensify/applauseleads please begin QA on version https://github.com/Expensify/App/releases/tag/1.3.54-5 🚀

[Julesssss]

Hey @mvtglobally. Android should now be available too, so I think we should start on all platforms except iOS for now. cc @yuwenmemon to double check though

[Julesssss]

Manually updated the version to v1.3.54-8 -- this should be available for all platforms except iOS

[yuwenmemon]

Yes let's begin. We're working on fixing iOS right now.

Regression is completed @yuwenmemon

Checking off #23669 (comment)
#21551 (comment)

#24204 is failing #24596
#24244 is blocked on Web/mWeb/Desktop. And we are not fully able to verify on Apps. Can you double check it internally? Issue #24244 (Highlight on text is displayed when email is pressed in Bills screen)

#24299 is Prod QA. Ok to check it off?
