Sabq 9.0.9 — Reading Experience & Performance Update What's new: • Seasonal "Echo of Hajj" homepage block with live Hajj-day tracking. • Justified body text in article and opinion detail screens. • Three-state appearance: Follow System / Light / Dark. • Redesigned Points History: daily/weekly totals, date bucketing, and the article headline for every read/like event. • Refined empty states for Rewards Store and Notifications. Performance & stability: • Restored a missing homepage block by fixing a SwiftUI layout elision that prevented its data loader from firing. • Resolved a 404 in Points History caused by malformed URL query encoding. • Hardened the /loyalty/history backend so a hydration hiccup degrades gracefully instead of returning 500. • Fixed a false-positive "already resubmitted" chip that appeared before the revisions list finished loading.
