Android app 6.1.7

I see that latest android available now is 6.1.7. With my app still sticking to 5.6.1 (released 11-Mar-2025), do we know:

what bugs have been fixed from 5.6.1 to 6.1.7?
what bugs have been introduced from 5.6.1 to 6.1.7?

(not interested in any "enhancement" introduced)

Well, one of the 'new' things for me is that when I select 'Devices' on the Android app, then choose my first gen. Arlo chime (the one with material/cloth over it) and then select the back arrow '<--' in the top left corner to go back to 'Device Settings', I get a blank screen. Tested on two chimes that I have in operation.

Oh yeah, and there is still a minor issue with the Audio doorbell tile: if you go to 'Devices', then select your audio doorbell, then select the go back arrow in the top left corner ('<--'), the screen resets to the top view, rather than where it was, as is the case with other devices. I suppose this is a petty thing in the grand scheme of things.

So, there you go.

Other than that, I'm not doing any testing for Arlo unless they pay me or give me some freebies.
