Bug fixes:

• Our SDK contains Lottie animations, which are required in order for the flow to work as expected. In cases where users had the animations setting disabled in their device, the app was crashing. This has been fixed whereby if animations are disabled in the device, then the screens that contain animations will only display the first frame of the animation as a static image - allowing the user to seamlessly continue with the flow
