New features
The Report a Problem functionality has been extended significantly to support a range of new features including the ability to
Add custom fields, instructions and category details to problem types in order to assist in accurate and complete reporting of and insight into problems in-field
Add tasks to problem types in order to automatically add those tasks to any problem resolution jobs
View the approximate location of the user at the time a problem was reported

Please note that the current version of our mobile app (1.5.2) does not yet take advantage of the new problem functionality. You'll see this introduced in the next version over the coming days
Feature improvements and changes
The list library has been replaced with inline list management to provide a simplified experience when creating and managing lists. Now, instead of having to create a list via the library to configure a custom field or sub-task, you can simply create the list on the spot when configuring a custom field or sub-task
Defining a list is now the same as defining any other custom field or sub-task item as lists now have a 1-to-1 relationship with their custom field or sub-task (and as such cannot be shared across different custom fields or sub-tasks)
How does this affect existing lists? Lists are available and editable directly against the custom fields or sub-tasks that referenced them
How does this affect existing jobs, assets, sites etc? Everything that referenced lists through custom fields or sub-tasks will be completely unaffected
How does this affect selecting list values on jobs, assets, sites etc? There is no change to the process of selecting list values
