same device

Bugfixing:

- Dashboard app: unsupported map types (https://jira.dhis2.org/
browse/ACA-114)
- Android Dashboard App - Event report tables, order of elements and
aggregate data charts (https://jira.dhis2.org/browse/ACA-61)
- Remotely added dashboard elements doesn't sync
- Remotely deleted dashboard elements doesn't sync
- When trying to login to a wrong URL, it shows credentials failure

You can install it through Google Play (Dashboard
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.hisp.dhis.android.dashboard>)
or download the apk from Github (Dashboard
<https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-android-dashboard/releases>).

Following this link <https://goo.gl/wsHj8w>, you will find documentation
with detailed information on the functionalities included in the App and
how they behave compare to the Web. (We recommend to download the PDF file,
internal links do not work if you open them online).This document is a tool
for implementers who need to understand if the App covers their needs and
respond to their configurations of DHIS2 in the web.

Remember that all this information is also available in the Android Section
of the DHIS2 web site <https://www.dhis2.org/Android>!

Big thanks to the teams behind the development, testing and documentation.

Best,
Marta
