Error description
Initial WL app on device with busy indicator showing and then direct update notification comes; update the app and after update finishes, the busy indicator is still showing and does not hide, which makes the app hanging on the page and stops the app and customer to the next steps. This problem happens every time on both android and iOS and different types of mobile devices.
Local fix
Add the following code at the end of busyIndicatorShowApp.js: ---------------------------------------------------------------- var _wl_update = WL.App.__update; WL.App.__update = function(shouldUpdateSilently) { busy.hide(); _wl_update.bind(WL.App)(shouldUpdateSilently); }; ----------------------------------------------------------------
Problem summary

Problem conclusion
The problem is fixed by firing a custom event WL.Events.BEFORE_DIRECT_UPDATE, which can be handled at the document level ($(document).on(WL.Events.BEFORE_DIRECT_UPDATE, function() {....}).
