Over the last 6 weeks we've fixed 34 software defects, including the following priority field issues and reliability concerns:
- Text disappearing from Canvas
- Invalid text size, and editing text causes nothing to be selectable
- On removing background [of uploaded image], image appears as blank
- Text style change reverts Guide operation to Basic Cut
- Some SVG images are failing to load on the Canvas, and navigating through the app is causing crashes or making it unresponsive

- Prompt for pen color to load into machine is incorrect
