Our December update is code named “LOIS LANE”, perhaps the greatest reporter on the planet. Since her first appearance in Action Comics #1, Lois has found herself at the center of one earth-shattering event after another. She’ll do whatever it takes to get the story and we’ll do whatever it takes to improve DC Universe with new features and better performance.

TL;DR - We spent our month perfecting some basics and improving privacy efforts for our all esteemed citizens.
CCPA is an Act passed in California to protect privacy and user data. It stands for California Consumer Privacy Act. Because of this Act in one state, we must bring all states up to the same standards. Basically, you’ll be asked a lot more if you accept website cookies. (This was the really time-consuming one, this month, and less visible).
A User’s “starting point” is where they are in the service. The product will remember where you started and return you to that point more efficiently when you’ve finished reading a comic or video.
Deeplinking is when you click links inside of the service, and ensuring they successfully route you to where you’re aiming.
It used to be when you searched, you would get a black screen. That won’t happen anymore.
Our User Interface (UI) is prettier.
Our Video Player and Comic Book Reader page transitions are prettier.
Hope this helps, let me know if there’s anything else that needs clarifying!
Indeed! In reference to the search engine found on dcuniverse.com, please try adding quotation marks and let us know if that improves your search results in News. Glad to hear the other areas are improved for Android
