Everything seems to be working fine except the app hangs randomly and quite frequently. Build script works. Further testing is required (especially app updates)

Additional notes, versions v20, and v18 were tested but all presented the same issue. They randomly hang if the dev tool is open. The closest version that didn't present this issue was v17.
