@mvtglobally are you able to reproduce?

@mvtglobally Huh... This is 4 days overdue. Who can take care of this?

[mallenexpensify]

@mvtglobally can you see if you're able to reproduce?

[melvin-bot]

@mvtglobally 6 days overdue. This is scarier than being forced to listen to Vogon poetry!

@mallenexpensify @mallenexpensify I was checking with the team on the same. There is a tricky way to download PROD build on Android with the same device as you have staging. Currently we all see STG
Since all our testers are already getting BETA (STG) builds, not sure this result is accurate.
Is there any chance you can ask someone in Expensify internally who DOES NOT have staging build to download PROD build?
