Guardian

If you can’t remove the object, Guardian will make you aware of it to help you create a safer playspace.

Fixes
Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the view to freeze upon using the headset for the first time after a long period of inactivity.

Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the ‘Free’ button to remain on an app’s store page after previously selecting it rather than showing the download progress.
Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the artwork for apps to appear as blank tiles in users’ libraries.
Fixed the design of Guardian boundaries during the confirmation step to align with the initial animation.
