22.22 FR165 DrawRadialText symbol not found

Since the last update, 22.22, method Dc.drawRadialText stopped working on the FR165 and FR165m.
It works fine in the sim, but crashes on a real device with error "Symbol not found".

I reported this last month when it was still in Beta as well:

Now the software is rolling out, apps that use this will method will crash (including two of my watchfaces) with no easy way to work around this.

    What happens to the users who have installed/bought this already, when removing their device from the manifest? Do they simply not get the update, or would it remove it from the store for them? Maybe even completely remove the app from their watch? And can they still change the settings through the IQ app? Or would this be blocked since they don't have the latest update?

    Chances are they will change to something else if the one they are using keeps crashing, but new folks won't be able to try it and get frustrated/angry.

    And for paid apps ask for a refund, even though the dev isn't responsible, because they paid for something that doesn't work.  They don't care who's responsible.

    My apps that can use scalable fonts were written in a way that they also work on devices without scalable fonts but with a different look and don't crash
