1.20.2

This release backports changes from 1.21.1

Inbox

1.21.0

BREAKING

• Removed support for optional Play Core library. You should now use the Play In-App Review Library. Please see our documentation for more info.

Core

• Removed automatic collection of AAID (Android Advertising Identifier). setCanUseAdvertisingID is now a no-op. You need to collect it from your side and pass it to Batch via the added Batch.User.editor().setAttributionIdentifier(id) method.

Push

• To help with FCM v1 API migration, the SDK will send the GCP Project ID associated to the FCM Token to Batch's backend. This is not supported in legacy GCM/FCM Instance ID modes.

User

• Fixed an issue on BatchUserDataEditor where data wasn't sent when using setEmail or setEmailMarketingSubscriptionState.

1.20.0

Core

• Batch now compiles with and targets SDK 34 (Android 14 'Upside Down Cake').
• Fixed a rare issue where the SDK could trigger an ANR on start when upgraded from an older version.

Push

• Improved notification image by making notifications taller if possible and changing scaling type to Center Fit.

User

• Added Batch.User.editor().setEmail(email) method. This requires to have a user identifier registered or to call the setIdentifier method on the editor instance beforehand.

1.19.2

Core

• Batch now compiles with and targets SDK 33 (Android 13).
• Improved support for Android 13 Tiramisu.
• Added a new API: Batch.Push.requestNotificationPermission(context). This allows you to request for the new notification permission introduced in Android 13. See the documentation for more info.
• Fixed an issue where BatchNotificationChannelsManager.openSystemChannelSettings(context) wasn't working with an application context.

Event Dispatcher

• Fixed a crash that could happen when using Batch SDK 1.19+ with ATInternet or Firebase dispatcher plugins < 3.0.

Messaging

• Fixed a display issue on Modals with an image but no title.

1.19.0

Core

• Batch now compiles and targets SDK 32 (Android 12L).
• Important change: Batch now declares to use the android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission in its manifest. If you want to remove it, add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS" tools:node="remove" /> in your app's AndroidManifest.
• Fixed some rare ANRs produced when receiving push.
• Identical push messages sent twice by FCM will now only be displayed once.
• Batch will now try to display FCM high priority push notifications directly rather than scheduling a Job.

Event Dispatchers

• Added getName and getVersion on BatchEventDispatcher. If you are using a Batch dispatcher plugin, please update it.

Messaging

• Added global frequency capping management for in-app campaigns.
• Improved the way In-App campaigns are triggered.
• Added just-in-time verification for in-app campaigns.

Inbox

• Added the ability to disable the filtering of silent notifications on BatchInboxFetcher using the setFilterSilentNotifications method.
• Important change: Silent notifications are now filtered by default: use the new property if you relied on the previous behaviour.
  This brings the Android SDK in line with its iOS counterpart, which has always filtered silent notifications as expected.
