6.4.0

Fixed

• Fixes an issue preventing text fields from being selected in HTML IAMs for iOS 15.
• Fixes an issue where the device model was inaccurately reported as iPad on macOS (Mac Catalyst and Designed for iPad configurations).
• Fixes an issue where custom event and purchase properties would not accept an entry if its value was an empty string.
• Fixes a crash that occurred in the default UI for Content Cards when encountering a zero-value aspect ratio.
• Fixes an issue introduced in 6.0.0 where images in in-app messages would appear smaller than expected when using the compatibility UI (BrazeUICompat).

Added

• Adds the unviewedCards convenience property to the Braze.ContentCards class to get the unviewed content cards for the current user.

6.3.1

Fixed

• Fixes an issue where the previous user's data would not be flushed after calling changeUser(userId:sdkAuthSignature:) when the SDK authentication feature is enabled.
• A content card impression can now be logged once per session. Previously, the Braze-provided Content Cards UI would limit to a single impression per card at maximum, irrespective of sessions.
• Fixes an issue that previously caused push notification URLs with percent-encoded characters to fail during decoding.
• Fixes a behavior to automatically set a user's push subscription state to optedIn after push permissions have explicitly been authorized via the Settings app.
• Correctly hides shadows on in-app messages that are configured with a transparent background.
• Fixes a rare crash occurring when deinitializing the Braze instance.

Added

• Adds additional logging for network-related decoding errors.

6.3.0

Fixed

• "Confirm" and "Cancel" notification categories now show the correct titles on the action buttons.

Added

• Adds a new SDKMetadata option .reactnativenewarch for the React Native New Architecture.
• Adds public initializers for Braze.URLContext and Braze.ModalContext.

6.2.0

Fixed

• Fixes a crash introduced in 6.0.0 when displaying an HTML in-app message using the BrazeUICompat module.
• Removed a system call that is known to be slow on older versions of macOS. This resolves the SDK hanging during initialization on Mac Catalyst when running on affected macOS versions.

Added

• Adds support for target attributes on anchor tags in HTML in-app messages (e.g. <a href="..." target="_blank"></a>).
  • Adding the target attribute to links will allow them to open in a new webview without dismissing the current in-app message.
  • This behavior can be disabled via the linkTargetSupport property of the BrazeInAppMessageUI.HtmlView.Attributes struct.
  • See our Custom HTML in-app messages documentation page for more details.

6.1.0

Fixed

• Fixes an issue that led to disproportionately large close buttons on in-app messages when the user has set a large font size in the device settings.
• Fixes an issue that would lock the screen in a specific orientation after the dismissal of an in-app message customized to be presented in that orientation.
  • This issue only impacted iOS 16.0+ devices.

Added

• Adds new versions of setCustomAttribute to the User object to support nested custom attributes.
  • Renames User.setCustomAttributeArray(key: String, array: [String]?) to setCustomAttribute(…) to align it with other custom attribute setters, and adds "string" to the addTo and removeFrom attribute array methods to clarify which custom attributes they're used for.

6.0.0

Breaking

• The in-app message data models sent to BrazeInAppMessagePresenter.present(message:) now contain remote asset URLs. Previously, these data models would contain local asset URLs.
  • This change is only breaking in two situations:
    • When implementing a custom BrazeInAppMessagePresenter.
    • When relying on asset URLs being local in the message provided by BrazeInAppMessageUIDelegate.inAppMessage(_:displayChoiceForMessage:)
  • The in-app message data models available from the other BrazeInAppMessageUIDelegate methods remain unchanged and contain local asset URLs.

Added

• The in-app message context now provides two additional methods:
  • getLocalAssets(urls:destinationURL:completionHandler:): Retrieves the local assets associated with the given remote asset URLs.
  • withLocalAssets(message:destinationURL:completionHandler:): Returns a modified in-app message with all remote asset URLs replaced with local ones.

5.14.0

Fixed

• VoiceOver now correctly focuses on in-app message views when they are presented.
• Fixes an issue causing in-app messages with re-eligibility disabled to display multiple times under certain conditions.
• Fixes an issue where modal and full in-app message headers were truncated on devices running iOS versions lower than 16 when displaying non-ASCII characters.
• The dynamic variant of BrazeUI.framework in the release artifact braze-swift-sdk-prebuilt.zip is now an actual dynamic framework. Previously, this specific framework was mistakenly distributed as a static framework.

Added

• Adds the BrazeSDKAuthDelegate protocol as a separate protocol from BrazeDelegate, allowing for more flexible integrations.
  • Apps implementing BrazeDelegate.braze(_:sdkAuthenticationFailedWithError:) should migrate to use BrazeSDKAuthDelegate and remove the old implementation. The BrazeDelegate method will be removed in a future major release.

5.13.0

Fixed

• Fixes an issue where the SDK would automatically track body clicks on non-legacy HTML in-app messages.

Added

• Adds the synchronous deviceId property on the Braze instance.
  • deviceId(queue:completion:) is now deprecated.
  • deviceId() async is now deprecated.
• Adds the automaticBodyClicks property to the HTML in-app message view attributes. This property can be used to enable automatic body clicks tracking on non-legacy HTML in-app messages.
  • This property is false by default.
  • This property is ignored for legacy HTML in-app messages.

5.12.0

Starting with this release, this SDK will use Semantic Versioning.

Added

• Adds json() and decoding(json:) public methods to the Feature Flag model object for JSON encoding/decoding.

5.11.2

Fixed

• Fixes a crash occurring when the SDK is configured with a flush interval of 0 and network connectivity is poor.

5.11.1

Fixed

• Fixes an issue preventing the correct calculation of the delay when retrying failed requests. This led to a more aggressive retry schedule than intended.
• Improves the performance of Live Activity tracking by de-duping push token tag requests.
• Fixes an issue in logClick(using:) where it would incorrectly open the url field in addition to logging a click for metrics. It now only logs a click for metrics.
  • This applies to the associated APIs for content cards, in-app messages, and news feed cards.
  • It is still recommended to use the associated Context object to log interactions instead of these APIs.

Added

• Adds BrazeKit.overrideResourceBundle and BrazeUI.overrideResourceBundle to allow for custom resource bundles to be used by the SDK.
  • This feature is useful when your setup prevents you from using the default resource bundle (e.g. Tuist).

5.11.0

Added

• Adds support for Live Activities via the liveActivities module on the Braze instance.
  • This feature provides the following new methods for tracking and managing Live Activities with the Braze push server:
    • launchActivity(pushTokenTag:activity:)
    • resumeActivities(ofType:)
  • This feature requires iOS 16.1 and up.
  • To learn how to integrate this feature, refer to the setup tutorial.
• Adds logic to re-synchronize Content Cards on SDK version changes.
• Adds provisional support for Xcode 14.3 Beta via the braze-inc/braze-swift-sdk-xcode-14-3-preview repository.

5.10.1

Changed

• Dynamic versions of the prebuilt xcframeworks are now available in the braze-swift-sdk-prebuilt.zip release artifact.

5.10.0

Fixed

• Fixes an issue where test content cards were removed before their expiration date.
• Fixes an issue in BrazeUICompat where the status bar appearance wasn't restored to its original state after dismissing a full in-app message.
• Fixes an issue when decoding notification payloads where some valid boolean values weren't correctly parsed.

Changed

• In-app modal and full-screen messages are now rendered with UITextView, which better supports large amounts of text and extended UTF code points.

5.9.1

Fixed

• Fixes an issue preventing local expired content cards from being removed.
• Fixes a behavior that could lead to background tasks extending beyond the expected time limit with inconsistent network connectivity.

Added

• Adds logImpression(using:) and logClick(buttonId:using:) to news feed cards.

5.9.0

Breaking

• Raises the minimum deployment target to iOS 11.0 and tvOS 11.0.
• Raises the Xcode version to 14.1 (14B47b).

Fixed

• Fixes an issue where the post-click webview would close automatically in some cases.
• Fixes a behavior where the current user messaging data would not be directly available after initializing the SDK or calling changeUser(userId:).
• Fixes an issue preventing News Feed data models from being available offline.
• Fixes an issue where the release binaries could emit warnings when generating dSYMs.

Changed

• SwiftPM and CocoaPods now use the same release assets.

Added

• Adds support for the upcoming Braze Feature Flags product.
• Adds the braze-swift-sdk-prebuilt.zip archive to the release assets.
  • This archive contains the prebuilt xcframeworks and their associated resource bundles.
  • The content of this archive can be used to manually integrate the SDK.
• Adds the Examples-Manual.xcodeproj showcasing how to integrate the SDK using the prebuilt release assets.
• Adds support for Mac Catalyst for example applications, available at Support/Examples/
• Adds support to convert from Data into an in-app message, content card, or news feed card via decoding(json:).

5.8.1

Fixed

• Fixes a conflict with the shared instance of ProcessInfo, allowing low power mode notifications to trigger correctly.

Changed

• Renames the BrazeLocation class to BrazeLocationProvider to avoid shadowing the module of the same name (SR-14195).

5.8.0

To help migrate your app from the Appboy-iOS-SDK to our Swift SDK, this release includes the Appboy-iOS-SDK migration guide:

• Follow step-by-step instructions to migrate each feature to the new APIs.
• Includes instructions for a minimal migration scenario via our compatibility libraries.

Added

• Adds compatibility libraries BrazeKitCompat and BrazeUICompat:
  • Provides all the old APIs from Appboy-iOS-SDK to easily start migrating to the Swift SDK.
  • See the migration guide for more details.
• Adds support for News Feed data models and analytics.
  • News Feed UI is not supported by the Swift SDK. See the migration guide for instructions on using the compatibility UI.

5.7.0

Fixed

• Fixes an issue where modal image in-app messages would not respect the aspect ratio of the image when the height of the image is larger than its width.

Changed

• Changes modal, modal image, full, and full image in-app message view attributes to use the ViewDimension type for their minWidth, maxWidth and maxHeight attributes.
  • The ViewDimension type enables providing different values for regular and large size-classes.

Added

• Adds a configuration to use a randomly generated UUID instead of IDFV as the device ID: useUUIDAsDeviceId.
  • This configuration defaults to false. To opt in to this feature, set this value to true.
  • Enabling this value will only affect new devices. Existing devices will use the device identifier that was previously registered.

5.6.4

Fixed

• Fixes an issue preventing the execution of BrazeDelegate methods when setting the delegate using Objective-C.
• Fixes an issue where triggering an in-app message twice with the same event did not place the message on the in-app message stack under certain conditions.

Added

• Adds the public id field to Braze.InAppMessage.Data.
• Adds logImpression(using:) and logClick(buttonId:using:) to both in-app messages and content cards, and adds logDismissed(using:) to content cards.
  • It is recommended to continue using the associated Context to log impressions, clicks, and dismissals for the majority of use cases.
• Adds Swift concurrency to support async/await versions of the following public methods. These methods can be used as alternatives to their corresponding counterparts that use completion handlers:
  • Braze.User.id()
  • Braze.deviceId()
  • ContentCards.requestRefresh()
  • ContentCards.cardsStream as an alternative to ContentCards.subscribeToUpdates(_:)

5.6.3

Fixed

• Fixes the InAppMessageRaw to InAppMessage conversion to properly take into account the extras dictionary and the duration.
• Fixes an issue preventing the execution of the braze(_:sdkAuthenticationFailedWithError:) delegate method in case of an authentication error.

5.5.0

Added

• Adds support for host apps written in Objective-C.
  • Braze Objective-C types start either with BRZ or Braze, e.g.:
    • Braze
    • BrazeDelegate
    • BRZContentCardRaw
  • See our Objective-C Examples project.
• Adds BrazeDelegate.braze(_:noMatchingTriggerForEvent:) which is called if no Braze in-app message is triggered for a given event.
