4.0.0-rc.1

Release 4.0.0-rc.1

Dependency update

Changed

• Updated GRDB dependency to 4.4.0. This allows our SDK to work around React Native bug in 0.60+

Better client-platform communication

Added

• SDK informs HyperTrack platform about tracking outages that happened when SDK was offline (permissions change)

Fixed

• Multiple push notifications received in the background now can't lead to app being suspended (because of tracking being restarted)

Improved first tracking experience

Added

• When SDK starts tracking it sends the last known activity event. This can help visually understand in what state the device is currently in immediately after tracking has started.
• Added more debug logging

Changed

• Improved location filtering. This increases the number of location events during unknown activities. Should improve overall tracking polyline.

More stable and robust

Added

• SDK now restarts tracking if it was tracking before the app restart
• Ignores all repeated commands (startTracking, stopTracking, name, metadata etc.) if new state is the same as the old one
• SDK sends silent push notification acknowledgments to backend. This results in more stable Trips experience
• Added error messages when static SDK methods are used before publishable key was set
• Increased robustness across all usage scenarios and states

New SDK interface

Changed

• SDK sports new interface that should be easier to use, more functional

Deprecated

• Old interface is still there, but it's deprecated for now

Fixed

• Fixed an issue where activity permissions were asked manually by the host app, but didn't propagate to the SDK

Transition to GitHub Releases

Changed

• SDK now consumes less network data
