Using Xcode 11 requires Sentiance SDK v5.5.2 and above
Using Xcode 11 and targeting iOS SDK 13 breaks user linking on the Sentiance SDK. We have patched this in version 5.5.2 of our SDK. Please make sure your app is up to date.
Sentiance iOS SDK does not support arm64 simulator
Due to a limitation in our TensorFlow Lite dependency, the Sentiance iOS SDK is not able to provide support for arm64 simulator.
We recommend users continue their development using either an iOS device or an x86_64 simulator while we're working on fixing things as fast as we can.
[5.13.0] - 5 May 2022
Added
Step count tracking (disabled by default).
Support scheduling background tasks.
Changed
Improved the vehicle crash detection algorithm.
[5.12.1] - 3 Feb 2022
Changed
Improved the vehicle crash detection algorithm.
Added support for vehicle crash detection when motion activity permission is not granted.
Fixed
A bug that was introduced in v5.11.2, where reinstalling the app did not clear the previous Sentiance user.
[5.12.0] - 4 Jan 2022
Fixed
Trip recording consistency upon unexpected app restart.
Stability of background task usage in the SDK.
Improved vehicle crash detection.
Inability to detect trips after toggling the location precision setting on iOS 14+.
Deprecated
Legacy on-device trip profiling. This feature will be removed in the next major release.
[5.11.2] - 8 Nov 2021
Fixed
Fixed updating debug log configuration received from backstage.
Removed obsolete linker flag '-all_load' from podspec which lead to linker issues in recent react native environments.
[5.11.1] - 29 Jul 2021
Fixed
Fixed an issue where detections were not able to start on iOS 15 devices due to the updated authorization status.
Fixed TensorFLowLite model updating mechanism at runtime.
Removed embedded TensorFlowLite library from SENTSDK pod by providing a separate thinned package and adding a pod dependency to TensorFlowLite (applies to CocoaPods integration only and requires CocoaPods 1.10.0or above).
[5.11.0] - 16 Jul 2021
Added
Support SDK artifacts without CallKit linkage
Fixed
Fixed rare and transient runtime crashes when object references inside the SDK get released from the OS due to erroneous reference semantics.
Fixed delayed uploading of payloads in case of outdated authentication tokens.
Fixed missing trip detections due to erroneous flip flop checks.
[5.10.1] - 20 May 2021
Changed
Updated embedded TensorFlowLite framework to v2.4.0.
Fixed
Fixed potential accelerometer data gaps in trip objects due to included data from previous trips.
Fixed swift compiler warning since Xcode 12.5 wrt a missing include in the umbrella header.
[5.10.0] - 14 Apr 2021
Added
Support for approximate location access available since iOS 14.
Support for detection of screen lock/unlock events.
Changed
Add fail-fast mechanism during third party user linking if linking has not been completed.
Slightly adjust the actual stationary start time in the same way as the Android SDK.
Fixed
Missing sensor data for crash events in some cases.
Overlapping stationary events in case of trip timeouts.
Recovery of trip object creation in case the SDK got killed by the OS.
Trip object creation and submission in case of a crash event.
[5.9.0] - 29 Jan 2021
Added
New type to SDK artifacts which are now packaged as both Framework and XCFramework (Please make sure to have CocoaPods 1.10.0 or above installed on your machine if you integrate Sentiance SDK via CocoaPods).
An improved and more accurate vehicle crash detection, backed by a machine learning model. You must switch to using the new Sentiance API method setVehicleCrashHandler: to activate it.
A new method to check if crash detection is supported on the device for a specific trip type. See isVehicleCrashDetectionSupported:.
Beta Feature: Support for host apps that enable Data Protection. This functionality is released as a beta feature and not yet recommended for production use.
Changed
The trip serialization process utilizes a less intense and more optimized background processing model.
An issue where portions of accelerometer and gyroscope data might be missed
An issue where stationary detection might overlap with past stationary and trip detections
An issue where the SDK might continuously report an initialization state of SENTInitInProgress after the initialization credentials are changed
An issue where the SDK might continue collecting location fixes even after the user becomes stationary and cause excessive energy consumption
An issue where the SDK might accidentally remove keychain items owned by the host app
An issue where the SDK might crash during a network operation
Removed
Location permission prompt when starting the SDK. If you rely on the SDK for prompting the user, please make sure you update your app and prompt the user during the onboarding.
[5.7.4] - 15 Jul 2020
Fixed
The SQLCore I/O database error
High frequency GPS configuration
[5.7.3] - 9 Jul 2020
Fixed
An issue where the SDK might not register geofences after determining that the user is stationary
An issue where the SDK might use outdated geofences during stationary state determination
[5.7.1] - 4 Jun 2020
Fixed
An issue when using beacon regions was causing unexpected exits
[5.7.0] - 3 Jun 2020
Added
Support added for on-device trip profiling and hard event detection.
[5.6.1] - 21 Feb 2020
Fixed
An issue where the SDK might quit unexpectedly during resetting due to an internal issue
[5.6.0] - 5 Feb 2020
Added
Support for resetting the SDK to factory settings, which clears all user data and allows creating a new Sentiance user.
Changed
The geo-fence management policy so that the SDK does not intervene with the lifecycle of geo-fences owned by the enclosing app.
Removed the motion activity permission prompt when starting the SDK. If you rely on the SDK for prompting the user, please make sure you update your app and prompt the user during the onboarding.
Fixed
An issue where the SDK database might experience conflicts when the enclosing app also uses database instance(s) of CoreData.
[5.5.5] - 13 Nov 2019
Fixed the SDK start/stop infinite loop when the user was selecting “Allow Once” for iOS 13 location permission.
