Version Release Notes

Release date January 30, 2019

Point SDK for iOS V1.13.1

Enhancements

Persistent InstallRef:
InstallRef is now persisted across the life of the SDK’s install on a specific device. Previously, the InstallRef would change if the SDK (i.e your app) was uninstalled and then reinstalled. If the Point SDK is installed twice on the same device, through two different apps, each installation would have its own unique InstallRef.

Defect fixes

Data Protection capability enabled:
If your app has iOS Data Protection capability enabled and you’re using Bludeot’s Enhanced app restart, the SDK will no longer crash after the phone has been restarted.

Release date January 23, 2019

Point SDK for Android V1.13.1

Enhancements

Enhancement in Beacon detection & triggering logic:
Improved the beacon detecting logic of the Point SDK. This will increase the trigger rate of beacons when the device is locked or when the app is in the background.

Defect fixes

Multiple Logout issue fixed:
Calling the Logout method mutiple times would result in multiple logout requests being received, which would eventually cause the SDK to crash. This is now fixed.
