Previous releases summary

Date Version Features and Fixes
April 20, 2021 Android 6.0.0 Optimized the Android Geo SDK to display all geo notifications from a notification cache that is refreshed regularly and at app start. As a result, notifications now display faster due to less background restrictions being applied. This also brings the SDK more in-line with Android’s background processing best practices. Removed the previously deprecated SwrveGeoCustomFilter from SwrveGeoConfig. Please use SwrveGeoNotificationFilter instead which provides richer details. Removed maxDisplayWindowMinutes from SwrveGeoConfig.
March 19, 2021 Android 5.1.0 The Android Geo SDK 5.1.0 now supports Android 11 (targetSdkVersion 30). Deprecated SwrveGeoCustomFilter in SwrveGeoConfig.customFilter. Please use SwrveGeoNotificationFilter in SwrveGeoConfig.notificationFilter instead which provides richer details about the triggered notification
