Major SDK release that adds support for Stories, In-App experiences downstream of a sequence in Journeys, and improves SDK auth.

This release brings several breaking changes throughout the codebase as we continue the transition from Objective-C to Swift, and as we start adopting structured concurrency.

The Airship SDK now requires iOS 14+ as the minimum deployment version and Xcode 14.3+

Changes

• Added support for Stories, a new format for Scenes
• Added support for In-App experiences downstream of a sequence in Journeys
• Updated minimum deployment version to iOS 14
• Message Center module has been rewritten in Swift
• The provided Message Center UI has been rewritten in Swift & SwiftUI
• The provided Preference Center UI has been rewritten in SwiftUI
• Accengage, Chat, and Location modules have been removed
• ExtendedActions module has been removed and actions have been merged into other modules
• A majority of the completionHandler APIs have been replaced with async functions

• Actions rewritten to be sendable and are now only available from Swift
• Improved SDK auth

• The SDK Allow list has been updated to allow opening all URLs by default if neither urlAllowList or urlAllowListScopeOpen have been set in the config. Media URLs for In-App experiences are no longer checked on the allow list. Youtube URLs have been removed from the default urlAllowListScopeOpen.

Patch release that fixes app deep links that use the uairship:// prefix. Any uairship:// deep links that are not handled by Airship directly will now be delivered to the DeepLinkDelegate.

Changes

• Allow the DeepLinkDelegate to process unhandled uairship:// deep links

Patch release that exposes some Preference Center classes to Objective-C.

Changes

• Exposes UAPreferenceCenterResources, UAPreferenceCenterViewController and UAPreferenceAlertItemButtonto obj-c.

Minor release that fixes a potential channel restore issue on second run. The impact should be small since the channel create will return the same channel ID if the app has a device token or the app installed the Message Center module.

Changes

• Fixed app restore detection false positive on second run
• Added new optional PushNotificationDelegate method extendPresentationOptions(_:notification:completionHandler) that allows returning foreground presentation options with a callback instead of synchronously
• Added new Config method validate(logIssues:) to prevent logging on the config.

• Fixed OOTB Message Center deep linking to a Message on first display

Beta release for SDK 16.10.0 that adds support for live activities. To support live activities, you must call restore once after takeOff during application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) with all the live activity types that you might track with Airship:

  Airship.takeOff(config, launchOptions: launchOptions)

  Task {
      await Airship.channel.restoreLiveActivityTracking { restorer in
          await restorer.restore(
            forType: Activity<DeliveryAttributes>.self
          )
          await restorer.restore(
            forType: Activity<SomeOtherAttributes>.self
          )
      }
  }

Then whenever you want Airship to track an activity, call trackLiveActivity on the channel instance with the name of the activity:

  Task {
      await Airship.channel.trackLiveActivity(
          activity,
          name: "my-neat-activity"
      )
  }

You will then be able to send updates through the Airship Push API to the live activity using the name my-neat-activity.

• Moved Preference Center and Message Center OOTB UI to use its own window instead of the current key window.
