Experimental API

Version 4.1.0

10-10-2017

  • Fix StrictMode warnings in Android Oreo
  • Deprecated Intercom.client().reset() in favour of Intercom.client().logout()
  • Intercom now runs a ContentProvider which automatically calls registerForLaterInitialisation(). This means Intercom no longer requires you to make a custom Application class. Intercom.initialize can now be called from your Activity if you would prefer.

Experimental API

  • Added an experimental API. To use it please import io.intercom.android.sdk.experimental.Intercom. The changes to the new API are:
    • Replaced Intercom.initialize(Application, String, String) with Intercom.boot(Application, IntercomSettings) Unlike initialize, boot does not need to be called in a custom Application class. It also results in the creation/ logging in of a user.
    • The methods registerUnidentifiedUser() and registerIdentifiedUser(Registration) are removed. Calling boot now registers a user. The IntercomSettings object has an optional email and userId. If either of those was provided an identified user is registered, otherwise an unidentified user is created.
    • To migrate from an unidentified to an identified user you can simply call updateUser(UserAttributes) where the UserAttributes object contains an userId and/or email.
    • The method logout() has been replaced with shutdown().

Version 3.0.0

21-07-2016

Our new Messenger is out of beta! You can read all about the updated design and new functionality here. If you are upgrading from an older version of our Messenger you may need to change some of the methods you used to call. You can see any changes you may need to make here. Where is 2.x? We're skipping it. We did this to align the Android SDK with our iOS and web counter parts.

Version 3.0.0-beta5

08-07-2016

Changes in the API

How GCM is set up has been simplified. There is not longer a method Intercom.client().setupGcm(token) and Intercom.client().registerIdentifiedUser(Registration.create().withGcmRegistrationId(token));

Instead of the methods above, in your res/values/strings.xml add the following line replacing YOUR_SENDER_ID. The sender is is in your google-services.json file as "project_number": "YOUR_SENDER_ID"

<string name="intercom_gcm_sender_id">YOUR_SENDER_ID</string>

What's new

  • We have added localization to the SDK. This can be set in your app settings https://app.intercom.io/a/apps/<YOUR_APP_ID>/settings/messenger
  • We have updated our default launcher icon.

Issues and bug fixes

  • Fixed crashes in the photoviewer
  • UI bugs and tweaks

Version 3.0.0-beta4

14-06-2016

Changes in the API

We no longer take a resource ID for the push notification icon. To set a push notification icon simply add an image named intercom_push_icon.png to your apps resource drawable directory. Its important to add this for all of the densities you support for example: /res/drawable-xxhdpi/intercom_push_icon.png /res/drawable-xhdpi/intercom_push_icon.png /res/drawable-hdpi/intercom_push_icon.png /res/drawable-mdpi/intercom_push_icon.png

This changes a couple of the public APIs in Intercom:

Intercom.client().setupGcm(token, R.drawable.intercom_push_icon); becomes Intercom.client().setupGcm(token);

Intercom.client().registerIdentifiedUser(Registration.create().withGcmCredentials(token, R.drawable.intercom_push_icon)); becomes Intercom.client().registerIdentifiedUser(Registration.create().withGcmRegistrationId(token));

What's new

  • We added in a new message pill to let users know when they have recieved replies offscreen in the conversation thread they are viewing

Issues and bug fixes

  • We fixed an issue that could result in inflated session counts.

Version 3.0.0-beta3

27-05-2016

New methods in the API

The Registration object now has a withGcmCredentials(String token, int logo) that you can use to set a GCM token and push logo. withGCMRegistrationId(String token) has been removed in favour of this method. Setting a token without a logo is a poorer user experience as we'll have to use a generic default.

In the Intercom class we've introduced a new API method that intelligently opens the messenger to the correct location based on context the messenger is aware of and a users actions in your app. It can open to the conversations list, to an existing conversation, or to compose a new conversation, void displayMessenger().

We've also corrected all methods that used GCM to be Gcm. This is a breaking change.

  • Lazily instantiate much of the object graph the messenger needs to work. This will speed up your app startup time!
  • More improvements to reduce overdraw in the messenger
  • Performance improvements to how we were rendering messages. They render roughly 30-50% faster now.
  • Removed permissions READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and MANAGE_DOCUMENTS. These permissions are optional for attachments. In most cases they are not required but certain OS and file provider combinations may fail to send the attachment without.
  • Fixed a bug with push only messages not following an included URI correctly.
  • Fixed a bug that was causing images to be cropped slightly in a chat style messages
  • Fixed a memory leak that sometimes lead to threads not being garbage collected issue#197 and issue#136

Version 3.0.0-beta2

12-05-2016

  • Fixed a crash that would occur if you sent 3+ manual messages to a user, opened your app, then sent another
  • Hide the back arrow when coming from the conversation screen back to the conversations list
  • Fixed the sizing for our FAB asset on the conversations list screen. It's more crisp now
  • Removed a lot of overdraw from inside the conversations list
  • Made some performance improvements to how we're rending messages

Version 3.0.0-beta1

06-05-2016

We're skipping 2.x entirely. This is being done to align the iOS and Android versions of Intercom such that going forward we'll have similar major.minor patches for features. It's easier for all of us internally too if we can refer to something in a platform agnostic way (Messenger V3!) :)

What's new

We’ve updated every pixel of our Messenger. The UI feels a lot more native, fluid and is more visually appealing while fitting into the visual aesthetic of your app better too.

Part of this involves a new Intercom Launcher that you can show in your app to let your users instantly access the Messenger.

Dependencies

As part of the work to bring a better visual aesthetic to the Messenger we started using some new dependencies. Chief amongst these are the support libraries Google provides. This library now relies on:

  • com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.3.0
  • com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.3.0
  • com.android.support:design:23.3.0

If you use these libraries in your project be aware that we plan to stay up to date with releases and this will, by default, transitively force your app to use these versions too.

We also added some dependencies that we're namespacing to avoid version conflicts and other conflicts:

  • com.facebook.rebound:rebound:0.3.8 for nice spring animations
  • com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.7.0 for gif support

And on top of that we've updated OkHttp and Retrofit to the 3.x and 2.x versions. These are also namespaced so that won't confict with anything in your code.

New methods on the public interface

  • void setLauncherVisibility(Visibility visibility) will toggle whether the new Intercom launcher appears in your app. Valid parameters are Intercom.Visibility.VISIBLE and Intercom.Visibility.GONE. The default is GONE.
  • void setInAppMessageVisibility(Visibility visibility) will toggle whether in-app messages appear in your app when sent to a user. Valid parameters are Intercom.VISIBLE and Intercom.GONE. The default is VISIBLE.
  • void hideMessenger() will close the Intercom Messenger if it's onscreen. The typical use case we've seen for something like this is that an important event has happened in the background of your app (eg a user has taken 10,000 steps) and you need to display something immediately. We'd advise normally using an Intent to start your activity if that's possible within your app's architecture; we're accounting for the possibility that it isn't always possible with this method.
  • int getUnreadConversationCount will return the last known number of unread conversations that a user has.
  • void addUnreadConversationCountListener(UnreadConversationCountListener listener) lets you set a listener that will be notified every time the known conversation count for this user changes. For example, you may want to display a badge somewhere in your app that exposes to a user the number of unread conversations they have. Multiple listeners can be registered at a time. A strong reference is kept to each listener.
  • void removeUnreadConversationCountListener(UnreadConversationCountListener listener) removes this listener from the list that will be notified of unread conversation count updates.

Removed methods from public interface

All deprecated methods have been dropped from Intercom, these include

  • setMessagesHidden(boolean visibility) in favour of two new visibility methods explained below
  • openGCMMessage(Uri data) in favour of openGCMMessage(Intent intent)

In addition some other methods have been dropped:

  • setPreviewPosition has been removed with no replacement
  • setVisibility has been removed in favour of setLauncherVisibility and setInAppMessageVisibility

Miscellaneous

  • We've hidden our resources so you won't see all our layouts, colours etc when you're trying to reference your own resources

Version 1.1.3

27-07-2015

  • Integrated a smarter system for retrieving and displaying new messages sent while an app is open, fixes issue#109
  • Lowercased font assets names and added some better error handling for when fonts can't be made, fixes issue#107
  • Repackaged all of our dependencies except the play services library, resolves issue#50
  • Fixed crash in preview service where the rootview was sometimes not inflating issue#108

Notes: When updating to this version from a previous version we recommend cleaning the project as you include the v1.1.3. If you're using eclipse make sure to include the new fonts and repackaged dependencies jar

Version 1.1.2

06-07-2015

  • Namespaced fonts and raw assets. Every asset should be prefixed with 'intercomsdk' to avoid conflicts, let us know if you see one that isn't
  • Fixed a crash when loading a conversation if a participant had a leading space in their name
  • Fixed issue#104, a memory leak
  • Fixed a GCM related issue. Some saw an error stacktrace caused by our broadcast receiver for gcm setting a result on on unordered broadcast. That broadcast was the OS pinging the broadcast receiver (typically on first install). This is a benign 'error' that doesn't cause any issues, but we're going to try to ignore it anyway. You shouldn't see that error in your logs any more.
