January 2019 v1 Release (v1.0.0)

Welcome to the January 2019 v1 release of the Project Rome SDK for Android and iOS.

We've been busy working to improve the reliability and robustness of the Project Rome SDK and are happy to announce the v1 release! The bulk of the latest set of changes were made to the platform initialization and registration, which are required to use any of the technologies in the Project Rome SDK including: Device Relay, User Activities, Notifications, and Nearby Sharing.

Release Highlights (What's New)

We've updated the documentation to help you get started. If you've used previous versions of the SDK you'll want to pay particular attention the 5 sequential steps, to ensure a seamless onboarding experience.

1. Setup the platform
2. Subscribe to ConnectedDevicesAccountManager events to handle the user account
3. Subscribe to ConnectedDevicesNotificationRegistrationManager events
4. Start the platform
5. Retrieve user accounts known to the app

This, and much more, detail can be found in the Project Rome documentation .
