Warning
Some users have reported crashes in apps built with version 3.4.10 of
Iterable's Android SDK. We're investigating the issue. In the meantime, please
test thoroughly. If you see crashes, revert to version 3.4.9.

This release includes support for encrypting some data at rest, and an option to
store in-app messages in memory.

Encrypted data

In Android apps with minSdkVersion 23 or higher (Android 6.0)
Iterable's Android SDK now encrypts the following fields when storing them at
rest:

  • email — The user's email address.
  • userId — The user's ID.
  • authToken — The JWT used to authenticate the user with Iterable's API.

(Note that Iterable's Android SDK does not store the last push payload at
rest—before or after this update.)

For more information about this encryption in Android, examine the source code
for Iterable's Android SDK: IterableKeychain.

Storing in-app messages in memory

This release also allows you to have your Android apps (regardless of minSdkVersion)
store in-app messages in memory, rather than in an unencrypted local file.
However, an unencrypted local file is still the default option.

To store in-app messages in memory, set the setUseInMemoryStorageForInApps(true)
SDK configuration option (defaults to false):

Java

IterableConfig.Builder configBuilder = new IterableConfig.Builder()
   // ... other configuration options ...
  .setUseInMemoryStorageForInApps(true);
IterableApi.initialize(context, "<YOUR_API_KEY>", config);

Kotlin

val configBuilder = IterableConfig.Builder()
   // ... other configuration options ...
  .setUseInMemoryStorageForInApps(true);
IterableApi.initialize(context, "<YOUR_API_KEY>", configBuilder.build());

When users upgrade to a version of your Android app that uses this version of
the SDK (or higher), and you've set this configuration option to true, the
local file used for in-app message storage (if it already exists) is deleted
However, no data is lost.

Android upgrade instructions

If your app targets API level 23 or higher, this is a standard SDK upgrade, with
no special instructions.

If your app targets an API level less than 23, you'll need to make the following
changes to your project (which allow your app to build, even though it won't
encrypt data):

  1. In AndroidManifest.xml, add <uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="androidx.security" />
  2. In your app's app/build.gradle:
    • Add multiDexEnabled true to the default object, under android.
    • Add implementation androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.1 to the dependencies.
