๐ฅ Breaking changes in version 5.0.0
HockeySDK 5.0.0 raises the minimum API level to 15.
๐ In addition, we no longer support restricting builds by device id. The reason is that, with Android O,ANDROID_ID
no longer ensures a consistent way of identification of a user.To be ready for Android O, HockeySDK-Android now limits the
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
permission with themaxSdkVersion
filter. In some use cases, e.g. where an app contains a dependency that requires this permission,maxSdkVersion
makes it impossible for those dependencies to grant or request the permission. The solution for those cases is to declare thetools:node="replace"
manifest merging strategy later in the dependency tree:<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:node="replace"/>
