v3.2.1

18.06.2021 3.2.1

Fixed

• Fixed cancelled or interrupted events not firing if the back button is pressed on single page apps using popstate.
• Fixed bug in how the UI scales in size to fit the whole screen.
• Fixed cases when abort events were fired twice due to an internal API race condition.
• UX GPA: moveLeft and moveRight states have been removed from mobile devices. moveUp, moveDown, moveCloser and moveBack remain in place.
• UX GPA: limited video config will now only prompt for moveCloser and moveBack.

Added

• Added error_too_many_requests language string which is displayed when rate limiting is enforced at the client side.

v3.2.0

Fixed

• Fixed "Keep still" message from disappearing while streaming when show_countdown is set to true.
• Fix rotate portrait issues on Android devices.
• Fix various fullscreen flicker issues.
• Fix race condition when exiting fullscreen where the UI may not hand control back to the host page.

Added

UI Customisation

• New options have been added to customise the UI colours:
  • header_background_color
  • header_text_color
  • footer_background_color
  • footer_text_color
  • progress_bar_color
  • loading_tint_color
  • not_ready_tint_color
  • ready_tint_color
  • oval_scanning_color
  • liveness_tint_color
  • liveness_scanning_tint_color
• A new close_button URL option has been added to customise the close button.

Timeout Logic

• The network_timeout option has been added, defaulting to 10 seconds. See the docs for more details.
• If we don't receive a response from our backend in this time, we error with error_network.

Iframe Bridge

• Iframe Bridge for Mobile Safari has been added in order to support Liveness transactions, where the device would otherwise report unsupported.
  • New events:
    • iframe_bridge
  • New slots:
    • iframe_bridge_title
    • iframe_bridge_button
  • New language strings:
    • iframe_bridge_title
    • iframe_bridge_button

General

• Added missing errors error_asset_fetch and error_device_motion_unsupported to readme.
• Added client_camera and sdk_unsupported to default English language file: https://github.com/iProov/web/blob/master/iproov-en.json.

Changed

• Various changes have been made to feedback and reason values within the error and failure event details that are passed back to match the documentation.
  • user_timeout is now failure_user_timeout and only passed within the failed event. This was being triggered as an error event when the token had been used before or was invalid which has now been replaced with error_expired_token.
  • error_camera is now client_camera which is fired when the device camera does not provide video for 8 seconds.
• The SDK has been split out into constituent chunks which are lazy loaded on demand. This increases page speed.

v3.1.10

Fixed

• Stability: internal resource lifecycle management has been improved to reduce crashes due to memory leakage.
• UX: touch scrolling is now blocked between the started event and exiting fullscreen.
• UX: Page jank when entering fullscreen, particularly in Chrome, has been fixed - see changes.
• Allow landscape: an issue causing broken images in the rotate slot has been fixed.
• Cameras: An issue where mobile devices could choose the environment facing camera has been fixed.
• Safari Desktop: AbortError is now handled. These cases remain subject to video data timeout checks.

Changed

• started event behaviour has been changed in a BC-safe way to reduce page jank:
  • The started event is now sent after entering fullscreen rather than in parallel
  • The started slot manager callback no longer hides all slots when entering fullscreen.
  • The streaming event is the soonest event that all slots are hidden.
• Internal UI lifecycle management has been tidied which may yield a slight improvement in UI performance.

v3.1.9

Fixed

• Problems entering fullscreen will no longer abort the transaction. In these rare cases, transactions will be allowed to continue.
• Opera Touch is now a supported browser after working around a WebKit issue.
• When running Web SDK inside a react-native-webview, it no longer flags the environment as unsupported.

Internals

• The following are now sent to the backend to improve telemetry and customer support:
  • When Web SDK detects it's within an iframe, the window innerWidth and innerHeight are sent.
  • Fullscreen status is sent.

3.1.8

20.4.2021 3.1.8

Fixed

• When a user cancels inside Native Bridge, the cancelled event is now correctly triggered from the Web SDK.
• UI text overflow is now elegantly managed, rather than clipping at the edges.
• Speculative fix to some Android webview environments crashing due to an undefined browser name.
• Liveness transactions no longer experience UX issues when rotating to and from landscape orientation.
• The SDK will issue a clear error message if it receives an invalid looking token to the SDK, rather than displaying a server error.
• The unsupported event now aborts the claim with a device_unsupported code which will aid analytics.

3.1.7

14.4.2021 3.1.7

Fixed

• is_native_bridge property restored to event payloads. Previously this was only present during native bridge claims.
• Fixed streamed event to fire when all video frames have streamed. Previously this erroneously fired after encoding.

3.1.6

5.3.2021 3.1.6

Fixed

• Fixed UI animation loop not always stopping
• Improve scanline synchronisation with flashing
• Various performance improvements

Changed

• Optimised UI opening / rotation experience

3.1.5

4.3.2021 3.1.5

Fixed

• Fixed starting in landscape orientation then rotating to portrait UI issues
• Improved GPA flash timing, particularly on Android
• Improved low FPS detection
• Added missing feedback property from some error events
• Fixed documentation to correctly reflect error_fullscreen_change and error_no_face_found event names
• Fixed instances when rare Android Native SDK crashes may take the Web SDK with them, too
• Fixed occasional .emit function not found errors
• Fixed issues when lower end Android cameras were unable to request a video feed in a useful aspect ratio

Added

• Added error_no_face_found to public documentation

3.1.4

12.2.2021 3.1.4

Fixed

• Fixed an issue where the progress bar would not display if show_countdown is enabled.
• Fixed kiosk_mode issue on iPads where the camera is drawn partly off screen.
• Fixed an issue where the camera remains active after a timeout occurs.
• Fixed an issue where multiple cameras broadcasts multiple times. It now broadcasts once.
• Fixed an issue where slot encapsulation was broken and events may be bound to slots outside the component.
• Fixed iPads on iOS < 14 showing as unsupported in 3.1.x.
• Fixed an issue where specifying a path with base_url was not respected.
• Fixed an issue where iframed Web SDK components time out waiting for gyro information in mobile Safari.
  • This is a WebKit issue: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221399
  • Until this is fixed, iframed components in mobile Safari will immediately fire the unsupported event when using Liveness.

Changed

• Internals: changed Web Component attachment mode to closed.
• Internals: the Web SDK will now connect and emit console warnings and errors to our Socket.IO server for quality improvement and crash analysis.
• Bundle size: the main Web SDK entrypoint no longer includes Baidu and KaiOS build targets
  • These browsers currently do not support our minimum requirements
  • The iProovSupport component is still built to target these browsers so you can still establish support
  • The main package size has reduced by 18% with no material change to browser support

Added

• 20% more π

3.1.3

6.1.2021 3.1.3
