@braze/react-native-sdk 24.0.0

on Node.js NPM

Breaking

• Updates the native iOS bridge from Braze Swift SDK 18.2.1 to 19.1.0.
  • Raises the minimum supported iOS version from 12.0 to 15.0, matching the requirements of Braze Swift SDK 19.0.0.
  • Includes the Swift SDK change that persists the last known push token, so push unregistration succeeds after the app restarts.
• Updates the native Android SDK version bindings from Braze Android SDK 43.1.1 to 44.0.0.
• On iOS, replaces [BrazeReactDataTranslator formatPushPayload:withLaunchOptions:] with [BrazeReactDataTranslator formatPushPayload:withUrlOverride:].

Fixed

• Fixes an Android issue where Braze.BrazeBannerView did not release its underlying WebView when unmounted, keeping it registered with the SDK and retaining its context.
• Fixes an iOS issue where pod install failed in apps using use_frameworks! :linkage => :dynamic.
  • The pod now always builds as a static framework when use_frameworks! is enabled. This resolves an error of the pod being linked twice (dynamically + statically).
  • Apps without use_frameworks! or with static linkage are unchanged.
  • Thanks @huextrat for your contribution!
• Fixes an iOS issue where Release builds could fail with a Swift compiler crash on Xcode 26.6 (Swift 6.3.3) in apps that call BrazeReactInitializer.configure, including apps using the Braze Expo plugin.

Added

• Adds [[BrazeReactUtils sharedInstance] populateInitialPayloadFromNotificationResponse:].
  • Call this method from scene:willConnectToSession:options: with connectionOptions.notificationResponse.
  • This method addresses an iOS issue where Braze.getInitialPushPayload() returned null on a cold start from a push tap when the app uses the UIKit scene life cycle.

Changed

• Updates the Braze sample app to use React Native version 0.88.0.
  • This validates SDK compatibility with this version of React Native.
  • The iOS sample app now uses the UIKit scene life cycle with a SceneDelegate, as recommended in the React Native 0.88 template.
