Version 8.2.1 (Aug. 11, 2020) 🔗

We’ve identified an issue affecting Chartboost iOS SDK 8.2.0 and 8.2.1 which can result in the app crashing. We are working on a fix that’ll be in place with version 8.3.0 in early September, or you can directly avoid the issue by ensuring that in your Chartboost integration the first Chartboost SDK call is NOT Chartboost setLoggingLevel:CBLoggingLevelVerbose;.

If you are using Chartboost SDK via any mediation other than AdMob and MoPub, and are not completely sure which Chartboost methods are called and in which order, to be extra safe, you could call some other Chartboost method directly as a first step on app initialization, before other SDKs perform any action (e.g: Chartboost getCustomId which can be called ignoring the returned value).

Notes:

• Internal improvements.

Version 8.2.0 (Jun. 30, 2020) 🔗

Improvements:

• Added new data use consent API with CCPA support.
• The didShowAd:error: ad delegate method is now called only once for CHBInterstitial and CHBRewarded ads. If some error happens after the ad is presented, it will be reported through a new property in the event passed on the didDismissAd: delegate callback.
• The didEarnReward: delegate callback is now called before a rewarded ad is dismissed due to some error. Note that it won’t be called if the ad presentation fails (didShowAd:error: is called with an error).
• The setMuted: method now works both before and after the SDK is started.

Fixes:

• Solved issue where showing the AppStore sheet on click would silently dismiss an ad. AppStore sheet is now enabled again.
• Device user agent field sent in API requests is now always up to date.
• Solved Reachability issues that in some cases would cause a crash.
• Solved banner issues that in some cases would cause a crash.
• Prevented unnecessary API requests when the SDK is started.

• SDK initialization is now immediate in most cases (for both the new and the deprecated initialization methods).

Notes:

• Deprecated ChartboostDelegate, startWithAppId:appSignature:delegate:, isAnyViewVisible, hasInterstitial:, hasRewardedVideo:, cacheInterstitial:, showInterstitial:, cacheRewardedVideo:, showRewardedVideo:, setDelegate:, didPassAgeGate:, handleOpenURL:sourceApplication:, handleOpenURL:sourceApplication:annotation:, setShouldRequestInterstitialsInFirstSession:, setShouldPauseClickForConfirmation:, setAutoCacheAds:, getAutoCacheAds.
