September 2026
Anchor link to| Date | Component | Change | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sep 30 | iOS SDK v7.2.8 | Fixed | Fixed a crash on launch in apps where another SDK wraps the app delegate (for example Firebase with FirebaseAppDelegateProxyEnabled). Learn more |
| Sep 29 | Web Push SDK v3.91.1 | Breaking | Inbox widget config texts (title, emptyInboxTitle, emptyInboxText) are now rendered as text instead of being injected as HTML. Pages using markup in them need to adjust. Learn more |
| Sep 29 | Web Push SDK v3.91.0 | Changed | subscriptionWidget now replaces enable with prompt.enabled and launcher.enabled (each switched on independently), and launcher.size with launcher.width/launcher.height. The launcher bell no longer shows for panel-managed applications, and a snippet still passing enable falls back to the older subscribe widgets. Learn more |
| Sep 29 | Web Push SDK v3.89.1 | Added | Added the Subscription widget (subscriptionWidget init parameter or Control Panel): a prompt plus a launcher bell, replacing the push subscription button, custom subscription popup, and Subscription Prompt in one component so visitors never see two competing asks. Learn more |
| Sep 25 | iOS SDK v7.2.7 | Added | Added Pushwoosh.media.setRichMediaColorScheme(_:) and the Pushwoosh_RICH_MEDIA_COLOR_SCHEME Info.plist key, so Rich Media built with prefers-color-scheme follows the app or system theme. Native in-app messages now support a dark appearance. Learn more |
| Sep 25 | iOS SDK v7.2.7 | Added | Added PWInbox.reportActionForMessageWithCode(_:) to report an inbox message as opened without running its action. Learn more |
| Sep 25 | iOS SDK v7.2.7 | Changed | The SDK now fetches the APNs device token itself when the app doesn’t pass it to handlePushRegistration(_:), so devices register without that call. Turned off with Pushwoosh_AUTO_DEVICE_TOKEN_REGISTRATION = NO. Learn more |
| Sep 24 | Android SDK v6.15.0 | Added | Added PushwooshInbox.markMessageOpened() to report an inbox message as opened without running its action. Learn more |
| Sep 22 | Web Push SDK v3.86.0 | Changed | On a panel-managed application, a value saved in the Control Panel now overrides the same parameter in the site’s init snippet. Learn more |
| Sep 21 | Web Push SDK v3.85.0 | Added | Added panel-managed mode: Web SDK settings (autoSubscribe, defaultNotificationTitle, defaultNotificationImage, safariWebsitePushID, subscribeWidget) can now be managed from the Control Panel instead of the init snippet. Learn more |
| Sep 21 | Web Push SDK v3.85.0 | Fixed | Fixed an unnecessary /unregisterDevice request on the first visit of a visitor who has never subscribed. Learn more |
| Sep 17 | Android SDK v6.14.0 | Added | Live Update notifications now open the app and follow deep links on tap like regular pushes, with opens counted in statistics. Added PushwooshLiveUpdates.getLiveUpdateActivityId() to tell them apart from regular pushes. Learn more |
| Sep 16 | Web Push SDK v3.82.0 | Added | App Inbox messages can now open a web popup instead of a link. The popup code arrives in action_params.wp and is exposed as IInboxMessagePublic.webPopupCode. Learn more |
| Sep 15 | Web Push SDK v3.81.0 | Added | A subscribe-action button inside a web popup now requests the push permission and reports the resulting granted/denied/default status back to the popup. Learn more |
| Sep 14 | Web Push SDK v3.78.0 | Added | Widget styling (--pw-inbox-* on the App Inbox widget, --pw-popup-* on web popups) now uses real CSS custom properties on the widget root, a supported public API that a page can override from its own CSS. Learn more |
| Sep 13 | Web Push SDK v3.76.0 | Added | The App Inbox widget now renders the same four cell layouts as the Control Panel campaign preview (classic, banner, captioned, carousel), so web inbox messages look as designed. Learn more |
| Sep 13 | Web Push SDK v3.76.0 | Breaking | sendDate on a public inbox message is now a UTC instant instead of local wall-clock time labeled Z. Inbox message content is now HTML-escaped, and IInboxMessagePublic gains required fields layout, iconUrl, heroUrl, carousel, and customData. Learn more |
| Sep 11 | Android SDK v6.13.0 | Added | Added RichMediaManager.setRichMediaColorScheme() and the com.pushwoosh.rich_media_color_scheme manifest key, so Rich Media built with prefers-color-scheme follows the app or system theme. Native in-app messages now support a dark appearance. Learn more |
| Sep 11 | Android SDK v6.13.0 | Fixed | A deep link from an opened notification now reaches the activity that is already running instead of a new copy of it. Learn more |
| Sep 09 | iOS SDK v7.2.6 | Changed | postEvent(_:withAttributes:completion:) now calls its completion once the server accepts the event, instead of waiting for the account’s in-app resources to finish downloading. Learn more |
| Sep 08 | Flutter SDK v2.3.24 | Added | The push payload on iOS now carries the foreground and onStart keys, as it already did on Android. Learn more |
| Sep 08 | Flutter SDK v2.3.24 | Fixed | Pushwoosh.initialize() now throws ArgumentError for a non-string app_id instead of crashing the app. Learn more |
| Sep 04 | Android SDK v6.12.0 | Added | Added rich message cards to pushwoosh-inbox-ui (banner, captioned, classic, carousel, video), selected by the message’s displayType, plus PushwooshInboxUi.onButtonClickListener for inline button taps. Learn more |
| Sep 02 | Web Push SDK v3.73.0 | Added | Added the pushNotifications init parameter (default true) and isPushAvailable(). Push notifications are no longer a precondition for initialize() to complete, so popups, inbox, events, and tags work even with push turned off. Learn more |
| Sep 02 | Web Push SDK v3.73.0 | Breaking | TypeScript consumers of the npm package see Pushwoosh.driver typed as IPushService | undefined. Code with strictNullChecks reading pushwoosh.driver.* directly needs a guard, preferably isPushAvailable(). Runtime behavior is unchanged. Learn more |

| Aug 31 | Web Push SDK v3.70.0 | Changed | A web popup with an expired Countdown block is no longer shown, even when triggered manually via show(). Learn more |
| Aug 27 | iOS SDK v7.2.5 | Changed | Push links now open in-app only for domains listed in the app’s Associated Domains. All other links open in the browser. Learn more |

| Aug 19 | Messaging API v2 | Added | Added use_latest_user_device to NotifySegment. When set, delivery goes only to each matched user’s most recently active device, not every device tied to that user ID. Learn more |
| Aug 14 | iOS SDK v7.2.4 | Fixed | Fixed native in-app messages flickering, disappearing, or getting stuck on screen when the app called the SDK from an in-app delegate callback. Learn more |

| Aug 13 | Messaging API v2 | Added | Added mode and timezone to FrequencyCapping. The new calendar-day mode anchors the count-and-days window to local midnight in the given IANA timezone, instead of a rolling window from send time. Learn more |
| Aug 12 | React Native SDK v6.1.59 | Added | Added setEmails() and setUserEmails() to register a user’s email address(es) for the email channel, matching push and email deliveries to the same user. Learn more |
| Aug 11 | Flutter SDK v2.3.23 | Added | Added setAppCode()/getAppCode() for switching the Pushwoosh application, and optionally its API endpoint, at runtime; an optional base_url parameter in initialize(); and presentInApp() to render a native in-app message from a config object. Learn more |

| Aug 07 | iOS SDK v7.2.2 | Fixed | Fixed a crash that could occur when the foreground push delegate was read, and a Rich Media rendering issue when campaign context or custom push data carried values that aren’t valid JSON. Learn more |
| Aug 07 | iOS SDK v7.2.2 | Changed | Hardened the SDK against malformed server and push payloads, improving the stability of Inbox actions, push handling, and registration. Learn more |

| Jul 28 | Messaging API v2 | Changed | Setting days: 0 and count: 0 together now disables frequency capping entirely, instead of returning an error. This makes it easier to turn off capping without extra logic on your end. Sending only one of days or count is still rejected. Learn more |

Learn more |

| Jun 24 | Messaging API v2 | Added | Notify can now build SMS from a saved preset: set payload-level sms_preset instead of inlining sms.body per locale (an inline sms.body still overrides the preset for that locale). Learn more |
