2.0.2

  • Fixed a bug where the sdk would cause an app's CPU usage to rise significantly if the device had no internet connection when the app started

2.0.1

  • Fixed rare 8badf00d crash in TFNetworkManager that happened when the app was in the background

2.0 - August 12, 2013

Improvements

  • ARC
  • All public TestFlight methods may be called from any thread or dispatch_queue
  • All public TestFlight methods (except for TFLog and takeOff:) are asynchronous, so there is never a wait on them
  • TestFlight never uses more than 1 network connection at a time
  • All network traffic is grouped together, sent at once, and transferred in MessagePack. This results in using less bandwidth and less network calls.
  • All network traffic if server is not reachable
  • Size of SDK reduced by 70%
  • New In App Update UI in an alert with landscape support. Should work for all different types of apps.
  • Manual Sessions: You can manually control session start and end. See TestFlight+ManualSessions.h for more information
  • Combining of back to back sessions. If a session starts less than 30 seconds from the last session which ended, the previous session is continued. You may change the time limit (or turn this off) using the TFOptionSessionKeepAliveTimeout option key.
  • No longer automatically starts a session on +takeOff: in order to support new background modes that might launch an app in the background.
  • TFOptionReportCrashes option to not install crash handlers
  • Remove all calls to dispatch_get_current_queue, it is deprecated

Changes

  • Removed all access to mac address
  • Added AdSupport.framework requirement (as a replacement for mac address to get accurate user counts)
  • Add format attribute to TFLog to show warnings for wrong format specifiers or not using a format string
  • Removed Questions
  • Removed Feedback View (along with backtrace option)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed addrinfo memory leak
  • Fixed possible -[TFAirTrafficController getNumberOrNilFrom:withKey:] crash when bad data is received.
  • CoreTelephony crash work around: this is a workaround of a iOS bug that causes deallocated instances of CTTelephonyNetworkInfo to receive notifications which causes crashes. Core Telephony is used to retrieve the device's mobile carrier.
  • Fix bug with crash reporting in iOS 7

1.2.4 - February 19, 2013

  • Fixed bug that caused crash reports to sometimes not send immediately (they would be resent later)

1.2.3 - January 8, 2013

  • Fixed typos in readme
  • Fixed bug where logs not sent on crash
  • Fixed bug where empty crash files were created (but not sent)
  • Cache path to TF's directory so it does not need to be regenerated every time
  • Use consts for setOptions:
  • Updated setDeviceIdentifier: comments to make them clearer
  • Remove potentially conflicting function name UIColorFromRGB
  • Fixed crash on bad in app update data
