📚 3rd party library updates

🛠 Breaking changes

  • Removed @react-native-community/picker, replaced with @react-native-picker/picker. (#11029 by @brentvatne)
  • Removed “info”, “save” and “pin” functionalities from persistent notification shown in notification tray while developing an experience via Expo client on Android. (#10333, #10334 by @sjchmiela)
  • Removed support for androidShowExponentNotificationInShellApp property in app manifest (it was responsible for enabling persistent development notification in standalone apps). (#10335 by @sjchmiela)
  • AppLoading is extracted to the separate expo-app-loading module. (#10929 by @bbartec)
  • @unimodules/core
    • Removed org.unimodules.core.InvalidArgumentException. Please use its coded version, org.unimodules.core.errors.InvalidArgumentException, instead. (#9961 by @sjchmiela)
  • expo-analytics-amplitude
    • Upgraded native Amplitude iOS library from 4.7.1 to 6.0.0. This removes the IDFA code that was previously included with the Amplitude library. disableIDFA option for Amplitude.setTrackingOptions is removed. If you would like to collect the IDFA, you must be in the bare workflow. (#9880 by @bbarthec)
    • Renamed all methods to include the 'Async' suffix:
    • All methods now return a Promise. (#9212 by @cruzach)
  • expo-auth-session
    • expo-random is now a peer dependency rather than a dependency. (#11280 by @brentvatne)

    • Changed the way NotificationContent.data is calculated on iOS. Previously it was the contents of remote notification payload with all entries from under "body" moved from under "body" to root level. Now it's the sole unchanged contents of payload["body"]. Other fields of the payload can now be accessed on iOS through PushNotificationTrigger.payload (similarly to how other fields of native remote message can be accessed on Android under PushNotificationTrigger.remoteMessage). (#10453 by @sjchmiela)
    • Changed class responsible for handling Firebase events from FirebaseMessagingService to .service.NotificationsService on Android. (#10558 by @sjchmiela)
    • Changed how you can override ways in which a notification is reinterpreted from a StatusBarNotification and in which a Notification is built from defining an expo.modules.notifications#NotificationsScoper meta-data value in AndroidManifest.xml to implementing a BroadcastReceiver subclassing NotificationsService delegating those responsibilities to your custom PresentationDelegate instance. (#10558 by @sjchmiela)
    • Removed removeAllNotificationListeners method. You can (and should) still remove listeners using remove method on Subscription objects returned by addNotification…Listener. (#10883 by @sjchmiela)

🛠 Breaking changes

  • Android push notifications: your Google API key specified in google-services.json must allow access to the Cloud Messaging API if you have restricted your API key to access only specific APIs. In the Google Cloud console, browse to APIs & Services -> Credentials. Find the API key that is associated with your app and click the pencil icon to edit it. Under "API restrictions", if the key is restricted, add "Firebase Installations API" and "Cloud Messaging" to the set of allowed APIs and save the changes. (Technical note: Google changed the underlying Firebase Cloud Messaging library in com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:20.1.2 to depend on the Firebase Installations API, which applies API key restrictions. See Google's notes here and here.)
