v8.0.0

iProov is pleased to announce the release of the next major version of the iProov Biometrics SDK.

• Brand-new user experience - In addition to a completely redesigned and modernised user experience, the SDK now offers a choice for Liveness Assurance transactions between LineDrawingFilter (also known as "canny") and a new NaturalFilter option with both clear and blur filters. The new immersive full screen removed the status and navigation bars.

• New networking stack - The SDK now streams over pure WebSockets for improved efficiency and flexibility, which avoids the need for the dependency on Socket.IO.

• Overhauled failure handling - The SDK will now provide more specific and accurate feedback for Genuine Presence Assurance claims (coming soon to Liveness Assurance).

• Ability to cancel the SDK - It is now possible for your app to electively cancel an in-progress iProov transaction.

• Improvements to Liveness Assurance - Liveness Assurance now benefits from a refined user experience, leading to a reduced false-reject rate.

• Support for additional languages - The SDK now ships with support for 9 additional languages alongside English.

Bug Fix

• MOB-954: Fix issue where some source code could be double obfuscated

Note: This is a major SDK version change with a number of breaking changes. See the Upgrade Guide for details.
