Release 2.1.1

2.1.1 (2024-05-05)

Features

• update webrtc for ios privacy manifest files (#144) (d6fa512)

Starting May 1st, Apple has begun requiring that apps and commonly used third-party SDKs include a privacy manifest. Although this SDK is currently not on the list and should not be affected by the privacy restrictions, we've begun seeing reports that similar SDKs that aren't on the list have seen rejections. This update includes a privacy manifest to comply with the new restrictions. We highly suggest upgrading to 2.1.1 as soon as possible to avoid any issues with submitting to the Apple App Store.

Release 2.1.0

2.1.0 (2024-04-29)

Expo Plugin

We've released a new plugin for managed Expo projects. Visit the repo for installation details.

For reference, we also have an example app that has the plugin configured already.

LiveKit Components Support

The React Native SDK now works with our LiveKit Components SDK, providing more useful react hooks to help build your LiveKit app easier and quicker than before. Refer to our updated example app to see how to integrate the Components SDK into your app.

We also have additional docs and guides for the Components SDK at https://docs.livekit.io/reference/components/react/

Note: Not all functionality is supported from the Components SDK, as some functions provide Web-only UI that is incompatible with React-Native. For best compatibility, use the functions re-exported through this library only. Please let us know if there are any functions you'd like to see supported in React Native.

Deprecated functions

As a part of this introduction, some hooks have been deprecated:

• useRoom - wrap your components in a <LiveKitRoom> component instead and use more granular hooks to track state you're interested in.
• useParticipant - use useRemoteParticipant or useLocalParticipant instead
