11.3.0
Fixed
- Fixes a behavior where calling the
logClick
bridge method in HTML in-app messages with""
as the button ID would log an error.- Instead, this would log an in-app message body click to match other platforms.
Added
- Adds support for the Braze Banner Cards product.
- For usage details, refer to our tutorial here.
11.2.0
Fixed
- Fixes the Objective-C
Braze.delegate
declaration to beweak
like the Swift variant.
Added
Braze.prepareForDelayedInitialization
now takes an optional parameteranalyticsBehavior: PushEnqueueBehavior
.- Braze uses this value to determine whether any Braze push payloads received before initialization should be processed once initialization is complete.
PushEnqueueBehavior.queue
will enqueue received push payloads to be processed upon initialization. This option is selected by default.PushEnqueueBehavior.drop
will drop received push payloads, ignoring them.
- Adds configuration properties to customize the
lineSpacing
,maxLineHeight
,minLineHeight
, andlineHeightMultiple
for the header and message texts in full and modal in-app messages. - Updates
BrazeContentCardUI.ViewController.Attributes.defaults
to be avar
to allow directly editing the property for convenience.
11.1.1
Fixed
- Fixes an issue introduced in
11.0.0
where the push subscription status would be sent to the backend with an inaccurate value at startup, causing an unexpected subscription state. The SDK now sends up the accurate subscription status at each startup.
11.1.0
⚠️ Important: This version has a known issue related to push subscription status. Upgrade to version 11.1.1
instead.
Fixed
- Fixes an issue introduced in
11.0.0
where the push token status would not always be reported in all circumstances. - Fixes a display bug where an in-app message would appear truncated after certain keyboard dismissal scenarios.

- Adds support for Swift 6 strict concurrency checking.
- Relevant public Braze classes and data types now conform to the
Sendable
protocol and can be safely used across concurrency contexts. - Main thread-only APIs are now marked with the
@MainActor
attribute. - We recommend using Xcode 16.0 or later to take advantage of these features while minimizing the number of warnings generated by the compiler. Previous versions of Xcode may still be used, but some features may generate warnings.
- Relevant public Braze classes and data types now conform to the
- When integrating push notification support manually, you may need to update the
UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate
conformance to use the@preconcurrency
attribute to prevent warnings.- Applying the
@preconcurrency
attribute on protocol conformance is only available in Xcode 16.0 or later. Reference our sample integration code here. - As of Xcode 16.0, Apple has not yet audited the
UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate

- Adds support to subscribe to “Push Received” events via
Braze.Notifications.subscribeToUpdates(payloadTypes:_:)
.- The following notifications will trigger this subscription:
- Notifications received in the foreground
- Notifications with the field
content-available: true
received in the foreground or background
- The following notifications will not trigger this subscription:
- Notifications received while terminated
- Notifications received in the background without the field
content-available: true
- The new parameter
payloadTypes
will allow you to subscribe to “Push Opened” events, “Push Received” events, or both. If the parameter is omitted, it will subscribe to both by default. - If you are using manual push integration, you will need to first implement
UNUserNotificationCenter.userNotificationCenter(_:willPresent:withCompletionHandler:)
, and make sure to callBraze.Notifications.handleForegroundNotification(notification:)
within your implementation. Then, usesubscribeToUpdates
as noted above. See our guide on push notification integration for more info.
- The following notifications will trigger this subscription:

6.6.1
Fixed
- Fixes a crash in the geofences feature that could occur when the number of monitored regions exceeded the maximum count.
- Fixes an issue introduced in
6.3.1
that would always update a user’s push subscription status tooptedIn
on app launch if push permissions were authorized on the device settings.- The SDK now will only send the subscription status at app launch if the device notification settings goes from denied to authorized.
Braze.ContentCard.logClick(using braze: Braze)
will now log a click regardless of whether theContentCard
has aClickAction
.- This behavior differs from the default API
Braze.ContentCard.Context.logClick()
, which has the safeguard of requiring aClickAction
to log a click.
- This behavior differs from the default API
6.6.0
Fixed
- Fixes an issue in HTML in-app messages where custom event and purchase properties would always convert values for
1

Added
- Adds a simplified method for integrating push notification support into your application:
- Automatic push integration can be enabled by setting
configuration.push.automation = true
on your configuration object.- This eliminates the need for the manual push integration outlined in the Implement the push notification handlers manually tutorial section.
- When enabled, the SDK will automatically implement the necessary system delegate methods for handling push notifications.
- Compatibility with other push providers, whether first or third party, is maintained. The SDK will automatically handle only Braze push notifications, while original system delegate methods will be executed for all other push notifications.
- Each automation step can be independently enabled or disabled. For example,
configuration.push.automation.requestAuthorizationAtLaunch = false
can be used to prevent the automatic request for push permissions at launch. - Resources:
- Updated Standard Push Notifications tutorial.
Braze.Configuration.Push.automation
property.Braze.Configuration.Push.Automation
type (provides details about the behavior of each automation step).
- Automatic push integration can be enabled by setting
- Adds the
Braze.Configuration.forwardUniversalLinks
configuration. When enabled, the SDK will redirect universal links from Braze campaigns to the appropriate system methods. - Adds the
Braze.Notifications.subscribeToUpdates(_:)

Fixed
- Fixes an issue where the previous user’s data would not be flushed after calling
changeUser(userId:sdkAuthSignature:)
when the SDK authentication feature is enabled. - A content card impression can now be logged once per session. Previously, the Braze-provided Content Cards UI would limit to a single impression per card at maximum, irrespective of sessions.
- Fixes an issue that previously caused push notification URLs with percent-encoded characters to fail during decoding.
- Fixes a behavior to automatically set a user’s push subscription state to
optedIn
after push permissions have explicitly been authorized via the Settings app. - Correctly hides shadows on in-app messages that are configured with a transparent background.
- Fixes a rare crash occurring when deinitializing the Braze instance.
Added

andBraze.ModalContext
.
6.2.0
Fixed
- Fixes a crash introduced in 6.0.0 when displaying an HTML in-app message using the
BrazeUICompat
module. - Removed a system call that is known to be slow on older versions of macOS. This resolves the SDK hanging during initialization on Mac Catalyst when running on affected macOS versions.
Added
- Adds support for
target
attributes on anchor tags in HTML in-app messages (e.g.<a href="..." target="_blank"></a>
).- Adding the
target
attribute to links will allow them to open in a new webview without dismissing the current in-app message. - This behavior can be disabled via the
linkTargetSupport
property of theBrazeInAppMessageUI.HtmlView.Attributes
struct. - See our Custom HTML in-app messages documentation page for more details.
- Adding the
6.1.0
Fixed
- Fixes an issue that led to disproportionately large close buttons on in-app messages when the user has set a large font size in the device settings.
- Fixes an issue that would lock the screen in a specific orientation after the dismissal of an in-app message customized to be presented in that orientation.
- This issue only impacted iOS 16.0+ devices.
Added
- Adds new versions of
setCustomAttribute
to the User object to support nested custom attributes.- Renames
User.setCustomAttributeArray(key: String, array: [String]?)
tosetCustomAttribute(…)
to align it with other custom attribute setters, and adds “string” to theaddTo
andremoveFrom
attribute array methods to clarify which custom attributes they’re used for.
- Renames
6.0.0
Breaking
- The in-app message data models sent to
BrazeInAppMessagePresenter.present(message:)
now contain remote asset URLs. Previously, these data models would contain local asset URLs.- This change is only breaking in two situations:
- When implementing a custom
BrazeInAppMessagePresenter
. - When relying on asset URLs being local in the message provided by
BrazeInAppMessageUIDelegate.inAppMessage(_:displayChoiceForMessage:)
- When implementing a custom
- The in-app message data models available from the other
BrazeInAppMessageUIDelegate
methods remain unchanged and contain local asset URLs.
- This change is only breaking in two situations:
Added
- The in-app message context now provides two additional methods:
getLocalAssets(urls:destinationURL:completionHandler:)
: Retrieves the local assets associated with the given remote asset URLs.withLocalAssets(message:destinationURL:completionHandler:)
: Returns a modified in-app message with all remote asset URLs replaced with local ones.
5.14.0
Fixed
- VoiceOver now correctly focuses on in-app message views when they are presented.
- Fixes an issue causing in-app messages with re-eligibility disabled to display multiple times under certain conditions.
- Fixes an issue where modal and full in-app message headers were truncated on devices running iOS versions lower than 16 when displaying non-ASCII characters.
- The dynamic variant of
BrazeUI.framework
in the release artifactbraze-swift-sdk-prebuilt.zip
is now an actual dynamic framework. Previously, this specific framework was mistakenly distributed as a static framework.
Added
- Adds the
BrazeSDKAuthDelegate
protocol as a separate protocol fromBrazeDelegate
, allowing for more flexible integrations.- Apps implementing
BrazeDelegate.braze(_:sdkAuthenticationFailedWithError:)
should migrate to useBrazeSDKAuthDelegate
and remove the old implementation. TheBrazeDelegate
method will be removed in a future major release.
- Apps implementing
5.13.0
Fixed
- Fixes an issue where the SDK would automatically track body clicks on non-legacy HTML in-app messages.
Added
- Adds the synchronous
deviceId
property on the Braze instance.deviceId(queue:completion:)
is now deprecated.deviceId() async
is now deprecated.
- Adds the
automaticBodyClicks
property to the HTML in-app message view attributes. This property can be used to enable automatic body clicks tracking on non-legacy HTML in-app messages.- This property is
false
by default. - This property is ignored for legacy HTML in-app messages.
- This property is
5.12.0

Added
- Adds
json()
anddecoding(json:)
public methods to the Feature Flag model object for JSON encoding/decoding.
5.11.2
Fixed
- Fixes a crash occurring when the SDK is configured with a flush interval of
0
and network connectivity is poor.
5.11.1
Fixed
- Fixes an issue preventing the correct calculation of the delay when retrying failed requests. This led to a more aggressive retry schedule than intended.
- Improves the performance of Live Activity tracking by de-duping push token tag requests.
- Fixes an issue in
logClick(using:)
where it would incorrectly open theurl
field in addition to logging a click for metrics. It now only logs a click for metrics.- This applies to the associated APIs for content cards, in-app messages, and news feed cards.
- It is still recommended to use the associated
Context
object to log interactions instead of these APIs.
Added
- Adds
BrazeKit.overrideResourceBundle
andBrazeUI.overrideResourceBundle
to allow for custom resource bundles to be used by the SDK.- This feature is useful when your setup prevents you from using the default resource bundle (e.g. Tuist).
5.11.0
Added
- Adds support for Live Activities via the
liveActivities
module on the Braze instance.- This feature provides the following new methods for tracking and managing Live Activities with the Braze push server:

ProcessInfo
, allowing low power mode notifications to trigger correctly.
Changed
- Renames the
BrazeLocation
class toBrazeLocationProvider
to avoid shadowing the module of the same name (SR-14195).
