  • UI flexibility:

    • Introducing optional Torch button and cancel button through BlinkIdUISettings (setShowTorchButton and setShowCancelButton) and ReticleOverlayView.

  • Data extraction improvements:

    • Added Sponsor and BloodType result fields to BlinkIdMultiSideRecognizer.Result, BlinkIdSingleSideRecognizer.Result and VizResult

Accessibility Changes:

  • Refined UI to meet required contrast ratios, ensuring better readability for all users.
  • Clickable button areas have been enlarged to comply with accessibility standards, providing easier interaction and ensuring that users with motor impairments can comfortably use the interface.
  • Haptic feedback has been introduced throughout the scanning flow, highlighting important events and providing tactile confirmation to users

Deprecated Functionality:

  • IdBarcodeRecognizer is now marked as deprecated. We recommend transitioning to BlinkIdMultiSideRecognizer, which not only covers the functionality of IdBarcodeRecognizer but also offers additional features.

Minor API changes

  • split up Image class to Image and InputImage
    • InputImage is to be used as an input to the recognizers. Image will be the result of recognizer processing
    • InputImage retains ROI functionality, but is now not serializable
    • InputImage handles YUV planes more efficiently
    • Image is now always BGRA and is serializable
  • Add shouldShowTorchButton and shouldShowCancelButton to ReticleOverlayView constructor.

Bug fixes

  • removed UI thread blocking while waiting for recognition to complete
    • this fixes the ANR that can occur when app gets resumed from background on slow network connections when using online license keys
  • fix documentation generated links to Javadoc
  • fixed crash that occurred when HDR image was provided as Bitmap to the Direct API
    • if provided Bitmap is not in ARGB_8888 config, it will be automatically converted into ARGB_8888 config
    • only if the conversion is not possible, then the exception will be thrown

Other changes

  • native code is now built using NDK r26c and uses dynamic c++ runtime (libc++_shared.so)
    • in case when multiple different dependencies use the same runtime in the same app, the latest available version of the library should be packaged into the app
  • added support for license keys that support multiple application IDs
