Firebase iOS Release Notes

To see release notes for the Firebase console and for other Firebase platforms and related SDKs, see the Firebase Release Notes.

Version 5.14.0 - December 4, 2018

Analytics

  • Updated names for certain internal events and parameters.
  • The FirebaseAnalytics CocoaPod corrects its dependency on the GoogleAppMeasurement CocoaPod (#2151).

Authentication

  • Add support for custom FDL domain links (#2121).

Dynamic Links

  • Introduced a new componentsWithLink:domainURIPrefix: and deprecated the existing componentsWithLink:domain: (#1962, #2017, #2078, #2097, #2112).

Cloud Firestore

  • Added a garbage collection process to on-disk persistence that removes older documents. This is enabled by default, and the SDK will attempt to periodically clean up older, unused documents once the on-disk cache passes a threshold size (default: 100 MB). This threshold can be configured by setting FIRFirestoreSettings.cacheSizeBytes. It must be set to a minimum of 1 MB. The garbage collection process can be disabled entirely by setting FIRFirestoreSettings.cacheSizeBytes to kFIRFirestoreCacheSizeUnlimited.

Version 5.13.0 - November 20, 2018

Cloud Firestore

  • Changed how the SDK handles locally updated documents while syncing those updates with Cloud Firestore servers. This can lead to slight behavior changes and may affect the SnapshotMetadata.hasPendingWrites metadata flag.
  • Eliminated superfluous update events for locally cached documents that are known to lag behind the server version. Instead, the SDK buffers these events until the client has caught up with the server.
  • Moved from Objective-C gRPC framework to gRPC C++. If you're manually tracking dependencies, the gRPC, gRPC-ProtoRPC, and gRPC-RxLibrary frameworks have been replaced with gRPC-C++. (#1968)

Dynamic Links

  • Delete deprecated source files. (#2038)

If you don't use the new flag, for iOS 10 and above, direct channel data messages are delivered in FIRMessagingDelegate messaging:didReceiveMessage:; for iOS 9 and below, direct channel data messages are delivered in Apple's AppDelegate application:didReceiveRemoteNotification:fetchCompletionHandler:. So, if you set the useFIRMessagingDelegateForDirectMessageDelivery to true, direct channel data messages are delivered in FIRMessagingDelegate across all iOS versions. (#1875)
  • Fixed an issue where callback was not triggered with invalid topic names. (#1880)

ML Kit

  • Added support for face contour detection.
  • Added synchronous face detection API resultsInImage:error:.

  • Added whereField(arrayContains:) query filter to find documents where an array field contains a specific element.
  • Fixed compilation with older Xcode versions (#1517).
  • Fixed a performance issue where large write batches with hundreds of changes would take a long time to read and write and consume excessive memory. Large write batches should now see no penalty.
  • Fixed a performance issue where adding a listener for a large collection (thousands of documents) would take a long time in offline mode (#1477).
  • Fixed an issue that could cause deleted documents to momentarily re-appear in the results of a listener, causing a flicker. (#1591)

Please use Xcode 8.0 or later and upgrade your app's minimum target to iOS 8 or above, for example by adding "platform :ios, '8.0' to your Podfile. To see the breakdown of worldwide iOS versions, go to Apple's App Store support page.

Changes related to CocoaPods:

  • Ensure Firebase/Core is included in your Podfile.
  • The minimum CocoaPods version required is now 1.4.0.
  • The Authentication, Realtime Database, Core, Cloud Firestore, Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK, FCM, and Storage SDKs are now Source Pods. This means you can directly see the source code in your project and see the full call stack while debugging.

Firebase Core

Realtime Database

  • Minor bug fixes.

Dynamic Links

  • The shared instance of FIRDynamicLinks is no longer nullable.
  • Removed deprecated FIRDynamicLinkMatchConfidence property. This is replaced by FIRDLMatchType.

Instance ID

  • Added APIs for setting, incrementing, and getting metrics.
  • Deprecated the API to increment and decrement counters, use the new metrics API instead.

Remote Config

  • Changed the designated initializer for FIRRemoteConfigSettings to return a nonnull FIRRemoteConfigSettings object.

Storage

  • Removed downloadURLs property on StorageMetadata. Use StorageReference.downloadURL(completion:) to obtain a current download URL.
  • The maxOperationRetryTime timeout now applies to calls to StorageReference.getMetadata(completion:) and StorageReference.updateMetadata(completion:). These calls previously used the maxDownloadRetryTime and maxUploadRetryTime timeouts.

Cloud Firestore

  • Replaced the DocumentListenOptions object with a simple boolean. Instead of calling addSnapshotListener(options: DocumentListenOptions.includeMetadataChanges(true)), call addSnapshotListener(includeMetadataChanges:true).
  • Replaced the QueryListenOptions object with simple booleans. Instead of calling addSnapshotListener(options: QueryListenOptions.includeQueryMetadataChanges(true) .includeDocumentMetadataChanges(true)), call addSnapshotListener(includeMetadataChanges:true).
  • QuerySnapshot.documentChanges() is now a method which optionally takes includeMetadataChanges:true. By default, even when listening to a query with includeMetadataChanges:true, metadata-only document changes are suppressed in documentChanges().
  • Replaced the SetOptions object with a simple boolean. Instead of calling setData(["a": "b"], options: SetOptions.merge()), call setData(["a": "b"], merge: true).
  • Replaced the SnapshotOptions object with direct use of the FIRServerTimestampBehavior on DocumentSnapshot. Instead of calling data(SnapshotOptions.serverTimestampBehavior(.estimate)), call data(serverTimestampBehavior: .estimate).
  • Added ability to control whether DocumentReference.getDocument() and Query.getDocuments() should fetch from server only, cache only, or attempt server and fall back to the cache (which was the only option previously, and is now the default.)
  • Added new mergeFields:(NSArray<id>*) override for set() which allows merging of a reduced subset of fields.

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

  • Removed FIR prefix on FIRFunctionsErrorCode in Swift.

ML Kit

  • ML Kit for Firebase is now available as a public beta. To learn more, read ML Kit for Firebase.

Known Issues

  • The -all_load option linker option does not work with Firebase 5.0.0.
  • There is an issue preventing the use of bitcode in some of the new ML Kit subspecs.

Version 4.13.0 - April 13, 2018

Authentication

  • Resolved a crash which occurred when certain Firebase IDTokens were being parsed.

Analytics

  • Added a new public method resetAnalyticsData to clear all Analytics data as well as reset App Instance ID.
  • Improved In-App Purchase report: Analytics can report accurate discounted price for introductory offer purchases.
  • Other bug fixes.

Version 4.12.0 - April 10, 2018

Authentication

  • Adds getIDTokenResultWithCompletion: and getIDTokenResultForcingRefresh:completion: APIs which call back with an AuthTokenResult object. The Auth token result object contains the ID token JWT string and other properties associated with the token including the decoded available payload claims.
  • Adds the updateCurrentUser:completion: API which sets the currentUser on the calling Auth instance to the provided user object.
  • Adds client-side validation to prevent setting handleCodeInApp to false when performing email-link authentication. If handleCodeInApp is set to false an invalid argument exception is thrown.
  • Adds support for passing the deep link (which is embedded in the sign-in link sent via email) to the signInWithEmail:link:completion: and isSignInWithEmailLink: methods during an email/link sign-in flow.

FCM

  • Added new methods that provide completion handlers for topic subscription and unsubscription.

Performance Monitoring

  • Resolved a crash caused by a multithreading issue.

Remote Config

  • Improved documentation on InstanceIDs for GDPR.

Storage

  • Deprecated downloadURLs property on StorageMetadata. Use StorageReference.downloadURLWithCompletion() to obtain a current download URL.

Cloud Firestore

  • Resolved a regression in the Firebase iOS SDK release 4.11.0 that could cause getDocument() requests made while offline to be delayed by up to 10 seconds rather than returning from cache immediately.
  • Added a new Timestamp class to represent timestamp fields, currently supporting up to microsecond precision. It can be passed to API methods anywhere a system Date is currently accepted. To make DocumentSnapshots read timestamp fields back as Timestamps instead of Dates, you can set the newly added property areTimestampsInSnapshotsEnabled in FirestoreSettings to true. Note that the current behavior (DocumentSnapshots returning system Dates) will be removed in a future release. Using Timestamps avoids rounding errors from the system Date being stored as a floating-point value.

Version 4.11.0 - March 20, 2018

Authentication

  • Adds new API to determine the sign-in methods associated with an email address.
  • Adds new API to allow authentication using only an email link (Passwordless Authentication with email link).

Instance ID

  • Improved documentation on InstanceID usage for GDPR.
  • Improved the keypair handling during GCM to FCM migration. If you are migrating from GCM to FCM, we encourage you to update to this version and above.

Cloud Firestore

  • If the SDK's attempt to connect to the Cloud Firestore backend neither succeeds nor fails within 10 seconds, the SDK will consider itself "offline", causing getDocument() calls to resolve with cached results, rather than continuing to wait.
  • Fixed a race condition after calling enableNetwork() that could result in a "Mutation batchIDs must be acknowledged in order" assertion crash.
  • Fixed undefined symbols in the absl namespace.

Cloud Functions for Firebase Client SDK

Version 4.10.1 - March 9, 2018

Cloud Firestore

  • Fixed a regression in the 4.10.0 Firebase iOS SDK release that prevented the SDK from communicating with the backend until successfully authenticating via Firebase Authentication or after unauthenticating and re-authenticating. All reads and writes were silently executed only locally rather than being sent as unauthenticated requests.

Version 4.8.1 - January 18, 2018

Analytics

  • Improved the In-App Purchase report. Analytics can now detect subscription restoration or repurchase and non-consumables and can report auto-renewable and non-renewing subscriptions.

Authentication

  • Resolved a bug where the FIRAuthResult object returned following a phone number authentication always contained a nil FIRAdditionalUserInfo object. Now, the FIRAdditionalUserInfo object is never nil and its newUser field is populated correctly.

Realtime Database

  • Added a commit method that takes no completion handler to FIRWriteBatch.
  • Queries can now be created from an NSPredicate.
  • Added SnapshotOptions API to control how DocumentSnapshots return unresolved server timestamps.
  • Added disableNetwork() and enableNetwork() methods to Firestore class, allowing for explicit network management.
  • For non-existing documents, DocumentSnapshot.data() now returns nil instead of throwing an exception. A non-nullable QueryDocumentSnapshot is introduced for Queries to reduce the number of nil-checks in your code.
  • Snapshot listeners (with the includeMetadataChanges option enabled) now receive an event with snapshot.metadata.isFromCache set to true if the SDK loses its connection to the backend. A new event with snapshot.metadata.isFromCache set to false will be raised once the connection is restored and the query is in sync with the backend again.
  • Multiple offline mutations now properly reflected in retrieved documents. Previously, only the last mutation would be visible.
  • Fixed a crash in closeWithFinaleState: that could be triggered by signing out when the app didn't have a network connection.
