Release Notes - v5.0.1

New

  • None

Enhancements

  • Updated the message options design for improved user experience.
  • Implemented support to fetch the localization string file for better language customization.
  • Changed ViewModel observer to use LifecycleOwner instead of AppCompatActivity, making the component compatible with all activity types, not just AppCompatActivity. This improves flexibility and lifecycle management while reducing potential memory leaks.
  • Made the methods setEmptyStateVisibility and setErrorStateVisibility public in the following components:
    • CometChatUsers
    • CometChatConversations
    • CometChatGroups
    • CometChatGroupMembers
    • CometChatCallLogs
  • Added a new property setSeparatorVisibility to CometChatGroupMembers, allowing customization of separator visibility.

Fixes

  • Blocked User Status: Resolved an issue where a blocked user still appeared as "online" to the person who blocked them in CometChat Builder.
  • Caller UID Display: Fixed a bug where the UID of both users was shown when a blocked user attempted to initiate a call.
  • Search Key Display: Corrected the keyboard behavior where the keyboard showed "Enter" instead of "Search".
  • Whiteboard Display: Fixed an issue where the collaborative whiteboard was not displaying properly.
  • Call Icon Loading Issue: Resolved an issue where the call icon kept loading in the Calls tab even after the call ended.
  • Blocked User Calling Display Issue: Fixed a bug where calling a blocked user displayed their UID instead of properly handling the blocked status.
  • Android Sample App (Kotlin) UI Fixes:
    • Message Header Overlap: Fixed an issue causing the message header and status bar to overlap.
    • Bottom Navigation UI: Corrected UI misalignment in the bottom navigation of the app.
  • Message Deletion Notifications: Fixed a bug where message deletions were not properly reflected in notifications when using CometChat Builder.
  • Incorrect "Reply" Label: Resolved an issue where a "Reply" label was shown even when there were no replies.
  • Blocked Call Issue: Fixed an issue preventing users from initiating a call after being blocked during an ongoing call.
  • Banned Members Search Box: Corrected a keyboard issue where the "Tick" key was displayed instead of the "Search" key when searching for banned members.
  • Group Creation Sheet Padding: Fixed a misalignment issue with bottom padding in the group creation sheet.
  • Motion Gesture Visibility: Resolved an issue where motion gestures unexpectedly appeared on the messaging screen in CometChat Builder.
