If you proxy your events through the `apiHost` config option, you must forward the batched events to `https://api.segment.io/v1/b`. The `https://api.segment.io/v1/batch` endpoint is reserved for events arriving from server-side sending, and proxying to that endpoint for your mobile events may result in unexpected behavior.

## Timestamps in Swift
Due to efficiency updates made to Segment's Swift library, Segment now adds the `sentAt` timestamp to an event when the batch is complete and initially tried to the Segment API. This can impact the value of the `timestamp` field calculated by Segment if users are operating in an offline mode. More details on this change can be seen in Segment's [timestamp documentation](/docs/connections/spec/common/#sentat).
