Release notes

Release history for Bugsee iOS SDK 7.x. For the current stable line, see the 6.x release notes. See the migration guide when planning your upgrade from 6.x.

7.0.0-beta2 (September 18 2026)

Requirements

• The minimum deployment target moves from iOS 13 to iOS 15, and from tvOS 13 to tvOS 15. Xcode 27 no longer builds for anything older. visionOS 1 is unchanged.
• Swift Package Manager is the only distribution channel for 7.x. CocoaPods and Carthage are retired. A manual Bugsee.xcframework.zip download remains available.

Breaking changes

• Rectangles added with addSecureRectangle: now hide touches as well as pixels, the same way secure views already did.
• The React Native log hook (BugseeReactNativeLogger and BugseeLogger.reactNativeLogger) is removed from the core framework. The React Native 7.x SDK installs its own hook, so no app code is needed.

New features

• Feat: The BugseeFeedback package is published for the beta. Add https://github.com/bugsee/feedback-spm at 7.0.0-beta2; it depends on the matching core version, iOS 15 or later.
• Feat: getHostLaunchOptions returns the launch options your app supplied, as the SDK accepted them. Together with getLaunchOptions this matches Android.
• Feat: Lifecycle events. The delegate now receives RelaunchedAfterCrash, BeforeReportAssembled, AfterReportAssembled, ReportAssemblyFailed, BeforeReportUploaded, AfterReportUploaded, ReportUploadFailedWithFutureRetry and ReportUploadFailed. None of them were emitted in beta1.
• Feat: Wrapper SDK support for React Native, Flutter and Unity: the wrapper can contribute its own view hierarchy and secure rectangles, receive lifecycle events, and adjust a report before it is assembled. Apps using the iOS SDK directly see no change.

Fixes

• Fix: With BugseeOptionCaptureBreadcrumbs enabled, a stop or relaunch that landed while capture was still starting could deadlock the main thread, and the started: callback was never called.
• Fix: Crash reports whose instruction window could not be captured now still carry the crashing address and the CPU architecture.
• Fix: setWrapper: now populates the wrapper information attached to each session. Previously only the wrapper_info launch option did.
• Fix (Feedback): stopping the SDK now stops the chat's polling and outgoing requests, a stop during an in-flight send no longer delivers the same message twice, and the SwiftUI chat can dismiss the keyboard.

7.0.0-beta1 (September 15 2026)

First beta of the 7.x line. See the migration guide for the full list of API changes and the order to apply them in.

Requirements

• The minimum deployment target moves from iOS 12 to iOS 13.
• tvOS 13 and visionOS 1 are now supported.

Breaking changes

• Every option constant is renamed into the BugseeOption* family, grouped by area: BugseeOptionDetect*, BugseeOptionCapture*, BugseeOptionReporting*, BugseeOptionConfig*, BugseeOptionPerformance*. Launch options passed as hard-coded strings rather than constants are no longer recognized and fall back to the defaults.
• Feedback is no longer part of the core framework. It ships as a separate Swift package, BugseeFeedback, reached through BugseeFeedback.shared. showFeedbackController, setDefaultFeedbackGreeting: and the bugsee:didReceiveNewFeedback: delegate method are removed.
• pause and resume are removed.
• Renamed: showReportController* to showReportDialog*, setView:asHidden: to addSecureView: / removeSecureView:, addSecureRect: and friends to addSecureRectangle:, registerEvent: to event:, traceKey:withValue: to trace:value:, registerNetworkEvent: to addNetworkEvent:, setEmail: to setUserIdentifier:, appearance to getAppearance, activeSpan to getActiveSpan, and testExceptionCrash / testSignalCrash to testCrash.
• Removed with no replacement: getDeviceId, accessToken, isViewHidden:, hideKeyboard:, logAssert:withLocation:, the setDefault*Priority: setters (use the matching launch options) and the includeVideo: overloads of uploadWithSummary: and logError:.

New features

• Feat: Breadcrumbs. The SDK collects them automatically once BugseeOptionCaptureBreadcrumbs is enabled, and Bugsee.addBreadcrumb records your own. setBreadcrumbFilter: redacts or drops them.
• Feat: Blackout. startBlackout / endBlackout suppress everything that describes the screen — video, the report screenshot, touches and the view hierarchy — while logs, network events and traces keep being captured.
• Feat: Notification relay. Bugsee.notify sends a message straight to your messaging integrations without creating an issue and without attaching video, logs or events.
• Feat: New issue detection — hangs, HTTP errors, main-thread misuse, anomalies and frustration, each behind its own BugseeOptionDetect* option.
• Feat: User identity. setUserIdentifier: / getUserIdentifier / clearUserIdentifier record an arbitrary identifier in place of 6.x's email-only API, and getAllAttributes returns every attribute currently set.
• Feat: setLogEventFilter: filters console logs with a block, alongside the existing delegate hook.
• Feat: SDK status. A status property and the bugseeDidChangeStatus: delegate method report the Launching and Stopping steps that no lifecycle event covers.
• Feat: New capture options — video quality and privacy blur, screenshot scale, network interception installed during launch, camera preview and AVSampleBufferDisplayLayer.
• Feat: relaunch restarts with the current app token and default options.
• Feat: An extension registry (registerExt: / ext:) for optional modules. Feedback is the first to use it.
