5.2.5

5.2.4

Release date: September 29, 2021

5.2.2

Release date: August 9, 2021

5.2.1

Release date: July 28, 2021

This is a re-release of Native Template 5.2.0.

5.2.0

Release date: July 26, 2021

Improvements

• We made an improvement to the capability configurations. We added an implementation for the appCenterOTA capability. This removes the previous need to have Codepush bundled with every application even when over-the-air support is not enabled via the Native Mobile App Builder.
• We implemented support for Android 11 devices.
• We bumped react-native-codepush dependency to 6.4.1 due to security concerns on the previous version.

Breaking Change

• We bumped the react-native-image internal dependency to version 4.0.3 and introduced the react-native-permissions dependency. Developers would need to update their NativeMobileResources module from the App Store to the latest version to avoid unexpected behaviors. Due to this change, developers previously relying on over-the-air updates for their apps would have to release new applications to the app store.
