Release notes

Applies to all products.

Fixed problems with capturing on some devices

Basic Setup

General Requirements

The requirements for the SDK are:

Android 4.1 (API level 16) or higher
ARMv7 processor with Neon, ARM64-v8a
Internet connection

Permissions

Required permissions are linked automatically by the SDK.

The following permissions are optional:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE"/>
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" android:required="false"/>

Note: On devices running Android Marshmallow (6.0) you need to acquire android.permissions.CAMERA dynamically before initializing the SDK.

Use getRequiredPermissions to get a list of all required permissions.

public static String[] getRequiredPermissions();

Proguard

If you are using Proguard, add the following lines in its configuration.

-keep class com.jumio.** { *; }
-keep class jumio.** { *; }

Integration

Use the SDK in your application by including the Maven repository with the following build.gradle configuration in Android Studio:

repositories {
	maven {
		url 'http://mobile-sdk.jumio.com'
	}
}

Check the Android Studio sample projects to learn the most common use.

Architecture

You can filter which architecture to use by specifying the abiFilters.

Note: The abiFilters command in the ndk closure affects the Google Play Store filtering.

defaultConfig {
	ndk {
		abiFilters "armeabi","armeabi-v7a","arm64-v8a","mips","mips64","x86","x86_64"
	}
}

The apk can be splitted based on the architecture if multiple apks should be uploaded to the Google Play Store. Google Play Store manages to deliver the appropriate apk for the device.

splits {
	abi {
		enable true
		reset()
		include "armeabi","armeabi-v7a","arm64-v8a","mips","mips64","x86","x86_64"
		universalApk false
	}
}

Note: You get an UnsatisfiedLinkError, if the app and the CPU architecture do not match.

Configuration

Localizing labels

Our SDK supports the default Android localization features for different languages and cultures. All label texts and button titles in the SDK can be changed and localized by adding the required Strings you want to change in a strings.xml file in a values directory for the language and culture preference that you want to support. You can check out strings that are modifiable at ../res/values/strings.xml within our Sample application.

With accessibility support, visually impaired users can now enable TalkBack or change the font size on their device. The accessibility-strings that are used by TalkBack contain accessibility_ in their key and can be also modified in the strings.xml.
