Critical UpdateThe minimum supported Android API level has been raised from 21 (Android 5.0) to 23 (Android 6.0). Apps targeting API levels below 23 can no longer integrate this SDK version.
What's New

Supports image, GIF, and video with expand, collapse, drag-to-reposition (9-point snap grid), and configurable controls. Video playback requires AndroidX Media3.
- In-App Media Support: Adds GIF and video support across all in-app notification templates for richer in-app experiences.
Enhancements
- App Inbox Media Fallback: Adds a fallback media view for App Inbox when the backend does not provide a media orientation, rendering images, GIFs, video posters, and audio thumbnails at their natural aspect ratio.
- Network Monitoring: Replaces deprecated network APIs with a modern
NetworkMonitorfor more accurate connectivity detection, including captive portal support. - ExoPlayer Deprecated: Deprecates ExoPlayer (
