8.44.1

Fixes

• Fix FirstDrawDoneListener leaking an OnGlobalLayoutListener per registration (#5567)

Features

• Add experimental SentrySQLiteDriver to sentry-android-sqlite for instrumenting androidx.sqlite.SQLiteDriver (#5563)
  • To use it, pass SQLiteDriver to SentrySQLiteDriver.create(...)
  • Requires androidx.sqlite:sqlite (2.5.0+) on runtime classpath (typically provided by Room or SQLDelight)

Dependencies

• Bump Native SDK from v0.15.0 to v0.15.1 (#5570)
  • changelog
  • diff

8.44.0

Features

• Add enableStandaloneAppStartTracing option to send app start as a standalone transaction instead of attaching it as a child span of the first activity transaction (#5342)
  • Disabled by default; opt in via options.isEnableStandaloneAppStartTracing = true or manifest meta-data io.sentry.standalone-app-start-tracing.enable
  • Emits a transaction named App Start with op app.start, carrying the existing app start measurements and phase spans (process.load, contentprovider.load, application.load, activity lifecycle spans) as direct children of the root
  • The standalone transaction shares the same traceId as the first ui.load activity transaction so they remain linked in the trace view
  • Also covers non-activity starts (broadcast receivers, services, content providers)

Improvements

• Reduce boxing to improve performance (#5523, #5527, #5551)
• Replace Date with a unix timestamp in SentryNanotimeDate to improve performance (#5550)
  • SentryNanotimeDate is now marked @ApiStatus.Internal. A new (long unixDateMillis, long nanos) constructor was added, where unixDateMillis is milliseconds since the epoch. The existing (Date, long) constructor is retained but deprecated.

8.43.0

Features

  SentryAndroid.init(context) { options ->
    options.sessionReplay.frameObserver =
      SentryReplayOptions.ReplayFrameObserver { hint, frameTimestamp, screenName ->
        val bitmap = hint.getAs(TypeCheckHint.REPLAY_FRAME_BITMAP, Bitmap::class.java)
        if (bitmap != null) {
          try {
            // Process the masked replay frame
            myAnalyzer.processFrame(bitmap, frameTimestamp, screenName)
          } finally {
            bitmap.recycle()
          }
        }
      }
  }

• Parse ART memory and garbage collector info from ANR tombstones into ART context (#5428)

8.42.0

Features

8.41.0

Features

• Session Replay: experimental support for capturing SurfaceView content (e.g. Unity, video players, maps) (#5333)
  • To enable, set options.sessionReplay.isCaptureSurfaceViews = true
  • Or via manifest: <meta-data android:name="io.sentry.session-replay.capture-surface-views" android:value="true" />
  • Warning: masking granularity is at the SurfaceView level only — the SDK cannot mask individual elements rendered inside the SurfaceView (e.g. native Unity UI, map labels, video frames). Only enable for SurfaceViews whose content is safe to record.
• Add Sentry.feedback() API for show() and capture() (#5349)
  • Sentry.showUserFeedbackDialog() is deprecated in favor of Sentry.feedback().show()
  • Sentry.captureFeedback() is deprecated in favor of Sentry.feedback().capture()
  • Sentry.captureUserFeedback() and UserFeedback are deprecated in favor of Sentry.feedback().capture() with the new Feedback type
  • SentryUserFeedbackDialog is deprecated in favor of SentryUserFeedbackForm
  • All deprecated APIs will be removed in the next major version
• Deprecate SentryUserFeedbackButton (View-based and Compose-based) (#5350)
  • It will be removed in the next major version
• Add per-form shake-to-show support for SentryUserFeedbackForm (#5353)
  • Useful for enabling shake-to-report on specific screens instead of globally

  SentryUserFeedbackForm.Builder(activity)
    .configurator { it.isUseShakeGesture = true }
    .create()

• Add support for Kafka (#5249)
  • You will need to add the sentry-kafka dependency and opt-in via the new option.
    • Set options.setEnableQueueTracing(true) on Sentry.init
    • Or set sentry.enable-queue-tracing=true in application.properties
  • For Spring Boot Kafka is auto instrumented and no further configuration is needed.
    • also see https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/guides/spring-boot/integrations/kafka/
  • When using kafka-clients directly
    • you need to wrap your KafkaProducer via SentryKafkaProducer.wrap(kafkaProducer) to get queue.publish spans
    • and you may use our SentryKafkaConsumerTracing.withTracing helper to instrument the consumer side manually.
    • also see https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/integrations/kafka/
