## November 09, 2026 - The latest update to the `play-services-identity-credentials` library (v16.0.0-alpha13) includes the following change: - Added `IdentityCredentialClient.getAgeRange(GetAgeRangeRequest)` (along with `GetAgeRangeRequest` and `PendingGetAgeRangeHandle`) to request the user's age range. #### Artifacts released on maven.google.com - com.google.android.gms:play-services-identity-credentials:16.0.0-alpha13 ## October 29, 2026 - The latest update to the `play-services-media-effect-enhancement` library (v16.0.0-beta10) includes the following changes: - Add Pixel 11 series to the allowlist. #### Artifacts released on maven.google.com - com.google.android.gms:play-services-media-effect-enhancement:16.0.0-beta10 ## October 28, 2026 - The latest update to the `play-services-oss-licenses` library (v17.5.3) includes the following changes: - Fixed a `Resources$NotFoundException` crash in `OssLicensesMenuActivity` and `OssLicensesActivity` when resource shrinking is enabled in release builds (such as with AGP 9). (GitHub [#460](https://github.com/google/play-services-plugins/issues/460)) - Added adaptive two-pane list-detail layout support for large screens and split-screen mode in `v2.OssLicensesMenuActivity`. (GitHub [#450](https://github.com/google/play-services-plugins/issues/450)) - Replaced platform ripple effects on list rows with Compose state layers in `v2.OssLicensesMenuActivity`. (GitHub [#446](https://github.com/google/play-services-plugins/issues/446)) - Removed the dependency on the deprecated `androidx.compose.material:material-icons-core` artifact by inlining the back navigation icon vector. - Initial release of the Google Play services LiteRT SDK (`play-services-litert` v17.0.0). It replaces `play-services-tflite-java` and `play-services-tflite-gpu` as the way to use LiteRT (TensorFlow Lite) in Google Play services, and updates the LiteRT runtime in Google Play services from LiteRT 2.1.2 to **LiteRT 2.3.2** . For more information, refer to the [LiteRT in Google Play services documentation](https://developers.google.com/edge/litert/android/play_services.md.txt). New functionality included in this release: - The LiteRT [CompiledModel API](https://developers.google.com/edge/litert/android/compiled_model_java.md.txt) (Kotlin, Java and C++). Call `LiteRt.initialize(context)` to initialize the Java/Kotlin API, or `LiteRt.initializeNative(context)` to initialize the [C++ API](https://developers.google.com/edge/litert/android/compiled_model_cpp.md.txt). - [GPU acceleration](https://developers.google.com/edge/litert/android/compiled_model_java.md.txt#gpu) with the CompiledModel API. The GPU accelerator is downloaded on demand on supported devices, with CPU fallback if configured. The Interpreter API (Java, C and C++) is still available, through `TfLite.initialize(context)` and `TfLiteNative.initialize(context)`, so existing apps can switch the dependency first and migrate to the CompiledModel API at their own pace. The SDK contains all LiteRT 2.3.2 APIs, but the following APIs currently fail with `kLiteRtStatusErrorUnsupported`. Support for them will be added in a future release. The affected APIs are: - `Environment.getAvailableAccelerators()` (Kotlin and Java), `litert::Environment::GetAvailableAccelerators()` (C++) and its callers: `ModelSelector.selectModel()` and `ModelSelector.selectModelFuture()` - `litert::CompiledModel::IsNonCpuFullyAccelerated()` CompiledModel APIs for custom ops (`litert::CustomOpKernel` and related APIs) are not supported with the Play services runtime. Support for custom ops will be added in a future Play services LiteRT SDK release. This release includes the following **breaking changes** compared to `play-services-tflite-java` v16.5.0: - `minSdkVersion` is now 24. - The delegate APIs are removed from the Interpreter API. Use the CompiledModel API for hardware acceleration. The removed APIs are: - Java: - `org.tensorflow.lite.Delegate` - `org.tensorflow.lite.DelegateFactory` - `org.tensorflow.lite.nnapi.NnApiDelegate` - `org.tensorflow.lite.acceleration.ValidatedAccelerationConfig` - `InterpreterApi.Options.addDelegate()` and `getDelegates()` - `InterpreterApi.Options.addDelegateFactory()` and `getDelegateFactories()` - `InterpreterApi.Options.setUseNNAPI()` and `getUseNNAPI()` - `InterpreterApi.Options.setAccelerationConfig()` and `getAccelerationConfig()` - C: - `TfLiteInterpreterOptionsAddDelegate()` - C++: - `tflite::InterpreterBuilder::AddDelegate()` - `play-services-tflite-gpu` and `play-services-tflite-acceleration-service` can't be used together with `play-services-litert`, because they depend on the removed delegate APIs. Instead, use the CompiledModel API for GPU acceleration. - `play-services-tflite-support` can't be used together with `play-services-litert`, because it depends on `play-services-tflite-java`. Support for the TensorFlow Lite Support Library in `play-services-litert` is coming soon, including support for the LiteRT 2.0 Support Library. - The C++ SDKs are now built from the Prefab packages of the library. The `tflite-java-extract-cpp-sdk.gradle` script and the `Findtflite_cc_api.cmake` module from the previous C++ setup instructions are no longer needed, and no longer work. To migrate, please follow the instructions in [Migrate to the C++ SDK](https://developers.google.com/edge/litert/android/native.md.txt#migrate-cpp-sdk). The LiteRT runtime in Google Play services has been updated from LiteRT 2.1.2 to LiteRT 2.3.2. For the full list of changes, see the [LiteRT 2.3.0 release notes](https://developers.google.com/edge/litert/releases/litert_oct.md.txt#litert_release_notes_version_230). The notable changes are: - Operators: - XNNPACK support for fp16 `DEPTHWISE_CONV_2D`, `CONV_2D`, `FULLY_CONNECTED` and `BATCH_MATMUL`. - Built-in kernels support high dimensional tensors. - New F8E4M3FN and F8E5M2 tensor element types. - Security and stability: - Integer overflow checks in convolution, reshape and pad-like CPU kernels. - Stricter input validation for `CONV_3D_TRANSPOSE`, `RESIZE_BILINEAR` and `RESIZE_NEAREST_NEIGHBOR`. - Fixed `TOPK_V2` ordering when the input contains NaN. #### Artifacts released on maven.google.com - com.google.android.gms:play-services-oss-licenses:17.5.3 - com.google.android.gms:play-services-litert:17.0.0 - com.google.android.gms:play-services-litert-compatibility:17.0.0 - com.google.android.gms:play-services-tflite-impl:16.6.0 ## October 26, 2026 - The latest update to the `play-services-media-effect-studiosound` library (v16.0.0-beta03) includes the following changes: - Added `StudioSoundClient.createSession(StudioSoundOptions, Executor, StudioSoundSessionCallback)`, which delivers `StudioSoundSessionCallback` on the executor you provide. Sessions no longer depend on the main thread. - **Behavior change:** `createSession(StudioSoundOptions, StudioSoundSessionCallback)` now calls `StudioSoundSessionCallback` on a binder thread instead of the main thread. - `onSessionDestroyed()` is now delivered after `release()`. - Result buffers stay readable for the whole `onProcessed()` call, even if the session is released at the same time. If the session is released before results are delivered, `onCancelled()` is called instead. - When `onProcessed()` is called, the next input buffer is ready, so `dequeueInputBuffer()` no longer needs to be retried. - Fixed `createSession()` failing with `MAX_SESSIONS_REACHED` after Google Play services restarted during a session. - Added support for Pixel 11 devices and more vivo and TCL devices. - Updates the Google Play services ML Kit Text Recognition v2 libraries.

Cross-app sharing is opt-in and requires explicit developer configuration when using AppSearch APIs. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** The APIs from the `play-services-appsearch` library should not be used directly. Instead, access these features using the [AppSearch library in Jetpack](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/appsearch). #### Artifacts released on maven.google.com - com.google.android.gms:play-services-appsearch:16.0.0 ## May 30, 2024 - The latest update to Firebase includes changes to: - Firebase Android BoM (Bill of Materials) - Firebase SDK for Google Analytics - Firebase App Distribution - Firebase Crashlytics - Firebase Data Connect - Firebase Dynamic Links - Firebase Performance Monitoring For more information, see the [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#2024-05-30). - The latest release of the [`google-services` Gradle plugin](https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/google-services-plugin-and-file) for Android (v4.4.2) is now available.

Added [`getCurrentPlayer`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/games/PlayersClient.md.txt#getCurrentPlayer(boolean)) which retrieves the latest data about the signed-in player. -

Currently, only the [`FidoAppIdExtension`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/FidoAppIdExtension.md.txt) is supported. Over time, more extensions may be supported depending on the use case. - Added Builder for [`AuthenticatorSelectionCriteria`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/AuthenticatorSelectionCriteria.md.txt). - Changed Builders for [`PublicKeyCredentialRequestOptions`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/PublicKeyCredentialRequestOptions.md.txt), [`BrowserPublicKeyCredentialRequestOptions`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/BrowserPublicKeyCredentialRequestOptions.md.txt). - Removed Builders for API response-level objects [`AuthenticatorAttestationResponse`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/AuthenticatorAttestationResponse.md.txt), [`AuthenticatorAssertionResponse`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/AuthenticatorAssertionResponse.md.txt), [`AuthenticatorErrorResponse`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/AuthenticatorErrorResponse.md.txt). - Added enumerations of RSA and EC2 algorithms from the COSE registry to employ in [`PublicKeyCredentialParameters`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/PublicKeyCredentialParameters.md.txt). - Added [`AttestationConveyancePreference`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/AttestationConveyancePreference.md.txt), which specifies the level of obfuscation of the attestation object returned in a registration ceremony. - Renamed and restructured the former TokenBindingIdValue to [`TokenBinding`](https://developers.google.com/android/guides/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/TokenBinding). - Augmented and/or updated other data structures to represent WebAuthn draft [WD11](https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/CR-webauthn-20180807/). For instance, the "user id" field in [`PublicKeyCredentialUserEntity`](https://developers.google.com/android/guides/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fido/fido2/api/common/PublicKeyCredentialUserEntity) has been updated to be a `byte[]` rather than a `String`.

For more information, see the [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180621). #### Artifacts released on maven.google.com - com.google.firebase:firebase-invites:16.0.1 - com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:17.0.2 ## June 14, 2018 #### Firebase - The latest update to Firebase includes API changes for Firebase Authentication, Firebase App Indexing, and Firebase Core. For more information, see the [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180614). ## May 23, 2018 #### Version Ranges Removed Starting with the 15.0.0 release of Google Play services and Firebase, inter-library dependencies were defined using [version ranges](https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Dependency_Version_Requirement_Specification) in the POMs. This affected the build reproducibility of projects using these libraries. As an example, Gradle's [dependency resolution](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/introduction_dependency_management.html#sec:dependency_resolution) will attempt to use the highest available concrete version in a repository, causing uplift of a dependency version without any changes to the project itself. The use of version ranges was a mistake and has been corrected; Google Play services and Firebase dependencies will no longer use version ranges. However, existing, published library POM files already contain ranges. Thus, all future library updates will need to start outside the dependency ranges of previously published libraries. Example: - If `play-services-bar` had a dependency onto `play-services-foo` with range `[15.0.0, 16.0.0)`, a new release of `play-services-foo` must begin with `16.0.0` to be outside this range. - Any future releases of `play-services-bar` will declare a ["soft" requirement](https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Dependency_Version_Requirement_Specification) onto a single version of `play-services-foo`. - Any future release of `play-services-foo` will follow SemVer. #### Firebase - The latest update to Firebase includes API changes for Cloud Firestore, Cloud Storage, Firebase Authentication, Firebase Realtime Database, and Machine Learning. For more information, see [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180523). - Firebase now requires the app gradle file to explicitly list `com.google.firebase:firebase-core` as a dependency for Firebase services to work as expected. ## May 8, 2018 #### Firebase - The latest update to Firebase includes additions to Firebase Performance Monitoring and the release of the ML Kit for Firebase beta. For more information, read the [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180508). ## May 2, 2018 #### Firebase - The latest update to Firebase includes additions to Firebase Analytics, Firebase Authentication, Firebase Cloud Messaging, Firebase Cloud Storage, Cloud Firestore, Firebase Crash Reporting, and Firebase Performance Monitoring along with independent version numbers. For more information, read the [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180502). #### Play Services updates - Google Play services libraries after 15.0.0 now have independent version numbers which follow [SemVer](https://semver.org/). This change will allow for more frequent, flexible updates by individual components. - The [`google-services` Gradle plugin](https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/google-services-plugin-and-file) has been updated to version 3.3.0 to support this change in versioning. If you do not use this plugin, a standalone plugin, `com.google.android.gms.strict-version-matcher-plugin` has been released with the same version support functionality. For more details, see [versioning guide](https://developers.google.com/android/guides/versioning.md.txt). ## April 12, 2018 - Version 15.0.0 **Known Issues with version 15.0.0** - If you are using the [Android Plugin for Gradle](https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin.html) version 2.2.0 or lower, you may encounter the following error: `Error: more than one library with package name 'com.google.android.gms'` To resolve the issue, update to a more recent version of the plugin. Highlights from the v 15.0.0 release: #### Play Services updates - A new version of the `com.google.gms.oss.licenses.plugin` Gradle plugin is now available. Please update as only this latest version works with Google Play services 15.0.0 and beyond. This is the last version of the plugin to support Android Studio 2.x. Starting with the next version, the plugin will support Android Studio 3.x only. - All references to `com.google.android.gms.R` classes have been replaced by component specific references; for example, `com.google.android.gms.ads.R`. If you use these classes directly in your code, you may need to update your code to be compatible. - Starting with 15.0.0, there will no longer be an updated offline Javadoc (the Google Play services artifact in Android Studio's SDK Manager). - Starting with 15.0.0, there will no longer be a `play-services` alias target to pull in all Google Play services components. This has been recommended against for some time. #### Ads - Added the [`UnifiedNativeAd`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/formats/UnifiedNativeAd) class, which can contain either an app install ad or a content ad. - Updated the Native Ads Advanced API to support `UnifiedNativeAd`: - Added the [`UnifiedNativeAdView`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/formats/UnifiedNativeAdView) and [`UnifiedNativeAdAssetNames`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/formats/UnifiedNativeAdAssetNames) classes. - Added the [`UnifiedNativeAd.OnUnifiedNativeAdLoadedListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/formats/UnifiedNativeAd.OnUnifiedNativeAdLoadedListener) interface. - Added the [`forUnifiedNativeAd()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/AdLoader.Builder#forUnifiedNativeAd(com.google.android.gms.ads.formats.UnifiedNativeAd.OnUnifiedNativeAdLoadedListener)) method to the [`AdLoader.Builder`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/AdLoader.Builder) class. - Made several updates to the mediation API, making it possible for adapters and custom events to return instances of `UnifiedNativeAd`. #### Auth - Added the [`KEY_EXTRA_ACCOUNT_TYPE`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/auth/api/accounttransfer/AccountTransfer.md.txt#KEY_EXTRA_ACCOUNT_TYPE) constant to the [`AccountTransfer`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/auth/api/accounttransfer/AccountTransfer.md.txt) class, which lets packages know which account type should be addressed. #### Cast - Deprecated the [`AppVisibilityListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/AppVisibilityListener.md.txt) class. - Deprecated [`RemoteMediaClient.Listener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/media/RemoteMediaClient.Listener.md.txt) class. Use the new [`RemoteMediaClient.Callback`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/media/RemoteMediaClient.Callback.md.txt) class instead. - Fixed a crash in [`TracksChooserDialogFragment`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/media/TracksChooserDialogFragment.md.txt) and made several changes to its constructor and creator. - Introduced the [`MediaQueue`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/media/MediaQueue.md.txt) API as a replacement for existing media queue mechanism. Use the new [`MediaQueueRecyclerViewAdapter`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/media/MediaQueueRecyclerViewAdapter.md.txt) and [`MediaQueueArrayAdapter`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/media/MediaQueueArrayAdapter.md.txt) classes to access `MediaQueue` in recycler views and list views, respectively. - Tapping cast remote control notifications now take users to the Google Home app or the corresponding Cast app, depending on if the Cast app supports joining the session automatically. - Ads Support Update: - Cast Sender API now supports loading `VAST` ads. - Added "Skip Ad" button and countdown text UI elements. - Added a version of [`CastContext.getSharedInstance()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/CastContext.md.txt#getSharedInstance()) that doesn't require `Context` as parameter. - Fixed an `IllegalStateException` crash in CAF. - Added [`DEVICE_CONNECTION_SUSPENDED`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/CastStatusCodes.md.txt#DEVICE_CONNECTION_SUSPENDED) to [`CastStatusCodes`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/CastStatusCodes.md.txt) for `PendingResult`. - For more details, see [`Google Cast release notes`](https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/release-notes.md.txt). #### Firebase - The latest update to Firebase includes additions to Firebase Authentication and Firebase Cloud Storage. For more information, see [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180412). #### Fitness - Deprecated the [`fromLocationRequest()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fitness/request/SensorRequest.md.txt#fromLocationRequest(com.google.android.gms.fitness.data.DataSource,%20com.google.android.gms.location.LocationRequest)) method of the [`SensorRequest`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fitness/request/SensorRequest.md.txt) class. Use [SensorRequest.Builder](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fitness/request/SensorRequest.Builder.md.txt) to build SensorRequest instead. #### Google Cloud Messaging - Deprecated the [`GoogleCloudMessaging`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/gcm/GoogleCloudMessaging), [`GcmPubSub`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/gcm/GcmPubSub), [`GcmReceiver`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/gcm/GcmReceiver), [`GcmListenerService`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/gcm/GcmListenerService), [`InstanceID`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/iid/InstanceID.md.txt), and [`InstanceIDListenerService`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/iid/InstanceIDListenerService.md.txt) classes. Use [`FirebaseMessaging`](https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/android/com/google/firebase/messaging/FirebaseMessaging) instead. #### Games - Deprecated the [`getChurnProbability()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/games/stats/PlayerStats.md.txt#getChurnProbability()), PlayerStats.getHighSpenderProbability, [`getSpendProbability()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/games/stats/PlayerStats.md.txt#getSpendProbability()), and [`getTotalSpendNext28Days()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/games/stats/PlayerStats.md.txt#getTotalSpendNext28Days()) methods from the [`PlayerStats`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/games/stats/PlayerStats.md.txt) class. #### Instant Apps - Removed `InstantApps.API`. Use [`InstantApps.getInstantAppsClient()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/instantapps/InstantApps.md.txt#getInstantAppsClient(android.app.Activity)) instead. #### Nearby - Deprecated [`NearbyConnections`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/nearby/connection/Connections.md.txt)-related internal states. #### Wallet - Deprecated the [`Payments`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/wallet/Payments) class. Instead, use [`Wallet.getPaymentsClient()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/wallet/Wallet.md.txt#getPaymentsClient(android.app.Activity,%20com.google.android.gms.wallet.Wallet.WalletOptions)) to get an instance of the new [`PaymentsClient`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/wallet/PaymentsClient.md.txt) class. ## March 28, 2018 - Version 12.0.1 Issues fixed in 12.0.1: - Fixes issue that caused spurious Android lint errors claiming `GoogleSignIn` and `CredentialsClient` were internal-only. - Adds missing `minSdkVersion` in -license artifacts to prevent automatic inclusion of `READ_PHONE_STATE` and `READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` permissions. - Restores unique package names for runtime linked -license artifacts which affected some build systems' (e.g. Ionic Pro) compatibility issues. - Restores some fields names that were obfuscated in 12.0.1, namely the `value()` method of `@PropertyName` annotations in firebase-firestore and firebase-database. ## March 20, 2018 - Version 12.0.0 **Known Issues with version 12.0.0** - -license POM dependencies have no `minSdkVersion` / `targetSdkVersion` set, which means that the implied `targetSdkVersion` is 1. This adds `READ_PHONE_STATE` and `READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` permissions for apps using 12.0.0. - -license POM dependencies cause "more than one library with package name 'com.google.android.gms.license'" issues in Ionic Pro. - `@PropertyName` annotations for firebase-database and firebase-firestore have their `value()` method obfuscated. This means your app will not build if you use `@PropertyName`. - An annotation causes spurious lint errors claiming `GoogleSignIn` and `CredentialsClient` are internal-only. These can safely be ignored. We will provide an updated 12.0.1 release to address these issues soon. Highlights from the Google Play services 12.0.0 release: - **Ads** - Added the [`trackViews()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/mediation/NativeAdMapper#trackViews(android.view.View,%20java.util.Map%3Cjava.lang.String,%20android.view.View%3E,%20java.util.Map%3Cjava.lang.String,%20android.view.View%3E)) method to the [`NativeAdMapper`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/mediation/NativeAdMapper) class. The method replaces the now-deprecated [`trackView()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/mediation/NativeAdMapper#trackView(android.view.View)) method of the same class. - **Auth** - Deprecated the [`Auth.AuthCredentialsOptions`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/auth/api/Auth.AuthCredentialsOptions) class in favor of the new [`CredentialsOptions`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/auth/api/credentials/CredentialsOptions) class. - **Cast** - Improved Ads support: - Added the [`setAdBreakClips()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/MediaInfo.Builder.md.txt#setAdBreakClips(java.util.List%3Ccom.google.android.gms.cast.AdBreakClipInfo%3E)) and [`setAdBreaks()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/MediaInfo.Builder.md.txt#setAdBreaks(java.util.List%3Ccom.google.android.gms.cast.AdBreakInfo%3E)) methods to the [`MediaInfo.Builder`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/MediaInfo.Builder.md.txt) class to provide a way to send ad break and clip info in a media load request. - Updated the [`AdBreakInfo.Builder`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/AdBreakInfo.Builder.md.txt) class and added the [`AdBreakClipInfo`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/AdBreakClipInfo.Builder.md.txt) class to facilitate new break- and clip-sending methods. - Added support for new voice cast APIs: - Added the [`setCredentials()`]() and [`setCredentialsType()`]() methods to the [`MeadiaLoadOptions.Builder`]() class and the [`getCredentials()`]() and [`getCredentialsType()`]() methods to the [`MediaLoadOptions`]() class. The methods allow you to set and get application-specific credentials with load requests. - Added the [`getEntity()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/MediaInfo.md.txt#getEntity()) method to the [`MediaInfo`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/MediaInfo.md.txt) class. The entity represents a deep link for media loading from Google Assistant. - Fixed a bug where calling [`CastContext.getSharedInstance()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/cast/framework/CastContext.md.txt#getSharedInstance(android.content.Context)) on devices with out-of-date versions of Google Play services caused a crash. Outdated Google Play services versions still cause the method to fail, so clients should check for an appropriate version. - **Fido** - The Fast Identity Online 2.0 (Fido2) API is now available to early access partners. Since the API is still early-access, breaking changes can be made without warning. For the sake of your app's stability, don't rely on this API until it's more generally available. - **Firebase** - The latest update to Firebase includes additions to Firebase Authentication, Firebase Cloud Messaging, Firestore, and Firebase Functions. For more information, see [Firebase Android SDK Release Notes](https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#20180320). - **Instant Apps** - Added new a [`Launcher`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/instantapps/Launcher.md.txt) API, to check a supplied URL and launch an instant app if one is found. - **Location** - Added the [`ActivityTransition`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/ActivityTransition.md.txt) class to help apps differentiate between different physical activities users undertake, for example walking, running, or driving. - Added the [`BoundsMode`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/places/GeoDataClient.BoundsMode.md.txt) interface to allow the [`getAutocompletePredictions()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/places/GeoDataClient.md.txt#getAutocompletePredictions(java.lang.String,%20com.google.android.gms.maps.model.LatLngBounds,%20int,%20com.google.android.gms.location.places.AutocompleteFilter)) method to enable searches with bounds restrictions. - **Maps** - Added the [`StreetViewSource`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/model/StreetViewSource.md.txt) class, which lets you restrict Streetview searches to outdoor-only results. - For a full list of features, bug fixes, and other notes, see the [Maps Android API Release Notes](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/releases). - **Nearby** - Deprecated the [`GoogleApiClient`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/common/api/GoogleApiClient.md.txt)-based [`Messages`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/nearby/messages/Messages.md.txt) and [`Connections`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/nearby/connection/Connections.md.txt) interfaces.

When they aren't set, the Google Payment API doesn't return a chargeable token. Avoid setting these fields in flows where users are only attempting to change selections without making a purchase (e.g. within an app's Payment Settings). - Changed the [`resolveTask()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/wallet/AutoResolveHelper.md.txt#resolveTask(com.google.android.gms.tasks.Task%3CTResult%3E,%20android.app.Activity,%20int)) method to add a temporary Fragment to an activity. Ensure the Activity can execute fragment transactions without state loss before calling the method. Most developers should be unaffected by this change, as `resolveTask()` is usually called within a button click listener. **Known Issues with version 11.6.0** `GoogleApi` instances created with a `Context` in apps with targetSdkVersion 26 won't automatically prompt users to update Google Play services. Consider using [`GoogleApiAvailability.showErrorDialogFragment()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/common/GoogleApiAvailability.md.txt#showErrorDialogFragment(android.app.Activity,%20int,%20int)) under these conditions instead. ## October 3, 2017 - version 11.4.2 Highlights from the Google Play services 11.4.2. release: - **Cloud Firestore** - The initial public beta release of Cloud Firestore is now available.

In this release, Firebase APIs are now available in Google Play services, and include new products: Firebase Analytics, Firebase Storage, Firebase Remote Config, Firebase Crash Reporting, Firebase Dynamic Links, and Firebase Notifications. For a list of the libraries available for the different Firebase features, see [Firebase libraries](https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/setup#available-libraries). The following features are now part of Firebase in the Google Play Services 9.0 SDK: - App Invites (now Firebase Invites) is still available at `com.google.android.gms.appinvite`, but going forward you should use `com.google.firebase:firebase-invites`. - Firebase Cloud Messaging builds on and improves the Google Cloud Messaging API. You can keep using Google Cloud Messaging with `com.google.android.gms.gcm`, but we recommend [upgrading](https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/android/android-migrate-fcm) to `com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging`. To learn more about Firebase, see . - **Ads** - The Rewarded Video Publisher API now includes support for custom events. - Native express video now includes APIs that provide control of how videos are displayed, including specifying the initial mute state and callbacks when the video is complete. - Updated Custom Search Ads for mobile apps that let app developers monetize in-app search events with highly relevant ads based on their user's queries. With this update, the in-app monetization solution is equivalent to what is available on the desktop or the mobile web. App developers now have access to the full set of extensions, layouts, attribution options, callbacks and custom ad icons. - The MobileAds API now includes support for setting the preferred volume of video ads using [`setAppVolume()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/MobileAds#setAppVolume(float)), and also muting video ads using [`setAppMuted()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/MobileAds#setAppMuted(boolean)). - The MobileAds [`initialize(android.content.Context, java.lang.String)`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/MobileAds#initialize(android.content.Context,%20java.lang.String)) method is no longer deprecated. Instead, the `initialize(android.content.Context)` method is now deprecated. - The `MediationNativeListener` interface now includes a method, [`onAdImpression()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/ads/mediation/MediationNativeListener#onAdImpression(com.google.android.gms.ads.mediation.MediationNativeAdapter)), which mobile ad networks can call when they record an impression. - **Nearby** - Simplified the Nearby consent UI and permission model. - Any app with fine-grain location permission can scan for BLE Beacons without additional permission. - Opt-in dialogs are shown to users when the app calls the GoogleAPIClient [`connect()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/common/api/GoogleApiClient.md.txt#connect()) method. - **Games** - Client SDK updates to improve the Player Stat API with two new predictions: predicting player spend in the next 28 days, and predicting the probability of a player being a 95th percentile spender. - Client SDK updates to make the Video Recording API widely available. - **Google Cloud Messaging** - Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) is integrated with Firebase. Existing users of GCM can continue to use GCM without interruption, though we strongly recommend upgrading to the new and simplified Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) APIs, so that users can benefit from future releases of new features and enhancements. To learn more, see [Migrate a GCM Client App for Android to Firebase Cloud Messaging](https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/android/android-migrate-fcm). - **Mobile Vision** - A service required by Mobile Vision is now disabled due to an issue with that service. This will prevent users who have not already used face or barcode detection from using those features. We do not recommend adding new Mobile Vision features to your app until this issue is fixed. - For apps that already use Mobile Vision features, check [`FaceDetector.isOperational()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/vision/face/FaceDetector.md.txt#isOperational()) or [`BarcodeDetector.isOperational()`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/vision/barcode/BarcodeDetector.md.txt#isOperational()) to confirm detector readiness before using the face or barcode detector. - **Auth** GoogleAuthUtil has moved to the -auth API split in the Google Play services SDK. If your app uses `GoogleAuthUtil.getToken()` you may see an error similar to the following: `Error:(xx, xx) error: package com.google.android.gms.auth does not exist` `Error:(xx, xx) error: cannot find symbol variable GoogleAuthUtil` If you need to access the REST API on Android, include the -auth split in your build.gradle file: `compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:9.0.1'` Otherwise, we recommend [migrating](https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/migration-guide.md.txt) your app to the [Google Sign-In API](https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/sign-in) to incorporate the latest improvements in security and user experience into your app. To learn more, see our [guide to Google Sign In best practices](http://goo.gl/QZYeQr). **Known Issues with version 9.0.0** If your app uses AdMob and also uses ProGuard post-processing, your app won't be able to serve ads to devices without the Google Play services APK unless you adjust your ProGuard configuration or update your app to use the Google Play services version 9.0.1 SDK. To ensure that ads are served to these devices after your app is updated to use the Google Play Services 9.0.0 SDK, add the following [keep option](http://proguard.sourceforge.net/manual/usage.html#keepoptions) to your ProGuard configuration file: `-keep public @com.google.android.gms.common.util.DynamiteApi class * { *; }` > [!NOTE] > **Note:** Only apps that use the Google Play services 9.0.0 SDK need to include this keep option. You should remove this line from your `/proguard-project.txt` file when upgrading to the 9.0.1 version or later versions of the Google Play services SDK. ## December 2015 - version 8.4 Highlights from the Google Play services 8.4 release. - **Google Maps** - This release introduces a number of new event listeners: - [`OnInfoWindowLongClickListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/GoogleMap.OnInfoWindowLongClickListener.md.txt) triggers a callback to `onInfoWindowLongClick(Marker)` when the user long clicks on an info window. - [`OnInfoWindowCloseListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/GoogleMap.OnInfoWindowCloseListener.md.txt) triggers a callback to `onInfoWindowClose(Marker)` when an info window closes. For details, see the guide to [info window events](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/infowindows.md.txt#info_window_events). - [`OnPolylineClickListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/GoogleMap.OnPolylineClickListener.md.txt) triggers a callback to `onPolylineClick(Polyline)` when the user clicks on a polyline. See the guide to [polyline events](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/shapes.md.txt#polyline-events). - [`OnPolygonClickListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/GoogleMap.OnPolygonClickListener.md.txt) triggers a callback to `onPolygonClick(Polygon)` when the user clicks on a polygon. See the guide to [polygon events](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/shapes.md.txt#polygon-events). - [`OnGroundOverlayClickListener`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/maps/GoogleMap.OnGroundOverlayClickListener.md.txt) triggers a callback to `onGroundOverlayClick(GroundOverlay)` when the user clicks on a ground overlay. See the guide to [ground overlay events](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/groundoverlay.md.txt#overlay-events). - You can enable or disable the clickability of polylines, polygons and ground overlays by calling `setClickable(boolean)` on the relevant object. - Several bug fixes. Details available in the Google Maps release notes. - **Google Places** - This release introduces a new [autocomplete service](https://developers.google.com/places/android-sdk/autocomplete) that returns place predictions in response to user search queries. - [`PlaceAutocompleteFragment`](https://developers.google.com/places/android-sdk/autocomplete#add_an_autocomplete_widget) is a search dialog with built in autocomplete functionality. - [`GeoDataApi.getAutocompletePredictions()`](https://developers.google.com/places/android-sdk/autocomplete#get_place_predictions_programmatically) allows programmatic access to place predictions to allow creating a full custom search UI. - Autocomplete has also been added to the [Place Picker](https://developers.google.com/places/android-sdk/placepicker). - **Google Sign In** - When users revoke an app's access with **Google Settings** \> **Connected Apps** , Google Play services will start the [Revocation service](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/auth/api/signin/RevocationBoundService) to clean up cached sign-in state. - You can configure the `GoogleSignInOptions` object to prompt users to sign in with only accounts in your Google Apps domain by using the [setHostedDomain](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/auth/api/signin/GoogleSignInOptions.Builder.md.txt#setHostedDomain(java.lang.String)) builder method. - The `onUploadServerAuthCode` callback and related functions have been removed. To acquire an access token for your backend, use the `requestServerAuthCode` and `getServerAuthCode` methods. See [Enabling Server-Side Access](https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/offline-access) for details. - **Google Fit History** - The Google Fit History API now includes a new method, [`updateData`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/fitness/HistoryApi.md.txt#updateData(com.google.android.gms.common.api.GoogleApiClient,%20com.google.android.gms.fitness.request.DataUpdateRequest)), that makes it easier to update data stored in Google Fit. With `updateData`, you no longer need to delete existing data points that overlap with a new data point that you want to add to Google Fit. Conflicts are automatically resolved by deleting existing data points that overlap with the new data point. - **Nearby Messaging** - New support for [subscribing to BLE beacon messages in the background](https://developers.google.com/nearby/messages/android/get-beacon-messages#subscribe_in_the_background).

You may need to add `compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0'` to avoid compile errors. **Known Issues** - If you receive the error 'Found com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0, but version 8.1.0 is needed' when using the `google-services` Gradle plugin, please upgrade your `google-services` Gradle plugin to v1.5.0-beta2 or later. ## September 2015 - version 8.1 Highlights from the Google Play services 8.1 release. - Adds support for the Marshmallow Permissions model. - **Play Games Player Stats API** - [A new API](https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/stats) that lets you tailor player experiences to specific segments of players across the game lifecycle. Player segments are based on player progression, spend, and engagement. - **Google Maps Android API** - New support for [ambient mode for wearable apps](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/wear#ambient). Ambient mode is for *always on* apps, and is activated when the user is no longer actively using the app. - **App Invites** - You can now customize the email invitation sent from your app. - **Nearby Messages API** - Your app will receive callbacks when an active Nearby publish or subscribe expires. - **Google Places API** - Three new methods have been added to [`AutocompletePrediction`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/places/AutocompletePrediction.md.txt), giving you easy access to the primary and secondary parts of the place description as well as the full text of the description. These methods replace the `getDescription()` and `getMatchedSubstrings()`, which are now deprecated. Refer to the [Google Places API for Android release notes](https://developers.google.com/places/android-sdk/releases) for more details. - **Application Measurement** - This release adds the measurement package, which contains features for collecting anonymous statistics on application events such as when a user first opens your application. While this data is not collected unless correctly configured, you may permanently opt-out of reporting these statistics by adding the following resource to your application: 0 - `GoogleApiClient`, `PendingResult`, and `OptionalPendingResult` are now abstract classes instead of interfaces. The signature of `PendingResult.setResultCallback` has changed from `setResultCallback(ResultCallback callback)` to `setResultCallback(ResultCallback callback)`. An equivalent change has been made to `setResultCallback` that accepts a timeout parameter. If you were directly implementing these interfaces before, you'll need to extend the abstract classes instead. If you used these classes for testing purposes, we recommend using the provided utility class [`PendingResults`](https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/common/api/PendingResults.md.txt) which can provide a `Result` that is either canceled or immediately available. ## August 2015 - version 7.8 For a summary of the feature highlights in Google Play services 7.8, see the announcement [blog post](https://android-developers.blogspot.com/2015/08/google-play-services-78-lets-see-whats.html). - **Mobile Vision API** - This release introduces a new, real-time, on-device API for understanding objects in photos and video.
