0.12.0

⚠️ Important: Android – Breaking Change

Starting from this version, the SDK no longer manages permissions required for video calling functionality.

If your app uses calling functionality, you must manually declare the necessary permissions in your app’s AndroidManifest.xml file.

Note: Ensure you're modifying the main AndroidManifest.xml file at the application level, not a test or variant manifest.

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
    <!-- Permissions required for QuickBlox video calling functionality -->
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CAMERA" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MICROPHONE" />
    <!-- other manifest entries -->
</manifest>
