Android Native Libraries Released - December 16, 2021

  • Android Full Library v1.13.1

  • Android Aggregator Library v1.13.1

  • Android LifeScan OneTouch Library v1.13.1

Android Native Changes

  • General

    • Support for Android 5 (Lollipop) - 7.x (Nougat) will end in mid-Q1 2022 - an exact date is to be announced. Android 8 and up will continue to be supported by our hard-working implementation and support teams.

    • Other bug fixes and improvements as indicated in the README.md

  • Samsung Health

    • Updated historical fetch to allow a custom lookback period to control the amount of data that historical fetch retrieves. The default lookback is 180 days, the same as previous SDK versions.

      • Customer developers can now optionally set a different lookback window that is as short as last 1 day and as long as last 180 days.

      • This SDK version supports the same data types for historical fetch as previous SDK versions.

  • LifeScan OneTouch

    • OneTouch framework has been tested and confirmed working with MCK v4.3

    • The framework has been streamlined to offer faster implementation, better reliability, and improved supportability.

      • Developers will now use the MCK functions directly to scan, pair, and read OneTouch meters.

      • The Validic framework provides a convenience function to transform received OneTouch records into the Validic Mobile data format for display to the end user and submission to the Validic server.

Known issue: The A&D Bluetooth blood pressure cuff may fail to read in the foreground and passively. This issue appears to be related to Android 12 phones. The Validic mobile team is investigating further to determine the best resolution.
