# Beta Release Notes

## 1.11

<details>

<summary>1.11.1</summary>

2026-08-25

### Improvements

* Load callbacks for native, hybrid native and banner-provider ads are now always delivered on the main thread.
* Improved stability and reliability of fullscreen ads.
* Improved video quality selection for rewarded video ads.
* Improved reliability of rewarded video tracking.
* AdMob mediation adapter: native ads without an icon or main image now load correctly.

</details>

<details>

<summary>1.11.0</summary>

### New Features

* Added support for passing the **LiveRamp** envelope with ad requests.
  * New `liveRampEnvelope: String?` field in `RTBUserTargeting`; when set, the SDK sends it with every ad request.

### Changes

* The AdMob and AppLovin mediation adapters now bundle their own consumer ProGuard rules, so the adapter classes survive minification without relying on keep rules shipped by the Google or AppLovin SDKs. No publisher action is required.

### Improvements

* Improved reliability of fullscreen and rewarded video ad reloading.
* Improved internal handling of DSP signal collection.
* Improved robustness of VAST and MRAID creative parsing.
* Improved end-card loading for video ads.

</details>

## 1.10

<details>

<summary>1.10.2</summary>

2026-06-19

* Re-published last beta on new Maven repository. Please see note below.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This release is on new Maven repository. Please remove old repository declaration

```groovy
maven {
    url 'https://android-sdk-rtb.gravite.net/maven'
}
```

and replace it with

```groovy
maven {
    url 'https://gravite-sdk-releases.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/rtbsdk/android/maven'
    content { includeGroupByRegex "com\\.rtb\\..*" }
}
```

{% endhint %}

</details>

<details>

<summary>1.10.1</summary>

2026-06-08

#### New Features

* Added support for the **Additional Consent** string (handling consent for non-TCF partners).
  * The SDK now reads `IABTCF_AddtlConsent` from `SharedPreferences` and sends it with every ad request.

#### Improvements

* Reworked location handling for more accurate and privacy-conscious geo data.
  * Fixed reading of consent string before attempting to read location data.
  * Ad requests now include the **country** (ISO-3166-1 alpha-3) and **city** for the current fix, in addition to latitude/longitude.
  * Stale location fixes (older than 10 minutes) are discarded, so only fresh location data is used.

</details>

<details>

<summary>1.10.0</summary>

2026-05-11

### New Features

* Added support for win/loss notifications in host-side (in-app) auctions.
  * New optional `isAuction: Boolean` flag on request configurations — when `true`, the SDK keeps the bid's loss-notice URL (`lurl`) so the integrator can fire it manually.
  * New `didLoseAuction(clearingPrice: Float)` method provided for all formats, to be called if RTBSDK creative loses in-app auction

### Changes

* Ad requests are now sent as `POST` with a JSON body.
* DSP adapter signals widened from `Map<String, String>` to `Map<String, Any>` so adapters can contribute typed values (e.g. integers) that survive into the JSON payload.
  * **Breaking change for DSP adapter implementations -** update the `RTBDSPDelegate.didCollectSignals` signature accordingly.

### Fixes

* Deep-link clicks (\`market://\`, custom app schemes, etc.) now resolve correctly.
