We’ve just released version 5.7.3 of the Courier iOS SDK — a major update for teams using Courier Inbox to power in-app notifications on iOS.
This release improves performance, reliability, and gives you more flexibility to build the experience you want.
Stronger socket connection handling
Real-time delivery is now more reliable when switching between foreground and background — ideal for mobile apps with dynamic in-app messaging.
New threading model with CourierActor
All Courier.shared
functionality now runs on a dedicated thread called CourierActor
. This keeps SDK work off the main thread and improves performance across the board.
Fully rebuilt inbox datastore
We’ve rebuilt how messages and events are stored and managed — all now handled exclusively within the CourierActor
. This ensures greater reliability and data accuracy.
Simplified listener events
Listening for inbox updates is easier than ever. The new onMessageEvent
callback lets you respond to message-level events — giving you the tools to build custom UIs without added complexity.
More tests, more confidence
We added new unit and integration tests to back these updates and support future releases.
Better Observability and Faster Debugging with the New Logs Visualization
Debugging notifications used to mean hunting through logs to find patterns. The new logs histogram in Courier gives you an instant view of message trends, making it easy to spot spikes, failures, and diagnose issues faster.
