This release fixes a problem with fetching the Android Advertising ID (IDFA) that delayed the createTracker call to take 10 seconds in case it was run on a background thread. The tracker now doesn’t retrieve any platform context properties during the createTracker call (they are fetched on background threads as events are processed), making it non-blocking to initialize the tracker.
Bug fixes
- Fix createTracker call hanging for 10 seconds if run on a background thread (#620)
