• It is now possible to specify which ADX servers SDK should use by setting ADX domain. Check out documentation on how to do it here.

• WKWebView support. We have changed SDK to use WKWebView to render HTML banners. WKWebView is used by default on iOS 8+ and UIWebView is used on older iOS versions. If you prefer to use the old UIWebView even on newer iSO versions, you can do this by setting web view type parameter on AdformSDK class.

Don't forget to add new dependencies to your project if you are updating our SDK from older version or start using cocoapods.

• WebKit.framework

• Added Search Words support.

• Fixed AFADInterstitial interaction issues.

• It is now possible to define multiple key value pairs with the same key for all banners.

The new SDK version uses different method for setting key values to a banner. Therefore, if you were setting key values to banners using older sdk you need to update it. You can use two methods to do it:

1. Create an NSArray with AFKeyValue objects and set it to the banner.
2. Use "AFKeyValuesFromNSDictionary()" function to convert a NSDictionary with key values that you used to set to the banner, to NSArray with AFKeyValue objects and set it to the banner.

You can find an example here.

• With the rollout of iOS 10, the App Store’s privacy policy requires apps to provide a usage description when attempting to access privacy-sensitive data, such as a user’s calendar. To comply with the App Store privacy changes, we removed support for the mraid.createCalendarEvent() and mraid.storePicture() methods.
