General

New features

Updates
  • Convert com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation from a data class to a class.
Fixes
  • Fix memory leaks that previously occurred when driving a long route.
Deprecations

  • Deprecate the following:

    • Component1() of com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation class. Use targetCharge instead.
    • Component2() of com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation class. Use chargingTime instead.
    • Component3() of com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation class. Use chargingParkUuid instead.
    • Component4() of com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation class. Use connectorDetails instead.
    • Component5() of com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation class. Use chargingPower instead.
    • Copy() of com.tomtom.sdk.vehicle.ChargingInformation class. Use the constructor to create the copy.

Location

Breaking changes

  • Add constructor’s param to the following:

    • com.tomtom.sdk.location.android.AndroidLocationProvider that allows passing kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineDispatcher to receive location updates on a dedicated pool of threads.
    • com.tomtom.sdk.location.gms.GmsLocationProvider that allows passing kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineDispatcher to receive location updates on a dedicated pool of threads.

Map

Breaking changes

  • Remove the following com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualization APIs (use com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.poi.PoiVisualization APIs instead to visualize Search Results):

    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualization.clear().
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualization.displaySearchResults(List<SearchResult>).
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualization.removeSearchResult(List<SearchResult>).
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualization.replaceMap(TomTomMap).
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualization.
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualizationFactory.create(TomTomMap):SearchVisualization.
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.search.SearchVisualizationFactory.
New features
  • API to display EV search results with extended details.
Updates

  • The following are now available in Public Preview:

    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.route.domain.RouteUpdate.instructionsVisibility.
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.route.RouteOptions.instructionsVisible.
    • com.tomtom.sdk.map.display.visualization.navigation.RouteInstructionsStyle.
Fixes

Navigation

New features
  • Add traffic data adapter module that implements HorizonDataAdapter.
  • Pass traffic API into Navigation and Horizon engines so they can publish traffic events.
Updates
  • getVoices() and setVoice(voice: Voice) APIs of com.tomtom.sdk.tts.android.AndroidTextToSpeechEngine are now in Public Preview. These APIs add functionality for querying available voices and setting preferred text-to-speech voice.
  • Update docs of the com.tomtom.sdk.navigation.ui.NavigationFragment.changeTextToSpeechEngine() function.
Fixes
  • Fix crash that previously occurred when TomTomNavigation.navigationResumeSnapshot() was requested in Idle navigation state.
  • Fix route projection progress handling when switching engine.
  • Group together the navigation events that are published per navigation engine.
  • Select offline mode for offline hybrid first, in an instance where there is no data available.
  • Switch earlier to online data store if the offline data is not present in the current area (offline first hybrid mode).

Routing

New features
  • Long distance EV routing now works offline.
Updates

  • Extend OfflineRangeCalculatorComponentTestWithMap.
