New features

  • Improved reliability and first-time successful scanning experience
    • Avoiding Double Scans of the Front Side: For a more reliable scanning process, BlinkID now prompts users to flip the document when they scan the front side twice. This improves the overall experience and reduces the chance of mistakes.
    • Starting with the Right Side: If users attempt to scan the back side of a document first, BlinkID will prompt them to begin with the front side. This feature ensures that users follow the correct order, leading to a more reliable and user-friendly experience.

Accessibility improvements

  • Enhanced button contrast - Improved contrast for the close and flashlight buttons, making them easier to distinguish.
  • Improved focus order - Enhanced focus order on help and onboarding screens to ensure proper reading of instructions when using TalkBack.
  • Accessible button names - Added accessible names to the help and flashlight buttons, enabling TalkBack to read them correctly.
  • Glare warning toast - The toast is now correctly detected and read by TalkBack.

Bug fixes

  • Fallback for barcode scanning - Barcode ID recognition mode will now extract information from any supported barcode if full document recognition fails. Initially available only for US and Canadian documents, this feature is now available to all documents.
  • MRZ field on US documents - Set to optional by default and currently refers to: Minnesota (DL & ID), New York (DL & ID), Vermont (DL) and Washington (DL & ID).
  • AdditionalProcessingInfo - In cases of an empty result, this field now provides details about the reasons why scanning failed.
  • Improved handling of face photo occlusion - The UI message is slightly changed to prompt users to keep the face photo fully visible when there is a finger occlusion.

Other changes

  • The SDK is now supported on Android 15 16KB page size devices.
  • Added imageExtractionFailures to AdditionalProcessingInfo - this allows clients to actively track if any ImageExtractionType (FullDocument, Face, Signature) is not visible on the presented document.
  • Added a new result member, barcodeStepUsed, to both BlinkIdSingleSideRecognizer and BlinkIdMultiSideRecognizer. This member indicates whether the barcode scanning step was utilized during the process.
  • Added two new settings for BlinkIdSingleSideRecognizer and BlinkIdMultiSideRecognizer:
    • allowBarcodeScanOnly - allows barcode recognition to proceed even if the initial extraction fails - set to false by default
    • combineFrameResults - enables the aggregation of data from multiple frames - set to true by default
