Release Date: 12-08-2026
🚀 Enhancements
- Show the push notification permission banner only when a push can actually be delivered to the device
- Refreshed the messenger top action bar with larger avatars and updated typography

18.7.0
Immutable
release. Only release title and notes can be modified.
Release Date: 06-08-2026
🚀 Enhancements
- Inline
<code>spans in messages now render in a monospace font on the code background - R8 can now remove unused Intercom SDK classes from minified host apps — the SDK's consumer ProGuard rules no longer pin every class. Names and members of retained classes are unchanged, so reflection, Gson parsing and WebView bridges behave as before
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed crash reports being attributed to Intercom when an Intercom frame merely appeared in a host-app crash's stack trace — attribution is now by throw site
👉 Note

🐛 Bug Fixes
