  • v8.50.0 Changes

    July 22, 2026

    👍 Android 17 support

    • ✅ We've put Android 17 through a set of rigorous tests. We're now officially giving it the Sentry stamp of compatibility .(#5796)

    🛠 Fixes

    • ⬇️ Reduce main-thread work during Sentry.init by resolving the shake-detector accelerometer off the main thread (~1.75ms on a Pixel 10) (#5784)
    • 🚀 Backfill release, environment, distribution, tags, and app version/build—and use the matching replay-on-error sample rate—for ApplicationExitInfo ANR and native crash events captured before SDK initialization, without reusing options cached by a later app update (#5762)
    • 0️⃣ SentryTagModifierNode.isImportantForBounds now matches the default behavior and returns true (#5789)

    • 🌲 Prevent a StackOverflowError when a beforeSend, beforeBreadcrumb, beforeSendLog, or beforeEnvelope callback triggers another capture (directly or through a logging integration such as Timber) (#5737)

      • Captures made from within a user callback (event, transaction, breadcrumb, log, envelope, or check-in) are now dropped while that callback runs, instead of recursing. Captures made by event processors are unaffected.

    • 🗄 Replace deprecated ThrowableProxy with LogEvent#getThrown() in sentry-log4j2 (#5751)

    Dependencies

    • ⬆️ Bump Native SDK from v0.15.3 to v0.15.4 (#5793)

    • 🔌 The SDK is now compiled with Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.1 (#5779)

  • v8.49.0 Changes

    July 16, 2026

    🔋 Features

    • Session Replay: Record segment names (transaction names) (#5763)

    • ➕ Add io.sentry:sentry-opentelemetry-bom to align Sentry OpenTelemetry modules with tested OpenTelemetry dependencies (#5629)

    🛠 Fixes

    • Session Replay: Fix first recording segment missing for replays in buffer mode (#5753)
    • Session Replay: Fix error-to-replay linkage in buffer mode (#5754)
    • ⏱ Prevent logs and metrics from remaining queued after a flush scheduling race (#5756)
    • 🛠 Fix main thread identification for tombstone (native crash) events (#5742)
    • 🖨 Prevent malformed JDBC URLs, which may contain credentials, from being printed to stdout (#5656)
    • 🔧 Restrict JVM-global proxy authentication credentials to challenges from the configured proxy host (#5656)
    • Sanitize Spring 7 and Spring Jakarta WebClient span descriptions to prevent embedded URL credentials from being sent to Sentry (#5656)
    • Respect tracePropagationTargets when injecting Sentry tracing headers through the OpenTelemetry OTLP propagator (#5656)

    🐎 Performance

    • ⏱ Schedule transaction idle/deadline timeouts on a shared, dedicated executor instead of spawning a Timer thread per transaction (#5670)

    Dependencies

    • ⬆️ Bump OpenTelemetry to support Spring Boot 4.1 (#5573)

      • If this causes issues for you because you are also using Spring Boot Dependency Management Plugin (io.spring.dependency-management),
        ⬇️ which may downgrade the OpenTelemetry SDK, please have a look at the changelog entry above that explains how to use sentry-opentelemetry-bom.
      • OpenTelemetry to 1.63.0 (was 1.60.1)
      • OpenTelemetry Instrumentation to 2.29.0 (was 2.26.0)
      • OpenTelemetry Instrumentation Alpha to 2.29.0-alpha (was 2.26.0-alpha)
      • OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions to 1.42.0 (was 1.40.0)
      • OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions Alpha to 1.42.0-alpha (was 1.40.0-alpha)

    • ⬆️ Bump Native SDK from v0.15.2 to v0.15.3 (#5728)

  • v8.48.0 Changes

    July 08, 2026

    🔋 Features

    • ➕ Add Sentry.extendAppStart(), Sentry.finishExtendedAppStart(), and Sentry.getExtendedAppStartSpan() to extend the app start measurement past the first frame for extra launch-time work on Android (#5604)

    • Add trace_metric_byte data category and record byte-level client reports when trace metrics are discarded (#5626)

    • 👌 Support the io.sentry.tombstone.report-historical manifest option to enable historical tombstone reporting via AndroidManifest.xml <meta-data> (#5683)

    🛠 Fixes

    • 🛠 Fix NoSuchMethodError from using Math.floorDiv/Math.floorMod overloads that are unavailable on Java 8 (#5743)
    • 🛠 Fix main thread identification parsing for ApplicationExitInfo ANRs (#5733)
    • Do not send threads without stacktraces for ApplicationExitInfo ANRs (#5733)
    • 🔊 Record byte-level client reports when event processors discard logs or trace metrics (#5718)
    • Name the device-info caching thread SentryDeviceInfoCache so all threads spawned by the SDK are identifiable (#5684)
    • 🌲 Apply byte-category rate limits to log and trace metric envelope items (#5716)

    🐎 Performance

    • Skip Hint allocation in Scope.addBreadcrumb when no beforeBreadcrumb callback is set (#5689)
    • Speed up scope persistence by detecting the Sentry executor thread via a marker instead of a Thread.getName() name scan on every scope mutation (#5691)
    • ✂ Remove executor prewarm during SDK init (#5681)
      • The single-threaded SentryExecutorService queued the prewarm work ahead of the first useful task, so it could only delay init work, never speed it up; the thread and class loading it warmed are paid identically by the first real task submitted right after.

  • v8.47.0 Changes

    July 02, 2026

    Behavioral Changes

    • SentryOkHttpInterceptor::intercept now throws IOException. This is a source-only and Java-only breaking change (#5654)

    🛠 Fixes

    • 💻 Don't start a redundant UI interaction transaction when a transaction is already bound to the Scope (#5491)

      • Previously, SentryGestureListener always started a UI transaction and only afterwards skipped binding it to the Scope when a manually-bound transaction already existed, leaving the new transaction to be dropped as an idle transaction without children.

    • 🛠 Fix potential NPE within Scope.endSession() (#5657)

    • 🛠 Fix memory leak in ReplayIntegration due to persisting executor not being shut down (#5627)

    • 🛠 Fix AbstractMethodError when compose-ui 1.11+ is used in combination with Modifier.sentryTag() or the Sentry Kotlin compiler plugin (#5672)

    🐎 Performance

    • ✅ Speed up touch gesture target detection on deeply nested view hierarchies by hit-testing in local coordinates instead of calling getLocationOnScreen per view (#5595)
    • Probe class availability without initializing the class during SDK init (#5635)
    • 👻 Avoid constructing an exception per view when resolving view ids during view-hierarchy and gesture capture (#5631)
    • Start the frame metrics thread lazily on first collection instead of during SDK init (#5641)
    • 🔒 Reduce SentryId and SpanId allocation overhead by replacing their per-instance LazyEvaluator (and its lock) with a lightweight lazily-generated String. (#5645)
    • 🔒 Lazily allocate the ReentrantLock backing AutoClosableReentrantLock to avoid eager lock allocations for SDK objects that never contend during SentryAndroid.init (#5643)

  • v8.46.0 Changes

    June 25, 2026

    Behavioral Changes

    • Collections returned by scope (e.g. getBreadcrumbs, getTags, getAttachments) are shared state and should not be mutated. (#5541)

      • Previously, when going through CombinedScopeView, we were returning a copy where mutations didn't show up in the underlying scopes.
      • This has now changed in order to reduce SDK overhead.

    • Date objects returned by SDK data model getters are shared state and should not be mutated. (#5603)

      • Previously, these getters returned defensive copies for some date fields.
      • This has now changed in order to reduce SDK overhead.

    🐎 Performance

    • ⬇️ Reduce writer buffer size from 8192 to 512 (#5544)
    • ✂ Remove redundant event map copies (#5536)
    • ⚡️ Optimize combined scope by adding an early return if only one scope has data (#5541)
    • ⬇️ Reduce model access overhead by avoiding defensive Date copies in SDK data model getters. (#5603)
    • ⬇️ Reduce timestamp parsing and formatting overhead with Sentry-specific ISO-8601 handling. (#5602)
    • ⬇️ Reduce JSON serialization overhead by creating the reflection serializer only when unknown-object fallback serialization is needed. (#5601)
    • ⬇️ Reduce JSON serialization overhead by allocating reflection cycle-tracking state only when reflection serialization is used. (#5600)
    • ⬇️ Reduce context serialization overhead by sorting key snapshots with arrays instead of temporary lists. (#5599)
    • ⬇️ Reduce breadcrumb allocation overhead by creating the Breadcrumb data map only when data is added. (#5598)
    • ⬇️ Reduce JSON serialization overhead by lowering the initial JsonWriter nesting stack size while preserving on-demand growth. (#5591)
    • ⬇️ Reduce timestamp helper overhead by replacing unnecessary Calendar usage in DateUtils with direct Date creation. (#5589)
    • ⬇️ Reduce Android startup overhead by using the default timezone directly on older devices or when no timezone info is available in the locale. (#5587)

  • v8.45.0 Changes

    June 24, 2026

    🔋 Features

    • On Android 15+ (API 35), the standalone app.start transaction now reports why the OS started the process via app.vitals.start.reason trace data (e.g. launcher, broadcast, service, content_provider), derived from ApplicationStartInfo.getReason(). You can search and group by this attribute in the Trace Explorer. (#5552)

    🛠 Fixes

    • 👉 Use System.nanoTime() for cron check-in duration measurement to avoid incorrect durations from wall-clock adjustments (#5611)
    • 🛠 Fix crash when getHistoricalProcessStartReasons is called from an isolated or wrong-userId process (#5597)
    • 🚀 Release MediaMuxer when a replay segment has no encodable frames to avoid a resource leak (#5583)

    Dependencies

  • v8.44.1 Changes

    June 19, 2026

    🛠 Fixes

    • 🛠 Fix FirstDrawDoneListener leaking an OnGlobalLayoutListener per registration (#5567)

    🔋 Features

    • ➕ Add experimental SentrySQLiteDriver to sentry-android-sqlite for instrumenting androidx.sqlite.SQLiteDriver (#5563)
      • To use it, pass SQLiteDriver to SentrySQLiteDriver.create(...)
      • Requires androidx.sqlite:sqlite (2.5.0+) on runtime classpath (typically provided by Room or SQLDelight)

    Dependencies

  • v8.44.0 Changes

    June 17, 2026

    🔋 Features

    • ➕ Add enableStandaloneAppStartTracing option to send app start as a standalone transaction instead of attaching it as a child span of the first activity transaction (#5342)
      • Disabled by default; opt in via options.isEnableStandaloneAppStartTracing = true or manifest meta-data io.sentry.standalone-app-start-tracing.enable
      • Emits a transaction named App Start with op app.start, carrying the existing app start measurements and phase spans (process.load, contentprovider.load, application.load, activity lifecycle spans) as direct children of the root
      • The standalone transaction shares the same traceId as the first ui.load activity transaction so they remain linked in the trace view
      • Also covers non-activity starts (broadcast receivers, services, content providers)

    👌 Improvements

    • 🐎 Reduce boxing to improve performance (#5523, #5527, #5551)
    • 🐎 Replace Date with a unix timestamp in SentryNanotimeDate to improve performance (#5550)
      • SentryNanotimeDate is now marked @ApiStatus.Internal. A new (long unixDateMillis, long nanos) constructor was added, where unixDateMillis is milliseconds since the epoch. The existing (Date, long) constructor is retained but deprecated.

    Dependencies

    • ⬆️ Upgrade to asyncProfiler 4.4 (#5418)
    • ⬆️ Bump Native SDK from v0.14.2 to v0.15.0 (#5528)

    🛠 Fixes

    • 🛠 Fix attachments being duplicated on native events that carry scope attachments (#5548)
    • 🛠 Fix performance collector scheduling many tasks in a row (#5524)

  • v8.43.3 Changes

    June 24, 2026

    🛠 Fixes

    • 🛠 Fix crash when getHistoricalProcessStartReasons is called from an isolated or wrong-userId process (#5597)

  • v8.43.2 Changes

    June 10, 2026

    👌 Improvements

    • 👌 Improve SDK init performance by replacing java.net.URI with custom string parsing for DSN (#5448)
    • ✂ Remove unnecessary boxing to improve performance (#5520)

    🛠 Fixes

    • Session Replay: Fix VerifyError in Compose masking under DexGuard/R8 obfuscation (#5507)
    • 🏗 Session Replay: Fix Compose view masking not working on obfuscated/minified builds (#5503)
