Intercom working fine on Xcode Simulator builds but not loading on simulator

Edit: Title should be “Intercom working fine on Xcode Simulator builds but not loading on testflight builds” but I can't edit it or delete this.I have added the camera privacy reason. Yet on TestFlight builds Intercom does not load. I am wondering if the SDKs access to a certain URL is being blocked because it needs to be manually allowlisted somewhere in the privacy configuration? But not sure on that. Documentation does not say anything about this.Are there other reasons this may happen?

Bug Report: Intercom overrides App tint at the top level of SwiftUI apps

Seems that when installed Intercom overrides the tint color for the whole app. There are ways around that of course but this is likely causing unexpected repercussions for SwiftUI apps using tints.

Crash in IntercomSDK_ITBBlockListViewController

Hi!We’re experiencing a non negligible amount of crashes with our iOS app. We’re using the Intercom iOS SDK v18.2.0 (AKA the latest). As far as we can see, the user goes into the intercom integration, and at some point it crashes.Here is the crash-logs from Sentry: OS Version: iOS 18.0.1 (22A3370)Report Version: 104Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)Crashed Thread: 0Application Specific Information:Expected dequeued view to be returned to the collection view in preparation for display.

Crash on launch for users on iOS 15.8

Hi!We’re using the Intercom SDK on our iOS app, currently using version 18.1.0. We’ve been getting a lot of crash reports and it seems to mostly happen to users on iOS 15.8, looking into it we found a stack trace that points to swizzling done by the Intercom SDK: Any ideas on how to fix this?

Issue with Opening Intercom Chat via Push Notification on iOS (React Native)

Hello, I’m experiencing a problem where the Intercom chat does not open when a user taps on a push notification on iOS. I have implemented the Intercom React Native plugin as per the documentation, and the messaging functionality works perfectly. Notifications are received correctly, but tapping on them does not open the chat as expected. Environment Details: • Platform: iOS• React Native Version: 0.74• Intercom React Native Plugin Version: 8.1.0 Problem Description: • The Intercom messenger is fully integrated into my app, and users can send and receive messages without any issues.• Push notifications from Intercom are successfully delivered to the device.• According to the documentation, tapping on a push notification should automatically open the relevant chat within the app. However, this is not happening on iOS.• When I tap on a push notification while the app is closed, the app opens but does not display the chat. Instead, it remains on the previous screen or the home screen.• I

SwiftUI application using Intercom SDK cause slow launch time

We’re experiencing a slow launch time in our SwiftUI app, about 35% of the slow launch time is caused by Intercom initialization.  The stack trace indicates that multiple functions within the Intercom SDK, especially the initialization processes involving IMCCrashHandler, IMCConfig, HomeConfig, and HomeHeader, are contributing significantly to app launch latency. The UIKitCore and CoreImage components (like UIGraphicsImageRenderer and CIImage) invoked through ICAssets.backgroundImageViewWith also add processing overhead, which may impact the performance during launch.Here is the full stack trace given by XCodes tools:dyld start1. App.main() - SwiftUI2. AppDelegate.application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) - SwiftUI3.

Hello,I faced with unexpected experience when I cannot to capture video in Intercom messenger using iOS SDK since 17.2.0. Could you please help me to resolve this issue?My steps:Update iOS SDK to 18.2.0. Run the app, check that there is Intercom’s warning “Add NSMicrophoneUsageDescription...”  in Xcode console. Add NSMicrophoneUsageDescription to Info.plist according to Installation guide, step 2.  Run the app again, check the message is not printed. Open Intercom messenger, start a new conversation. Press a green plus icon. It opens an action sheet, choose Camera. The app asks only for camera permission, not microphone. Allow camera usage. Camera opens → only photo capturing is available, not video. Change SDK version to 17.1.2.  Run the app, repeat step 5, press a grey camera icon.  The app asks for microphone permission. Allow it. Camera opens. → Both options, Photo and Video, are available for choosing. Update SDK to 17.2.0, repeat steps 5-7. → Again, only photo capturing is availa

UI Issue with Close Button in Intercom SDK on Android 15

We are currently working on our upcoming release to the Google Play Store, ensuring compatibility with Android 15. As part of this effort, we have recently updated our app to use the latest version of the Intercom SDK (15.9.1).During our testing phase, we encountered an issue specific to devices running Android 15. The problem pertains to the UI when attaching a video or image in the Intercom messenger.The "X" close button overlaps with the status bar, making it difficult to close the attachment preview.This behavior is observed only on Android 15 and seems related to the new edge-to-edge enforcement introduced in this version of Android.Here are the steps to reproduce the issue:1. Open the Intercom messenger in our app.2. Click on the attachment icon and choose Gallery.3. Select an image or video.4. Observe that the close ("X") button overlaps with the status bar, making it difficult to close the preview. You can view a screen shot of the issue here: Intercom UI Issue android 15 on at

Deadlock when unit testing on iOS

When running unit tests in Xcode Cloud we often get a test failure because the tests failed to start. In those cases we get a spindump indicating that there is a deadlock caused by something Intercom does as a result of [UIBarAppearance init] being called. Anyone seen something similar? It seems to be related to a global initializer so just linking against Intercom will cause the problem.  Just to be sure I’ve changed our code to not call any Intercom methods when running as part of XCTests but it appears to still be happening.

How can I get the currently logged in user?

I am using the React Native SDK and I would like to know the userId of the currently logged in user. Use-case: after updating to the latest SDK, loginUserWithUserAttributes throws an exception when the user is already logged in.But I have no way to know if the user is already logged into Intercom (after an app restart for example), and if logged it, if it is logged in using the correct user. I could store this in my app, but this makes the code much more complex. The best solution would be to have an Intercom method to return the currently logged user, if any.
