When Firebase fails the FCM token will be set to an empty string and startSession will happen normally instead of not happening at all. 3. Glide will now show a stack trace when it fails to load an image into a notification. 4. In App Notifications will check if activity is changing configuration or is finishing before showing. |

| 29.10.2019 | 3.0.1 | 1. Created new class - PulsateFcmHandler - is now responsible for FCM logic. 2.

ComponentCallbacks2.TRIM_MEMORY_UI_HIDDEN has been replaced with @OnLifecycleEvent(Lifecycle.Event.ON_START) and @OnLifecycleEvent(Lifecycle.Event.ON_STOP). ComponentCallbacks2.TRIM_MEMORY_UI_HIDDEN would sometimes fail to give a callback when the App is closed. 10. PulsateManager: - New Method - setFcmMessageListener(IPulsateValueListener listener) - sets a listener that allows Developers to receive all FCM Push Notifications that the SDK receives. - isLocationUpdatesEnabled, isMicrofencingEnabled, isInAppNotificationEnabled, isPushNotificationEnabled, isUserAuthorized, isNewThreadButtonEnabled, isLocationWithBeaconEvents, getPrivacy, getLastKnownLocation - no longer return values directly, these methods now return values to the new IPulsateValueListener. 11.
