Add Messaging, Voice, and Authentication to your apps with Vonage Communications APIs
Visit the Vonage API Developer Portal[Update]: The new OTPublisher.setAudioTransformers() method lets you set (and clear) audio transformers. One transformer, the noise suppression filter, is supported. To use this, call the setAudioTransformers() method of the OTPublisher ref, and pass in an array with one object that has a name property set to 'NoiseSuppression' and a properties property set to an empty string:
publisherRef.setAudioTransformers([{
name: 'NoiseSuppression',
properties: '',
}]);
Important: To use this method, you must add the Vonage Media Transformer library to your project, separately from the OpenTok React Native SDK. See Vonage Media Library integration.
[Update]: This version adds support for enabling single peer connection for the client, by setting the enableSinglePeerConnection property of the options prop of the OTSession component to true. For more information see this documentation.
[Update]: This version updates the Vonage Video Android SDK and iOS SDK to version 2.28.0.
[Update]: The Vonage Video iOS and Android SDKs loaded by this version are reduced in size by removing Vonage Media Library code.
Important: In order to use the OTPublisher.setVideoTransformers() method (which uses the Vonage Media Library), you must add the Vonage Media Library separately from the Vonage Video React Native SDK. For details, see Vonage Media Library integration.
[Update]: For Android, this version of the library requires a minimum Android API level of 24.

[Fix]: This version fixes the OTSubscriber captionReceived event handler. It also fixes the OTPublisher publishCaptions option in iOS.
[Fix]: Calling OTSubscriber.getRtcStatsReport() method was resulting in an error. This version fixes the issue.
[Fix]: Setting the enableStereoOutput option of the OTSession component was causing apps to crash in Android. The custom audio driver (used in Android when the enableStereoOutput option is set) is broken. This version disables the enableStereoOutput option in Android.

[Fix] Toggling between a screen and camera video source for publisher caused apps to crash in iOS. This version fixes the issue (issue #710).
videoSource setting set to "screen") failed if the app did not have camera access permission. This version fixes the issue, so that screen-sharing can proceed without camera access permission.Note: In Android 6.0 (API Level 23) and higher, the OpenTok React Native SDK automatically adds the camera access permission. However, an app or user can disable it independently of the SDK.
PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.CAMERA or PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.RECORD_AUDIO were not true. This version fixes that, by having audio-only or video-only publishers skip the PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.CAMERA or PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.RECORD_AUDIO check if the videoTrack or audioTrack property of the properties prop of the OTPublisher component is set to false. You can set these props to false based on these permissions:import { PermissionsAndroid } from 'react-native';
// ...
<OTPublisher
properties={{
videoTrack={{(Platform.OS === 'ios' || PermissionsAndroid.CAMERA)}}
}}
/>
Note: In Android 6.0 (API Level 23) and higher, the OpenTok React Native SDK automatically adds these permissions. However, an app or user can disable them independently of the SDK.

[Update]: This version adds a new OTPublisher audioFallback option, which supports both subscriber and publisher audio fallback. The audioFallback.subscriber property replaces the OTPublisher audioFallbackEnabled option, which is deprecated.
The OTPublisher component has new callback functions for publisher audio fallback-related events: videoDisabled(), videoEnabled(), videoDisableWarning(), and videoDisableWarningLifted(). See the audio fallback developer guide.
