Install referrer API

When installing version 0.5.15 of the SDK I noticed that the AndroidManifest.xml file included the following element;

<!-- Add this for Branch for install referrer tracking-->
<receiver android:name="io.branch.referral.InstallListener" android:exported="true">
  <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER" />
  </intent-filter>
</receiver>

This intent is to be deprecated at the end of February 2020; https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2019/11/still-using-installbroadcast-switch-to.html.

Please can you tell me if the current Unity SDK implements the Install Referrer API (https://developer.android.com/google/play/installreferrer/library)? If not, is there a timeline for it’s introduction into the SDK? Do we need to do anything such as fowarding data from our own API implementation (similar to what we had to do when multiple sources required the referrer intent data).

@JimmyDeemo on Friday or on Monday we will have new version of Unity SDK, if you can wait for new version - wait please

@JimmyDeemo current Unity SDK does not implement this feature. I will discuss this with android sdk developers about how to implement this functional in Unity SDK and will answer you asap.
