These release notes provide information on the new features, newly supported devices, enhancements, resolved escalations, and bug fixes completed in the Appspace App version 2.91 for purpose-built industry-standard devices (such as Appspace for Devices on Android and iOS tablets, and the Appspace app on Chrome OS, Google Meet, BrightSign, Cisco, and Crestron devices), ideal for signage and video walls.ImportantBeginning January 1, 2025, Appspace will implement a new Device App Version Lifecycle Policy to ensure optimal performance, security, and feature compatibility. This policy introduces a 9-month rolling support window for Appspace device apps.To learn more about this policy and how to keep your devices updated, please refer to the Appspace Device App Version Lifecycle Policy in the Appspace Knowledge Center.Prior version release notes for Devices & Built-In Apps:Version 2.90 Versions 2.72-2.80Older versions are unsupported. NoteIf on an Android or iOS mobile device, refer to Appspace App 8.x Release Notes for Mobile. App for Devices 2.9125 Nov 2025, TuesdayRelease Platform: AllFeatures Description ChromeOS Version 138 Compatibility Update The Appspace App for Devices now supports ChromeOS version 138, ensuring continued compatibility and optimal performance on the latest ChromeOS platform. API Target Level Updated to 36 The Appspace App for Devices (Android and Android TV) has been updated to target API level 36, ensuring compliance with the latest Android platform requirements and enhancing security, compatibility, and performance. Automatic Device Authentication Token Recovery Devices now automatically detect and resolve invalid authentication tokens during startup. When a mismatch is found between cached tokens and the device’s identity due to browser cache issues, token claiming conflicts, or storage problems, the system will: Clear invalid tokens from local storage Report the incident through telemetry for monitoring Obtain new valid tokens automatically This improvement enables devices to self recover from token related authentication issues without requiring manual intervention or database maintenance. Configurable PWA Cache File Size Limit A new build argument, maxFileSizeToCacheInBytes, has been introduced to allow configuration of the maximum file size that the Progressive Web App (PWA) can cache. This enhancement provides greater flexibility in managing cached content and optimizing application performance. Enhanced Logging for Cordova Brother Printer Integration The Appspace App Client now provides improved logging for the Cordova Brother Printer integration. This enhancement addresses diagnostic needs by capturing more detailed information during printing operations, facilitating easier troubleshooting and support. Enhanced Network Disruption Handling for Microsoft Teams Rooms The application now provides improved handling of network disruptions for Microsoft Teams Rooms. When a network interruption occurs and cached content is available, the app will no longer trigger the ServerUnreachable event. Instead, it will report an “Unhealthy” state during health checks, ensuring more accurate status reporting and a smoother user experience during temporary connectivity issues. ARM64 and ARM7 Download Package Enhancements A new ARM64 package has been introduced to provide optimal performance and compatibility for modern devices running Android 16 and above. Additionally, the existing ARM7 package has been updated to ensure continued support for older or legacy hardware.  Maintenance ReleasesAPC-8076 - When provisioning Zoom Rooms on Windows devices, an error message "Failed to provision device" is displayed and content does not autoplay, despite successful provisioning on Neat Bar devices.

This behavior is due to the absence of proper TV-to-app mappings for DEGREE_X formats, resulting in the device defaulting to landscape mode.

The Appspace 8.12.0-ac.4 release introduces a range of new features and improvements across Space Reservation, and Digital Signage capabilities.  In this article: New Features & Updates (ac.4) (Preview) Space Reservation Digital Signage Appendix​​​​​​​ Release Schedule Information 21 Nov 2025, FridayNew Features & Updates (ac.4) (Preview) Space Reservation Features Description VergeSense Integration for Space Reservation VergeSense has been added as a supported IoT driver for space reservation events. This integration enables the Appspace platform to utilize VergeSense sensors for enhanced occupancy detection and management within reservation workflows.  Digital Signage Features Description Obsolete Application Version Management Technical Info: Device-Level Pinning Location-Level Pinning To improve the reliability of software updates, the platform now provides clear identification and handling of obsolete or unsupported application versions. When a device or location is pinned to an outdated version, administrators are promptly notified and guided to take corrective action. Key enhancements include: Obsolete or unsupported app versions are displayed in red, accompanied by a clear warning. Hovering over the obsolete version reveals a tooltip: “The pinned app version is no longer available. Please select a different version.” Obsolete versions are automatically removed from version selection dropdowns, preventing new devices or locations from being assigned unsupported builds. The flagging logic is fully integrated with the location inheritance hierarchy, ensuring that inherited devices are also flagged if their parent location’s pinned version becomes obsolete. These improvements help administrators maintain up-to-date deployments and prevent the use of unsupported application builds.    Appendix​​​​​​​ Release Schedule InformationThe following is the release management schedule as per our Release Calendar for Public Cloud: New Appspace functionality and major platform optimizations will now be released under a quartely release cycle, scheduled at 08:00 pm CST on Friday.
