# RELEASES

## LinkKit V13.0.2 — 2026-07-01

### Changes

- Updates the bundled iOS SDK to LinkKit 7.0.1, which restores native React
  Native wrapper detection for v13 apps.
- Restores Android manifest metadata so the native Android SDK reports React
  Native wrapper usage instead of plain Android.

### Android

Android SDK [6.0.0](https://github.com/plaid/plaid-link-android)

### Additions

- Adds native session APIs for Standard Link, Layer, and Headless Link.
- Adds Embedded Search continuation support.
- Adds Layer submit support.

### Changes

- Updates Android integration to `com.plaid.link:sdk-core:6.0.0`.

### Removals

- Removes the legacy React Native Android bridge implementation.

#### Requirements

| Name           | Version                            |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| Android Studio | 4.0+                               |
| Kotlin         | 1.9.25+ (Kotlin integrations only) |

### iOS

iOS SDK [7.0.1](https://github.com/plaid/plaid-link-ios/releases/tag/7.0.1)

### Changes

- Fix React Native Version Parsing

#### Requirements

| Name  | Version   |
| ----- | --------- |
| Xcode | >= 16.1.0 |
| iOS   | >= 15.0   |

## LinkKit V13.0.1 — 2026-06-30

### Changes

- Fixes Expo SDK 56 iOS prebuild failures caused by the npm-packed
  `LinkKit.xcframework` including an unsupported Mac Catalyst slice whose
  framework symlinks were not preserved during packaging.
- Ships an iOS-only `LinkKit.xcframework` with supported device and simulator
  slices.
- Adds package and CI validation for LinkKit XCFramework slices, signatures, and
  Expo SDK 56 iOS prebuild compatibility.

## LinkKit V13.0.0 — 2026-06-26

#### Requirements

This SDK now works with any supported version of React Native that supports Expo
Modules. Expo Go is not supported because Plaid Link requires custom native
code; Expo apps should use a development build or another custom native runtime.

### Changes

- Rebuilds the React Native SDK on Expo Modules.
- Replaces the legacy global `create`, `open`, `submit`, `openLink`,
  `PlaidLink`, and `usePlaidEmitter` APIs with session objects:
  `createPlaidLinkSession`, `createPlaidLayerSession`, and
  `createPlaidHeadlessSession`.
- Adds `PlaidEmbeddedSearchView` for Embedded Search on iOS and Android.
- Adds Headless Link support through `createPlaidHeadlessSession`.
- Updates Layer to use `createPlaidLayerSession`, `session.open()`, and
  `session.submit({ phoneNumber, dateOfBirth, params })`.
- Updates `syncFinanceKit` to a promise API. FinanceKit remains iOS-only and
  rejects on Android.
- Uses `metadataJson` as the canonical callback metadata field. Update stale
  `metadata_json` references from v11 or v12 TypeScript code.
- Removes `errorDisplayMessage` from `LinkError`; use `displayMessage`.
- Renames `LinkAccountSubtypeInvestment.SIIP` to
  `LinkAccountSubtypeInvestment.SIPP`.
- Publishes JavaScript and TypeScript entrypoints from `build/index.js` and
  `build/index.d.ts`.
- Ships the bundled iOS `LinkKit.xcframework` in the npm package because
  LinkKit 7 no longer supports CocoaPods distribution. This intentionally
  increases the npm tarball size compared with v12.
- Excludes generated example projects, coverage output, and stale `dist` output
  from the npm package.
- Adds CI package sanity checks to verify package entrypoints and packed npm
  contents.
- Aligns iOS fallback `onExit` payloads with the public React Native callback
  contract by emitting `{ error, metadata }`.
- Adds callback contract tests to catch iOS, Android, or TypeScript payload
  shape drift.

[V13_MIGRATION_GUIDE.md](./V13_MIGRATION_GUIDE.md).
