Fixes and other changes
SHAND-3092: Fix Shielding Tool error on decoding app code
Description: The Shielding Tool failed to decode some applications that were compiled with debug information. For example, if the application used androidx.compose.ui:ui:1.2.0 and compiled the application with debug, App Shielding exited with an error.
Status: This issue has been fixed. The Shielding Tool now decodes the debug information correctly.
SHAND-3155: Fix false positive hooking framework detection
Description: App Shielding version 5.0.0 introduced a better detection for Xposed modules. With this, however, App Shielding classified legitimate apps as if they were using Xposed.
Status: This issue has been fixed.
Known limitations
The limitations described here have not yet been solved for the current Mobile Application Shielding version. Possible workarounds are described where available.
Android App Bundles
The OneSpan Customer Portal support for Android App Bundles does not yet include instant-enabled app bundles.
Detection of root hiding tool on new Android versions
Due to the nature of root hiding tools and the increasing restrictions Android imposes on applications as of Android 9, OneSpan Mobile Application Shielding may not be able to reliably detect a rooted device that uses root hiding tools.
