In March 2026, delivered a foundational push notification infrastructure for the intercom-react-native wrapper with strong cross-platform integration, enhanced prebuild flows, and improved developer experience in a monorepo. The work advances reliability, platform parity, and maintainability, directly enabling more consistent user engagement via push notifications across iOS and Android while simplifying setup for developers. Key outcomes include a Kotlin FirebaseMessagingService generated at prebuild time via an Expo config plugin, registration of the service in AndroidManifest, and conflict-detection logic to prevent FCM service clashes. The implementation extends ExpoFirebaseMessagingService when expo-notifications is present, ensuring runtime compatibility with both Intercom and Expo notification handlers. Dependency updates and native infrastructure changes were released in a 9.6.5 patch bump to reflect the native and prebuild-impacting changes.

Month: 2025-11 — Focused on strengthening the API contract for away mode synchronization in intercom/Intercom-OpenAPI. Delivered an OpenAPI enhancement to automatically propagate away mode setting changes, enabling client applications to reflect updates without manual intervention. This improves cross-client consistency and reduces follow-up work.
