New Features #

Voice Guidance & Accessibility

• Added VoiceGuidanceConfig — fully configurable TTS settings (language, volume, speech rate, pitch, repeat interval)
• Added VoiceGuidanceService — debounced TTS wrapper built on flutter_tts that prevents audio flooding from ~30 fps camera callbacks
• Voice guidance speaks: initial instruction, face centering feedback, each challenge instruction, and completion/failure result
• Fine-grained control flags: speakPositioningFeedback, speakChallengeInstructions, speakCompletion
• Two convenience presets: VoiceGuidanceConfig.minimal() (no centering speech) and VoiceGuidanceConfig.accessibility() (slower rate, shorter repeat interval)
• Exported VoiceGuidanceConfig from the top-level package barrel
• Zero overhead when disabled — VoiceGuidanceService is only instantiated when voiceGuidance?.enabled == true

Futuristic UI Painter Styles

• Added 13 new animated canvas overlay painter styles selectable via LivenessStyle enum:
  • quantum — pulsing energy rings with particle scatter effect
  • liquidMetal — flowing chrome shimmer with metallic sheen
  • cosmos — deep-space star field with nebula gradient
  • hologram — cyan holographic scan lines and grid
  • singularity — gravitational lens distortion vortex
  • synapse — neural network node-and-edge animation
  • kinetic — motion-blur speed lines and momentum trails
  • prism — rainbow light refraction prismatic effect
  • obsidian — volcanic glass dark sheen with ember glow
  • monolith — stark geometric brutalist framing
  • chronos — clockwork gears and time-dial overlay
  • floating — soft levitating bubble particles
  • sumi — Japanese ink-wash calligraphic brushwork

Futuristic Oval Overlay (FuturisticOvalOverlay)

• Style-matched animated oval face frame with per-style border color, glow, and corner HUD brackets
• Rotating progress ring that fills as liveness challenges are completed
• Animated scan-line sweep across the face region

Liveness Style Picker (LivenessStylePicker)

• New bottom-sheet widget for switching painter styles at runtime
• Live animated mini-previews of all 13 styles rendered inside the picker

Challenge Hint Widget Enhancements

• Added ChallengeHintStyle enum with 5 visual styles: plain, glass, futuristic, minimal, neon
• Added ChallengeHintAnimation enum with 4 entrance animations: scaleIn, slideUp, bounceIn, flipIn
• Hint widget now respects both style and animation on every challenge transition

Dependencies #

• Added flutter_tts: ^4.2.0

Platform Setup #

• Android: Added android.intent.action.TTS_SERVICE <queries> intent to AndroidManifest.xml for Android 11+ package visibility
• iOS: Configured AVAudioSession with .playback category and .mixWithOthers option in AppDelegate.swift so TTS audio is heard even when the ring/silent switch is off

• Bug fixing and improvements:
• • Minor bug fixes

Version 0.2.2- November 25, 2025 #

• Improvement and new features:
• • Challenge hint animations: Display GIF/Lottie animations to guide users through challenges
• • Customizable hint positions: Choose from multiple positions (top center, bottom center, corners)
• • Per-challenge hint configuration: Configure hints individually for each challenge type
• • Optional custom animations: Users can provide their own GIF or Lottie files
• • Flexible hint display: Enable/disable hints globally or per challenge
• • Default hint animations: Built-in GIFs for blink, smile, nod, and head rotation challenges

Version 0.2.1- November 24, 2025 #

• Bug fixing, improvements and new features:

• This version has several improvements in anti-spoofing techniques:

• Anti-Spoofing Result Map

• Screen Glare Detection

• Motion Correlation Check

• Face Contour Analysis (Mask Detection)

• Details:

• Bug fixing: Ignoring wrong error message (errorProcessing) after session.isComplete.

• Bug fixing: Fixing glare detection method and adding option to enable/disable it.

• Improving verifyMotionCorrelation method. Now checking both X and Y axes.

• Adding params to enable/disable motion correlation detection.

• Adding mask detection feature by detection face contours (The user can choose to enable/disable this feature, as well as the number of contours detected. The user can also choose which types of challenges will be checked).

• Anti-spoofing settings: Screen reflection detection and missing facial contour detection no longer block liveness detection.

• Anti-spoofing detection is configured in the metadata under antiSpoofingDetection flags (Anti-Spoofing Result Map), without preventing successful results.

• Added support for new liveness challenges: "Raise Eyebrows" and "Open Mouth"
• Improved face detection accuracy with updated ML models
• Enhanced UI customization options for better theming
• Fixed minor bugs and improved overall performance

• Google ML Kit upgraded to version 0.11.0
• Bug fixes and improvements

• Bug fixes and improvements

• Bug fixes and improvements
• Android fix initialization fix

• Bug fixes and improvements
• Android fix initialization fix

  • Random challenge sequence generation
  • Face centering guidance with visual feedback
  • Anti-spoofing measures
  • Customizable UI with theming support
  • Animated progress indicators and overlays
  • Optional image capture capability
