+## News
+
+* More kudos to the application-services team for introducing the new sync-logins [component](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/tree/main/components/service/sync-logins) and [sample app](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/tree/main/samples/sync-logins).
+
+## Changelog
+
+* [Commits](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/compare/v0.22...v0.23),
+[Milestone](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/milestone/23?closed=1),
+[API reference](https://mozilla-mobile.github.io/android-components/api/0.23/index)
+
+* Compiled against:
+ * Android
+ * SDK: 27
+ * Support Libraries: 27.1.1
+ * Kotlin
+ * Standard library: 1.2.61
+ * Coroutines: 0.23.4
+ * GeckoView
+ * Nightly: **64.0.20180905100117** 🔺
+ * Beta: **63.0b3** (0269319281578bff4e01d77a21350bf91ba08620) 🔺
+ * Release: **62.0** (9cbae12a3fff404ed2c12070ad475424d0ae869f) 🔺
+
+* Added initial documentation for the browser-session component: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/main/components/browser/session/README.md
+* **sync-logins**: New component for integrating with Firefox Sync (for Logins). A sample app showcasing this new functionality can be found at: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/tree/main/samples/sync-logins
+* **browser-engine-***:
+ * Added support for fullscreen mode and the ability to exit it programmatically if needed.
+ ```Kotlin
+ session.register(object : Session.Observer {
+ fun onFullScreenChange(enabled: Boolean) {
+ if (enabled) {
+ // ..
+ sessionManager.getEngineSession().exitFullScreenMode()
+ }
+ }
+ })
+ ```
+* **concept-engine**, **browser-engine-system**, **browser-engine-gecko(-beta/nightly)**:
+ * We've extended support for intercepting requests to also include intercepting of errors
+ ```Kotlin
+ val interceptor = object : RequestInterceptor {
+ override fun onErrorRequest(
+ session: EngineSession,
+ errorCode: Int,
+ uri: String?
+ ) {
+ engineSession.loadData("<html><body>Couldn't load $uri!</body></html>")
+ }
+ }
+ // GeckoEngine (beta/nightly) and SystemEngine support request interceptors.
+ GeckoEngine(runtime, DefaultSettings(requestInterceptor = interceptor))
+ ```
+* **browser-engine-system**:
+ * Added functionality to clear all browsing data
+ ```Kotlin
+ sessionManager.getEngineSession().clearData()
+ ```
+ * `onNavigationStateChange` is now called earlier (when the title of a web page is available) to allow for faster toolbar updates.
+* **feature-session**: Added support for processing `ACTION_SEND` intents (`ACTION_VIEW` was already supported)
+
+ ```Kotlin
+ // Triggering a search if the provided EXTRA_TEXT is not a URL
+ val searchHandler: TextSearchHandler = { searchTerm, session ->
+ searchUseCases.defaultSearch.invoke(searchTerm, session)
+ }
+
+ // Handles both ACTION_VIEW and ACTION_SEND intents
+ val intentProcessor = SessionIntentProcessor(
+ sessionUseCases, sessionManager, textSearchHandler = searchHandler
+ )
+ intentProcessor.process(intent)
+ ```
+* Replaced some miscellaneous uses of Java 8 `forEach` with Kotlin's for consistency and backward-compatibility.
+* Various bug fixes (see [Commits](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/compare/v0.22...v0.23) for details).
