Changelog

2.0.1

• 🩺 Removed documentation images from NPM release (20MB+ -> 17kb package size)

2.0.0

• ➕ Added header tracking

  When the hidden image is loaded, header information sent along with the request will be saved in the database. This is useful to determine if the tracker was invoked not by a genuine open, but by a proxy caching email resources beforehand (GMail does this for example).

• 🩺 Fixed mobile layout issues

Migration notice

If you've previously used v1.0.0, you'll need to run the following SQL on your SQLite .db, in order to make it compatible with v2.0.0:
