<Update label="2026.03.04">
  ### Documentation updates

  Documentation for the **React Native SDK** (user-controlled wallets) was updated
  to reflect the latest SDK and to separate legacy V1 content:

  * The main page now covers installation, social login configuration, upgrading
    from V1, and the full SDK API references.
  * `addListener`, `removeAllListeners`, and `EventListener` are marked deprecated
    but still supported in V1.
  * Now the preferred way to subscribe to SDK events (such as forgot PIN, resend
    OTP) is via Expo's `NativeModule.addListener()` using the `CIRCLE_PW_ON_EVENT`
    constant and the `CirclePwEventPayload` interface.
  * A dedicated legacy page was added for V1-only setups.

  The following topics were updated and added, respectively:

  * [React Native SDK](/sdks/user-controlled/react-native-sdk)
  * [React Native SDK V1 (Legacy)](/wallets/user-controlled/react-native-sdk-v1)
</Update>

  Station:

<Update label="2026.01.20">
  ### Documentation updates

  Complete rewrites of the **user-controlled wallet quickstarts** for **Social
  Login**, **Email OTP**, and **PIN** to improve clarity, consistency, and
  developer usability. The new quickstarts emphasize building a runnable
  end-to-end app that demonstrates authentication, wallet creation, and onchain
  actions. Backend routes were restructured to clearly map frontend actions to the
  corresponding Circle API endpoints. The updates make the wallet lifecycle, SDK
  usage, and backend integration patterns more explicit and easier to follow for
  first-time integrators.

  The following topics were updated and renamed:

  * [Create User Wallets with Social Login](/wallets/user-controlled/build-a-wallet-app#social-login)
  * [Create User Wallets with Email OTP](/wallets/user-controlled/build-a-wallet-app#email-otp)
  * [Create User Wallets with PIN](/wallets/user-controlled/build-a-wallet-app#pin)
</Update>
