# Product updates: July 2026

> ARGOS Identity product updates for July 2026

Hello, this is ARGOS Identity.

Here are the new features and improvements we delivered in July.

***

## Device verification extended through the capture stages

<span style={{backgroundColor: '#EEF4FF', color: '#0064FF', padding: '4px 12px', borderRadius: '16px', fontSize: '13px', fontWeight: '600'}}>New Feature</span>

Device verification previously ran **only once, at liveform entry**. That left a gap: after passing the check at entry, an attacker could **forge the camera path at the moment the ID or selfie was captured** and bypass verification.

With this update, verification now extends **through ID capture and selfie capture**. Values are collected again at each capture stage and **compared against the values from the initial entry** to determine whether the device or environment was swapped in between.

### Three verification points

| Verification point | When it occurs | Checks performed                                              |
| ------------------ | -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `entry`            | Liveform entry | Device (Static check), Fingerprint (includes duplicate check) |
| `idCapture`        | ID capture     | Device, Sensor, Fingerprint + **comparison against entry**    |
| `selfie`           | Selfie capture | Device, Sensor, Fingerprint + **comparison against entry**    |

Each capture stage's values are compared against **the values from the initial entry**.

<Note>
  **Device Duplicate Check runs only at entry.** Duplicate checks are not executed or recorded at the capture stages. This prevents users from being rejected because their own earlier stage was flagged as a duplicate.
</Note>

## New Sensor verification

<span style={{backgroundColor: '#EEF4FF', color: '#0064FF', padding: '4px 12px', borderRadius: '16px', fontSize: '13px', fontWeight: '600'}}>New Feature</span>

**Sensor verification** has been added as a new verification type. It collects the device's **motion sensor signals** at the moment the ID or selfie is captured, detecting attempts to inject pre-prepared images from emulators, virtual machines, or automation tools.

Enable it with a single toggle in the **Device Info** tab under [Project Management > Policy and Authentication > Authentication Enhancement and Forgery Prevention](/dashboard/en/project-management/policy-and-authentication/anti-fraud-and-forgery-prevention#sensor-verification). It runs at ID capture and selfie capture only — these stages are fixed, and it does not run at entry.

<Warning>
  **Legitimate users may also fail in webview (in-app browser) environments**

  Some in-app browsers do not deliver device sensor signals, so Sensor verification can fail even when a real user captures with a real device. Before enabling this option, review how your users reach the liveform and, if needed, prompt them to **open it in an external browser**. See the [WebView integration guide](/en/idcheck/getting-started/liveform-webview-guide) for details.

  **If you host the liveform in a native app WebView**, the **app must grant device motion/sensor permission**. If the app does not grant sensor permission, sensor signals are never delivered and even legitimate users fail.
</Warning>

## Fingerprint verification triggers

<span style={{backgroundColor: '#EEF4FF', color: '#0064FF', padding: '4px 12px', borderRadius: '16px', fontSize: '13px', fontWeight: '600'}}>Feature Improvement</span>

Fingerprint option now includes **verification triggers**, letting you select the stages where Fingerprint is additionally called.

| Stage              | Description                                |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------ |
| **At entry**       | Always runs. It cannot be unchecked.       |
| **ID capture**     | Calls Fingerprint again at ID capture.     |
| **Selfie capture** | Calls Fingerprint again at selfie capture. |

At the capture stages, it **only compares whether the visitorId matches the entry stage** to confirm it is the same device.

## Dashboard — redesigned verification results view

<span style={{backgroundColor: '#EEF4FF', color: '#0064FF', padding: '4px 12px', borderRadius: '16px', fontSize: '13px', fontWeight: '600'}}>Feature Improvement</span>

With more verification points, the **Device Verification** view has been redesigned.

* **List** — **Sensor** has been added to the `Type` column, so Device / Sensor / Fingerprint are all visible in one list.
* **Detail** — a `Step` field shows which point (`entry` / `idCapture` / `selfie`) a verification belongs to.
* **Step Consistency** — capture-stage verifications now show the **comparison result against entry**, including the baseline verification (`Baseline Validation ID`), whether values matched, and any mismatched items.

<Frame caption="Verification detail — Step field and Step Consistency">

</Frame>

<Info>
  **Up to 8 Validation IDs per user**

  A Validation ID is issued **for each verification point × verification type**. With all options enabled, a single KYC session for one user produces up to 8. Seeing several rows at around the same time in the list is expected — use the `Step` field in the detail view to tell them apart.
</Info>

<Tip>
  For field-by-field descriptions, see the [Device Verification pre-verification list](/dashboard/en/preverification/device-verification) document.

## Bug fixes

* Fixed an issue where the pre-verification list showed fewer items than actually existed after ID capture retries.
* Fixed an issue where a submission's pre-verification list was not displayed accurately.
* Fixed an issue where Device Verification and Selfie items did not match each other in the verification list of user submissions.
* Fixed an issue where Raw Values data was displayed incorrectly in the Fingerprint verification detail view.
* Fixed an issue where the final result was incorrectly shown as Fail even though Device Static Match had actually passed.
* Fixed an issue where Device Detection info and Verification Status were shown as empty during Device verification.
* Fixed an issue where motion permission and probe result items were not displayed in the dashboard's Session Journey view.
* Fixed an issue where the sensor permission popup did not appear during Knowledge-based selfie capture. The permission popup now appears as it does with Active Liveness.
