Summary

The Autocapture page still said Autocapture was "available for web only". That is no longer true — Android, iOS, and React Native have all shipped it. This updates the Availability section to say so and links to each SDK's Autocapture section.

SDK Min version Released
Android v8.10.0 2026-09-02
iOS (Swift) v6.6.0 2026-09-02
React Native v3.7.0 2026-09-09

Links point at the parent #autocapture section on each SDK page, which covers both Screen View & Screen Leave and Click Events. Click events are called out as beta and off by default, matching the per-SDK docs added in #213 and #227.

Closes SDK-164.

Not included

Kept the diff to the Availability section. Worth follow-ups:

  • The rest of the page is still web-centric — "What is Autocapture?" says "your website", and the ## Autocapture events list plus the Dead Clicks / Rage Clicks sections describe webpage behavior and JS SDK thresholds only. The mobile thresholds happen to match (500 ms dead click; 4 taps / 1000 ms / 44 dp rage click), but the prose says "webpage".
  • docs/quickstart/capture-events/autocapture.mdx is still JS-only.
  • Flutter autocaptures screen views but has no click events, so it is not listed here.
  • No changelog entry — this is a correction to a stale availability claim rather than a launch announcement.

Autocapture is no longer web-only: Android (v8.10.0), iOS (v6.6.0), and
React Native (v3.7.0) ship screen view and click autocapture. Update the
Availability section to say so and link to each SDK's Autocapture section.
Click events are noted as beta and off by default.

On web, Autocapture is available via Mixpanel’s [JavaScript SDK](/docs/tracking-methods/sdks/javascript). To turn it on, ensure you have the config `{autocapture: true}` set in the SDK.

Autocapture is also available on mobile via the [Android](/docs/tracking-methods/sdks/android#autocapture) (v8.10.0 or later), [iOS](/docs/tracking-methods/sdks/swift#autocapture) (v6.6.0 or later), and [React Native](/docs/tracking-methods/sdks/react-native#autocapture) (v3.7.0 or later) SDKs. These SDKs capture screen views, clicks, dead clicks, and rage clicks. Click events are in beta and are turned off by default — see each SDK’s Autocapture section to set them up.

Let's add a note that screen views are supported in Flutter and that clicks/dead clicks/ rage clicks are coming soon.

I think you could just add Flutter in the list, and add note like this:
"These SDKs capture screen views, clicks, dead clicks, and rage clicks (only screen views are currently available for Flutter)"
