 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 
 
+## [4.1.8] - 13-JAN-2026
+
+### Added
+* Added `activesupport` gem as a runtime dependency to prevent test failures if gem is not already installed.
+* Added `DataSource.read_file` method capable of reading from `.yml`, `.json`, `.csv`, or `.xml` data files, and accepting
+  `options` hash for specifying hash key and value conversions to data being read prior to passing to `DataPresenter` objects.
+
+### Changed
+* Refactored `EnvironData.read` method to allow passing `options` hash for specifying hash key and value conversions to
+  data being read prior to passing to `DataPresenter` objects.
+* Refactored `ScreenObject.populate_data_fields` and `ScreenSection.populate_data_fields` methods to support passing a
+`Symbol` for a UI element's name to support using `DataPresenter` object attributes to source data.
+* Updated `appium_lib` gem to version 16.1.1.
+* Updated `appium_lib_core` gem to version 11.2.0.
+
+### Removed
+* Unused `DataObject` class has been removed.
+* Removed unused `DataSource.read_yaml_node_data` and `DataSource.read_json_node_data` methods.
