userType in the payload which was giving a
401 error (#413). Thanks to @philipwlewis for reporting and fix
proposition.read.csv() now uses encoding = "UTF-8"
to better deal with non-ascii characters (#394).
Setting locale in queries via the hlargument now
returns data (@marcf-91). For example,
gtrends(keyword = "Macron", geo = "FR", hl = "fr").
It was difficult to maintain an up-to-date database of all
country codes supported by Google because they do not provide such a
list. gtrends() now only checks the syntax structure of the
entered code to make sure it matches the iso format (#390).
gtrends() as a new parameter
compared_breakdown. When set to TRUE, then the
relative hits across the keywords will be returned. Can only be used if
one geo is used conjointly with more than one keyword. For
example:
head(gtrends(keyword = c("nhl", "nba"), geo = "CA", compared_breakdown = TRUE)$interest_by_region)
(#404).Skip internet-based tests on CRAN that were found to randomly fail on Debian machine and locally under Ubuntu-latest (#384).
Explicitly verify if internet is available before launching the unit tests (#379).
Added support for NULL proxy domain, and additional curl options (#339) @alfirrell.
Handling related topics with only “Top” or “Rising” sections, as well as those with both @alfirrell.

Fixes issues with Google Trends API changes.
time = "all" (#309).
@JBleherAdded more options to specify time interval of the search (#289). @JBleher

Fixed also issues with different results when requests were issued from different time zones and different locale settings.
Download multiple time ranges for direct comparison.
Now also an option to only download interest over time is added.
Showing the returned status code when it is failing (i.e. not 200) (#304).
Bug fix keyword encoding when there are multiple keywords with ‘&’. (#300, #301) @ThiesDS
gtrendsR can now be used behind a proxy, see

Fixes breaking changes introduced by Google Trends (#273, #274)
Now able to search with “&” character (#267).
gtrends("A&W", geo = "CA")
gtrendsR now depends on R >= 3.2.0 (#264)
Fixes error when mixing topic and search terms in query (#284) @mamut86
It is now possible to use DMA
(gtrends(keyword="obama",geo="US-AL-630")) (#238).
Added missing country codes (#213).
Can now mix both country and sub country codes
(plot(gtrends("pizza", geo = c("CA", "GB-ENG"))))
(#218).
New parameter low_search_volume allowing low search
volume regions (#229).
Fixing breaking changes that were introduced by Google Trends (#252) @kevinmager65.
Can now search without keywords
(gtrends(geo = c("CA"), category = 20)).
gtrendsR
has been almost re-written form scratch. One big visible change is that
signing into a Google account is no longer required to download data
from Google Trends.Added missing all DMAs within the US (#146).
gtrendsR now correctly use the hl (local) parameter
to retrieve data (@antaldaniel).
Better support for queries using non-ascii keywords
(gtrends("österreich")).
Added some missing country codes (#94).
data("countries").
Now able to specify for which Google products the request is
performed using the gprop parameter (#112). Possible values
are froogle for Google shopping, new for
Google news, youtube for YouTube videos and
images for Google images.
Now able to query using Google categories ?gtrends
(#89).
Returned data is now tidy (#110). The trend object
now contains keyword, hits and
location header
(head(sport_trend$trend)).
Fixing a bug where overriding countries variable was
breaking package’s functionalities (#109).
Correct default fallback for querying for google.user and google.password in gconnect (#121)

limit is reached (#90).
A ggplot2 object can now be returned for further customization.
plot(gtrends("NHL")) + ggtitle("NHL trend") + theme(legend.position="none")
Support for hourly and daily data (#67). For example, it is now
possible to have hourly data for the last seven days with
gtrends("nhl", geo = "CA", res = "7d"). Use
?gtrends for more information about the time resolution
supported by the package.
Support for categories (#46). Ex.:
gtrends("NHL", geo = "US", cat = "0-20") will search only
in the sport category.
Some countries (ex: Hong Kong) were missing from the list (#69).
Various typos and documentation work.
Added support for sub-countries (#25). Ex.:
gtrends("NHL", geo = "CA-QC") will return trends data for
Québec province in Canada. The list of supported sub-countries can be
obtained via data(countries).
Data parsing should work for any data returned by Google Trends (i.e. countries independent).
Better support for queries using keywords in different languages
(#50, #57). Ex.: gtrends("蘋果", geo = "TW")
Now able to specify up to five countries (#53) via
gtrends("NHL", geo = c("CA", "US"))
Fixing issue #51 allowing UK-based queries via
geo = "GB"
gtrends("montréal").
