Capacitor Plugins: Check Both Native Platforms
A web feature works in the browser but needs different permissions on iOS and Android. This guide gives you a small, testable way to approach the issue before changing a live system.
A practical workflow
- Choose a maintained plugin and inspect its platform setup and minimum versions.
- Test permission denial, app resume and a real device on each platform.
What to check
A browser preview cannot validate native plugin lifecycle behavior. Compare the result with the original problem and record what changed. If a measurement or test does not support the change, revisit the assumption rather than adding more complexity.
Keep the experiment small enough to reverse. Document the starting state, the change and the result so another person can repeat the process. Product menus and versions can change, so check the current documentation for your environment.
