This change might cause issues if you have an Android application that perhaps
you want to use GPS on the phone but also want to allow to run on Chromebooks?
I got an email recently from Google about the android.hardware.location.gps
permission:
“In preparation for the release of Chromebooks support for the Google Play
Store and Android apps, we've been proactively testing the most key and popular
applications in Google Play, including *** for compatibility.
We wanted to let you know, currently your app isn't compatible on Chrome OS
devices due to manifest entry android.hardware.location.gps. If you want to
make it compatible, Please read our guide on App Manifest Compatibility for
more details on how to ensure your app is compatible.”
I don’t have a Chromebook to try out what happens with this plugin there… I
think for the Chromebook case you would need required=false and the geolocation
would need to fail gracefully or the application code would need to check the
useragent and not call the plugin?
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps"
android:required="false" />
Has anyone tried a Cordova application on a Chromebook?
