it right can be challenging. With [Ionic's recent decision to discontinue new customer sales of its commercial products](https://ionic.io/blog/important-announcement-the-future-of-ionics-commercial-products), including Auth Connect, many teams building Capacitor apps are now looking for a reliable alternative. That's why we built the [Capacitor OAuth plugin](/docs/sdks/capacitor/oauth/) — a production-ready solution for integrating OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect authentication into your Capacitor applications across Android, iOS, and web. The plugin is now available for all Capawesome [Insiders](/docs/insiders/). ## [Alternative to the Ionic Identity Vault Plugin](/blog/alternative-to-ionic-identity-vault-plugin/) Looking for a way to protect sensitive data and authenticate users in your Capacitor app? With [Ionic discontinuing](https://ionic.io/blog/important-announcement-the-future-of-ionics-commercial-products) their commercial Identity Vault plugin, developers need a reliable alternative for **biometric authentication** (Face ID, fingerprint) and secure session management. The [Capacitor Vault plugin](/docs/sdks/capacitor/vault/) from Capawesome is a near drop-in replacement — same active lock pattern, the same method names for the core operations, multi-vault support out of the box, and no enterprise subscription required. For background on the plugin, see our [announcement post](/blog/announcing-the-capacitor-vault-plugin/). ## [Updating to Capacitor 8.0](/blog/updating-to-capacitor-8/) Capacitor 8.0 is finally here and brings a lot of improvements! Make sure to check out the [official announcement post](https://ionic.io/blog/announcing-capacitor-8) from the Ionic team. In this article, you can find out what breaking changes have been made to the Capawesome plugins. For a complete upgrade guide covering all migration approaches, see [How to Upgrade Your Capacitor App to Capacitor 8](/blog/how-to-upgrade-your-capacitor-app-to-capacitor-8/) or [How to Upgrade Your Capacitor Plugin to Capacitor 8](/blog/how-to-upgrade-your-capacitor-plugin-to-capacitor-8/). ## [Capacitor Live Update Plugin 7.3.0 Release](/blog/capacitor-live-update-7-3-0-release/) We are excited to announce version 7.3.0 of the [Capacitor Live Update plugin](/docs/sdks/capacitor/live-update/)! This release introduces two powerful features that make managing over-the-air (OTA) updates even easier: automatic update strategies and rollback protection. These enhancements reduce the amount of code you need to write while providing a more robust update experience for your users. ## [Support 16 KB page sizes in Android with Capacitor](/blog/support-16kb-page-sizes-with-capacitor/) Google Play is introducing a new compatibility requirement that affects Android developers using Capacitor. Starting November 1st, 2025, all new apps and app updates targeting Android 15+ must support 16 KB page sizes on 64-bit devices. This change aims to improve app performance but requires developers to ensure their apps and dependencies are compatible. ## [Showcase: Appreciation Jar - Send appreciative messages to your partner](/blog/showcase-appreciation-jar/) In today's fast-paced digital world, meaningful connection between partners can sometimes get lost in the noise. Appreciation Jar, developed by Stanislav Khromov, offers a refreshing solution: a privacy-first gratitude journaling app based on Capacitor designed specifically for couples to share appreciations and positive thoughts in a secure, intimate space. ## [Exploring the Capacitor Barometer API](/blog/exploring-the-capacitor-barometer-api/) Environmental sensors have become increasingly important in modern mobile applications, enabling developers to create context-aware experiences that respond to real-world conditions. With the [Capacitor Barometer plugin](/docs/sdks/capacitor/barometer/) from Capawesome, developers can integrate precise atmospheric pressure measurements into their Ionic and Capacitor applications, unlocking possibilities for weather monitoring, altitude tracking, and environmental data collection through a streamlined API that delivers accurate barometric readings across Android and iOS platforms. ## [Showcase: LEAGUES - The immersive football viewing app](/blog/showcase-leagues/) LEAGUES is revolutionizing how football fans experience the beautiful game through their innovative mobile app. Built with Capacitor, this app brings the stadium atmosphere directly to your pocket with immersive storytelling and live streaming capabilities. ## [Announcing the Capacitor Barometer Plugin](/blog/announcing-the-capacitor-barometer-plugin/) We're pleased to introduce the [Capacitor Barometer plugin](/docs/sdks/capacitor/barometer/), bringing atmospheric pressure sensing capabilities to your Capacitor applications. This plugin enables precise barometric measurements in hectopascals (hPa) with support for real-time updates and sensor availability detection across Android and iOS platforms. The plugin is now available for all Capawesome [Insiders](/docs/insiders/). ## [Alternative to the Ionic Secure Storage Plugin](/blog/alternative-to-ionic-secure-storage-plugin/) Looking for a secure storage solution for your Capacitor app? With [Ionic discontinuing](https://ionic.io/blog/important-announcement-the-future-of-ionics-commercial-products) their commercial Secure Storage plugin, developers need reliable alternatives for encrypted data storage. The [Capacitor SQLite](/docs/sdks/capacitor/sqlite/) plugin and [Capacitor Secure Preferences](/docs/sdks/capacitor/secure-preferences/) plugin provide modern, secure solutions that address the functionality gap left by Ionic Secure Storage.
