Updating to Capacitor 7.0[ΒΆ](#updating-to-capacitor-70 "Permanent link") Capacitor 7.0 is finally here and brings a lot of improvements! Make sure to check out the [official announcement post](https://ionic.io/blog/capacitor-7-has-hit-ga) from the Ionic team. In this article, you can find out what breaking changes have been made to the Capawesome plugins. AI-Assisted Upgrade For a more guided experience, add the [Capawesome skills](https://github.com/capawesome-team/skills) to your project with `npx skills add capawesome-team/skills --skill capacitor-app-upgrades` and use the following prompt with your preferred AI coding assistant: `` [](#%5F%5Fcodelineno-0-1)Use the `capacitor-app-upgrades` skill from `capawesome-team/skills` to help me upgrade my Capacitor app to Capacitor 7. `` ## Plugins[ΒΆ](#plugins "Permanent link") The following plugin functionality has been modified or removed.

More information can be found in the respective `BREAKING.md` file of each plugin. ### App Update[ΒΆ](#app-update "Permanent link") * The `country` property has been replaced by the `appId` property in the `OpenAppStoreOptions` interface. ### Cloudinary[ΒΆ](#cloudinary "Permanent link") * On Android, the `cloudinaryAndroidVersion` variable has been updated to `3.0.2`. ### Firebase Analytics[ΒΆ](#firebase-analytics "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseAnalyticsVersion` variable has been updated to `22.2.0`. ### Firebase App[ΒΆ](#firebase-app "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseCommonVersion` variable has been updated to `21.0.0`. ### Firebase App Check[ΒΆ](#firebase-app-check "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseAppCheckPlayIntegrityVersion` variable has been updated to `18.0.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseAppCheckDebugVersion` variable has been updated to `18.0.0`. ### Firebase Authentication[ΒΆ](#firebase-authentication "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `facebookLoginVersion` variable has been updated to `18.0.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseAuthVersion` variable has been updated to `23.1.0`. * On Android, the `playServicesAuthVersion` variable has been updated to `20.7.0`. * On Android, the `accessToken` and `serverAuthCode` are now only requested when the `scopes` option is set. * Error codes are now prefixed with `auth/` to be consistent with the Firebase Web SDK. ### Firebase Crashlytics[ΒΆ](#firebase-crashlytics "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseCrashlyticsVersion` variable has been updated to `19.4.0`. ### Firebase Firestore[ΒΆ](#firebase-firestore "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseFirestoreVersion` variable has been updated to `25.1.1`. * Error codes are now prefixed with `firestore/` to be consistent with the Firebase Web SDK. ### Firebase Functions[ΒΆ](#firebase-functions "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseFunctionsVersion` variable has been updated to `21.1.0`. ### Firebase Messaging[ΒΆ](#firebase-messaging "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseMessagingVersion` variable has been updated to `24.1.0`. ### Firebase Performance[ΒΆ](#firebase-performance "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebasePerfVersion` variable has been updated to `21.0.4`. * The web implementation now throws an error when a `trace` is not found for a given `traceName`. This behavior was already in place on iOS and Android in earlier versions. ### Firebase Remote Config[ΒΆ](#firebase-remote-config "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseConfigVersion` variable has been updated to `22.1.0`. ### Firebase Storage[ΒΆ](#firebase-storage "Permanent link") * The Firebase Javascript SDK has been updated to `11.2.0`. * On Android, the `firebaseStorageVersion` variable has been updated to `21.0.1`. ### Live Update[ΒΆ](#live-update "Permanent link") * The `getBundle()` method has been replaced by the `getCurrentBundle()` method. * The `setBundle()` method has been replaced by the `setNextBundle()` method. * The `checksum` property has been removed from the `DownloadBundleOptions` interface.

Previously, the resolution was `640x480`. * On iOS, make sure to set the deployment target in your `ios/App/Podfile` to at least `15.5`. * All the methods related to the torch have been moved into a separate [Capacitor Torch plugin](/docs/sdks/capacitor/torch/). If you want to use the torch, just install the `@capawesome/capacitor-torch` package. * The `barcodeScanned` event has been replaced by the `barcodesScanned` event. The event payload now contains an array of `Barcode` objects instead of a single `Barcode` object since multiple barcodes can be scanned at the same time. ### ML Face Detection[ΒΆ](#ml-face-detection "Permanent link") * On Android, the `mlkitFaceDetectionVersion` variable has been updated to `16.1.7`. * On iOS, make sure to set the deployment target in your `ios/App/Podfile` to at least `15.5`. ### ML Selfie Segmentation[ΒΆ](#ml-selfie-segmentation "Permanent link") * On Android, the `mlkitSelfieSegmentationVersion` variable has been updated to `16.0.0-beta6`. * On iOS, make sure to set the deployment target in your `ios/App/Podfile` to at least `15.5`. ### ML Translation[ΒΆ](#ml-translation "Permanent link") * On Android, the `mlkitTranslateVersion` variable has been updated to `17.0.3`. * On iOS, make sure to set the deployment target in your `ios/App/Podfile` to at least `15.5`. ### NFC[ΒΆ](#nfc "Permanent link") * On iOS, the `id` property of the `NfcTag` interface was returned reversed for ISO 15693 tags. This issue has been fixed in this version. The `id` property is now returned correctly and behaves the same way as on Android.
